As the title suggests, this Easy Stripes Beanie Hat pattern is perfect for knitters of all skill levels. With the delightful benefit of self-striping yarn, this project allows you to create a beautiful beanie without the hassle of changing yarn colors. It’s crafted using less than one 100g skein of yarn, making it a quick and easy project that can be completed in just a few hours.

Difficulty: Easy
Yarn: 1 x 100g King Cole Riot Chunky – For the hat featured in this pattern, I chose the beautiful Seashore colorway, which showcases vibrant stripes as you knit.
Needles: One 6mm circular needle (US size 10) will suffice for this project.
Notes: When you reach the decreasing phase for the top of the hat, feel free to switch to double pointed needles (dpns) or employ the Magic Loop method to maintain the shape of your work without stretching it out.
Tension: Aim for 14 stitches and 10 rows in stockinette stitch to achieve the perfect fit.
Whether you’re making this Easy Stripes Beanie Hat for yourself or as a thoughtful gift for a loved one, it’s a wonderful way to practice your knitting skills and experiment with color. Enjoy the satisfaction of creating a stylish and cozy accessory that will keep you warm throughout the winter months!
