Loveknit Scrap Yarn Beanie

Size: Adult

Yarn: The Beanie is knitted using leftover yarn. Use different yarn qualities of approximately the same thickness, together with 2 strands of kid silk mohair in different colours. Use whatever you have in your stash.

For our beanie, we used stripes of brushed alpaca held single and Easy Care merino, together with 2 strands of kid silk mohair.

Gauge: 10 sts = 10 cm on 9 mm needles.

The entire Beanie is knitted in 1x1 rib (k1, p1).

You will need a 9 mm circular needle (40 cm), as well as 8 or 9 mm double-pointed needles. You will also need 3 stitch markers. One of the markers should be different from the other two, so you can easily identify the beginning of the round.
