Margareta Beanie

Margareta, the charming Italian name for the Daisy, effortlessly captures the essence of this cheerful flower and has served as a delightful inspiration for many knitters. This beautifully designed hat features a corolla made of whimsical bobbles that cleverly enclose a textured moss stitch circle, all set against a backdrop of elegant reverse stockinette stitch. For those looking to create a cohesive look, don’t forget to check out the Margareta Cowl available in my library, perfect for a matching set!

This stunning hat is expertly worked in the round, making it suitable for both double pointed needles and a 40cm circular needle for crafting the body. For the intricate crown shaping, double pointed needles are recommended to achieve the perfect fit. The design begins with a classic 1/1 rib, where the knitted stitches are twisted for a clean, polished finish. The lovely leaves are skillfully created using traveling knit stitches, while the bobbles are designed as a non-turn variety, ensuring they are not only easy to execute but also delightfully plump and satisfying to create.

Whether you're seeking a new project for yourself or a thoughtful handmade gift, this hat is sure to brighten up any chilly day.
