Autumn Weaves Beanie

Nothing is more relaxing than sitting on the back porch with a mug of hot coffee and a simple knitting project in hand, watching leaves fall, and enjoying the autumn weather. The Autumn Weaves Beanie pattern is perfect for such an afternoon! This design features an eye-catching texture that is an ideal showcase for any solid or variegated yarn of your choice. The fabric is thick, squishy, and warm: perfect for those chilly fall nights! It will make wonderful stock for handmade markets or great gifts for anyone on your list; and with three sizing options, you can even make matching sets for the whole family. This pattern is perfect for the beginning knitter who is comfortable working with circular needles. ***Materials*** * Approximately 125 (165, 200) yds of worsted weight (4) yarn.
