Galaxy Swirl Beanie

Discover the mesmerizing beauty of swirling galaxies with this stunning beanie pattern, featuring captivating variations that allow for 3, 5, or 7 colorful swirls. Available in three sizes, this knitting pattern is perfect for anyone looking to add a touch of cosmic charm to their winter wardrobe.

VARIATIONS:

For those who want to explore different textures and effects, consider using 2 strands of fingering weight yarn instead of the standard 1 strand of DK weight yarn. This method not only adds depth to your creation but also allows for creative marled effects. To enhance your beanie even further, try holding one strand constant while varying the second strand. You might even use a strand of mohair for that ethereal halo effect, giving your galaxy-inspired hat a unique, cloud-like appearance.

Our model photos showcase the Adult Medium/Large size featuring a stunning 7-color variation on a man with a head circumference of 58.5cm/23”, proving that this beanie is as stylish as it is warm. Additionally, you'll find the Teen/Adult Small size, which displays a chic 3-color variation on a woman with a head circumference of 54cm/21”. For added flair, the pompom on the Adult Medium/Large hat was crafted using a 6.5cm/2.5” pompom maker, making it a delightful finishing touch to your project.

Whether you’re knitting for yourself or creating a special gift, this beanie pattern is not only a fun knitting project but also an eye-catching accessory that celebrates the beauty of the universe. Grab your needles and let your creativity swirl!
