On my long road trip to Oregon from the Bay Area I was able to knit three of these beannies. My husband did all the driving and I sat content to have something to do on our long journey. After finishing two beannies I ran out of yarn and stopped off in Eugene and purchased this yarn at a great Knitting Store called Soft Horizons https://www.softhorizonsfibre.com/. The staff were super friendly and informative. Definitely a gem and just a few blocks from The University of Oregon. Great campus by the way! I call it this one the EUGENE BEANNIE! These beannies are super easy to make very trendy right now. Free pattern below... |
Maeve’s KNIT HAT - The Eugene Beannie I use an acrylic or wool and size 9 needles. Approximately One ball of yarn should do 1 hat but best have more on hand just in case you run out. Cast on 72 stitches
Decreasing:
Leave a long string for sewing and loop string thru the remaining 10 stitches and sew (or crochet) wrong sides together making sure you have the curled in edge on the inside as this is your finished look. |
