Please note this is a KNITTING PATTERN ONLY with an easy skill level. You will not receive a finished beanie. You will receive a downloadable PDF file (in English) that provides written instructions, a chart and a link to a helpful technique tutorial so you can knit the Color Burst Beanie yourself.
The Color Burst Beanie is the perfect project for you to experiment with alllll the fun color combos you can imagine! Knit with super bulky yarn, this baby begins with a half-twisted rib brim to add a little bit of texture. Moving into the body of the beanie, you work with simple, two-stitch chart repeats that are easy to memorize. And although four colors are used to create the design, you only ever use two colors at a time. All these features make this beanie a blast to knit, super approachable to anyone who’s never tried colorwork before (yet still satisfying for colorwork pros) and one of those patterns you’ll definitely want knit again and again!
