Coral Beanie

Introducing the cozy and fashionable ‘Coral Beanie’ – a beautifully designed cabled hat that showcases a slightly slouchy fit, making it perfect for chilly days and stylish outings. This delightful pattern features cable twists that start tightly at the brim, gradually spreading out as they approach the crown, creating a stunning visual effect. There's no need to switch between needle sizes after working the brim, as the tighter cable crosses in the beginning naturally lead to a snug fit around the forehead. This design ensures that the beanie stays securely in place while still offering comfort and warmth.

To make your knitting experience seamless, I’ve included both detailed written instructions and an easy-to-follow chart for crafting both the brim and the body of the hat. You’ll find written instructions for the crown decrease rounds at the end, guiding you step by step through the finishing touches. For those who prefer a taller hat, I’ve included a handy modification note to help you easily add extra height before starting the decrease rounds.

Materials Needed for the ‘Coral Beanie’ include 110 yards of beautiful bulky weight yarn, US 11 (8.0mm) 16” circular needles, US 11 (8.0mm) double-pointed needles, a cable needle, a stitch marker, and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends. With these materials, you’ll be well-equipped to create a stunning beanie that combines functionality and style. Perfect for adventurous knitters looking to enhance their skills, this pattern is suitable for beginners and experienced crafters alike.

Whether you're making this cozy hat for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, the 'Coral Beanie' pattern is sure to be a cherished addition to any winter wardrobe. Get started on your new favorite knitting project today!
