Introducing our stunning Bold Symmetrical Reversible Slouchy Beanie knitting pattern! This fashionable hat is expertly knitted in the round, showcasing a beautiful regular motif pattern that is crafted using the popular Brioche technique. With a charming star crescendo finish at the top, this beanie not only keeps you warm but also adds an artistic flair to your winter wardrobe. Designed with a long-bodied and slightly slouchy fit, this hat uses Aran weight yarn for delightful comfort and warmth.
For those who prefer a different style, we've included additional options to create a shorter body and a snugger-fitting beanie, perfect for a less slouchy look. You can also explore the versatility of using DK weight yarn for a lighter version of this cozy hat. We recommend Rowan Kid Classic yarn, which is a luxurious blend consisting of 70% lambswool, 26% kid mohair, and 4% nylon. For this project, you'll need 2 x 50-gram balls, with the main color (MC) in Green shade 00886 and the contrasting color (CC) in Brown shade 00872—each requiring 1 x 50 grams.
The knitting process requires the use of both 4.5 mm (UK 7/US 7) and 5 mm (UK 6/US 8) circular needles, along with essential notions like locking stitch markers to help keep your project organized. For the best results, ensure you achieve the correct tension—1 repeat of the pattern (including both RIGHT and LEFT DECREASES) should measure approximately 10 cm wide by 5 cm high after blocking.
This Bold Symmetrical Reversible Slouchy Beanie pattern is perfect for intermediate knitters looking to enhance their skills while creating a stylish accessory. Download our FREE knitting pattern now and embrace your creative side with this unique beanie that is sure to turn heads this season!
