Dryad Beanie

Introducing our stylishly simple slouchy beanie knitting pattern, designed for crafters who love quick and rewarding projects. This beanie features a beautiful cable pattern that mimics the elegant knots found in natural wood, adding a unique touch of detail that will elevate your knitting. Not only is it a quick knit, but the use of smaller needles creates negative ease in the brim, ensuring a snug and comfortable fit that keeps your head warm even on chilly days.

This versatile pattern includes helpful suggestions for customizing your beanie, including options to make the fit "slouchier" for a more relaxed look. Crafted specifically for 10ply/Aran weight wool, this pattern is ideal for solid or semi-solid yarns, as they showcase the intricate cable design beautifully. Whether you’re using a vibrant hue or a more muted tone, your beanie will be a standout accessory.

When considering yardage, you'll need 120/140/180/220 meters for the standard beanie sizes. Opting for an extra slouch version will require a bit more yarn. However, you can easily achieve an extra slouchy beanie in the largest size with just one 200g ball of Bendigo Woollen Mills Luxury 10ply. This makes it not only a delightful knit but also a budget-friendly choice for your winter accessories.

The pattern accommodates a variety of sizes, including toddler, child, small adult, and large adult. The largest size fits an adult with a head circumference of up to 63cm, while the smallest toddler size is designed to comfortably fit young children with a head circumference of 43cm to 48cm. This means the whole family can enjoy their own cozy, stylish beanies!
