Hello Everyone!
It’s already day 5 of my 10 days of giving! I know I’ve said this before but time really flies by during these. Today we have another slouchy beanie in a lovely colorway that always gets me commissions this time of year. This slouchy beanie makes a great holiday present and it also makes a great addition to holiday craft fair booths.
This beanie uses a combination of beginner friendly stitches in a way that makes variegated and self striping yarns blend together a bit better. This makes it so the color changes that happen appear more gradient not harsh.
Just reminder that this pattern along with every other pattern published this month will be available as PDF’s when you sign up for my patreon for a small monthly fee of $6.
This post will contain affiliate links. This just means if you make a purchase through some of my links I will receive a small commission at no extra cost to you. I only link to products I personally use and would purchase again.
