Duchess Kate Beanie

Introducing our stylish beanie pattern inspired by the stunning white beanie worn by the Duchess of Cambridge while skiing in the beautiful slopes of Norway. This chic and cozy accessory is perfect for keeping warm during winter outings or adding a touch of elegance to your everyday look.

Crafted in the round using the magic loop technique, this pattern is suitable for knitters of all skill levels. You’ll need 8mm and 9mm circular needles for this project. The magic loop method is an easy and effective way to work with circular needles, and it's a fantastic skill for knitters to master. If you're new to this technique, don't worry—just watch a quick video tutorial to get started. Even beginners will find it approachable and enjoyable!

This stylish beanie uses just one ball of Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick and Quick, weighing 170 grams and measuring 97 meters. The yarn gauge is 9 stitches by 12 rows over 10 cm when using 9mm needles, making this beanie a quick and satisfying knit. To achieve a look similar to Kate's iconic beanie, opt for a bright white yarn. Plus, any leftover yarn can be repurposed to create a trendy 8.5 cm pom pom on top, adding an extra flair to your design.

This pattern is designed to fit the average woman’s head size, ensuring it can be enjoyed by a wide range of wearers. Whether you’re knitting for yourself or as a thoughtful gift, this beanie is a delightful addition to any winter wardrobe.
