The beanie pattern is available in four sizes, making it suitable for a wide range of ages—from children aged 4 years old to adults. The sizes include S, M, L, and XL, and the design is easily adjustable if you require a different fit, ensuring everyone can enjoy this festive creation.
Size: S (M) L (XL)—ideal for ages 4 and up. With simple customization options, you can easily modify the size to suit your needs.
Yarn: For this project, we recommend using Drops Merino Extra Fine (Aran) yarn. The sample beanie showcased in the accompanying photo is beautifully knitted using classic colors: Off White (01) and Red (11). This combination captures the essence of Christmas perfectly.
Yarn Requirements for Size M: To create this lovely beanie in size M, you will need approximately 30 grams (about 1.06 ounces) of off white yarn and about 85 grams (about 3 ounces) of red yarn. Be sure to stock up on these vibrant colors to make your beanie truly festive!
Needles: To achieve the perfect gauge, use the needle size that works for you. The recommended needle size for Drops Merino Extra Fine is 4mm/ US 6. However, the sample beanie was lovingly knitted using size 3.5mm / US 4 circular needles as well as double-pointed needles, providing versatility in your knitting experience.
Gauge: For this beanie, you'll want to aim for a gauge of 10 stitches = 5cm (approximately 2 inches) of stockinette stitch. Getting the right gauge is essential to ensure your beanie fits perfectly and is as cozy as can be.
