Create a charming and comfortable beanie with our easy 8ply Beanie knitting pattern! This delightful pattern features a cozy 1x1 rib brim and is designed using a simple slip stitch technique for a stylish striped effect that's perfect for keeping little heads warm.

The pattern accommodates various sizes, making it suitable for children aged 2-5 years and 6-10 years, as well as teens and ladies. To ensure a perfect fit, the beanie is designed to fit head circumferences of 52 (54-55-56) cm, which translates to approximately 20½ (21¼-21¾-22) inches.

For this project, you'll need Lincraft Supersoft 8ply yarn. Each ball weighs 50g and offers a generous length of 100m. Depending on the size you choose, you'll require 1 (1-1-1) ball each of the main color and the contrast color, allowing you to be creative with your color choices.

To bring your beanie to life, you'll need a pair of 4.00mm knitting needles (equivalent to UK 8 or US 6), along with a wool needle for sewing up your finished creation.

When it comes to tension, aim for 22 stitches and 30 rows over a 10cm (4 inches) square when using 4.00mm needles in stocking stitch. This will ensure your beanie has the perfect shape and fit.
