This not so basic, slightly slouchy beanie is a fresh take on the modern, store bought look that's gaining traction lately - it will be a perfect gift for that someone on your list who prefers things simple. Knit from just one skein of Bespoke DK, it will warm your head in style. I was inspired by the yarn itself - cashmere shines in simple, minimalist designs! This pattern includes two versions of crown shaping - traditional rounded one pictured on grey hat and a new structured one - see cream hat photo for a visual. Pick either one or knit one of each! Matching [scarf][2] and [cowl][3] are available! > **RIB WELT KNIT-ALONG** Until Jan 5, 2025 we have a [knit-along][4] for all > three Rib Welt pattern in my group, > come and join us! **YARN** Clinton Hill Cashmere Company Bespoke DK – 100% cashmere; 125 yards (114 m) per 50 g (1.76 oz) ball 120(140) yards **MEASUREMENTS** Circumference: 20" (22”) head Height: 9.5" **NEEDLES** US#5/3.75mm - 16”/40cm circular needles and DPNs **TOOLS** 2 markers and tapestry needle **GAUGE** 22 sts/29 rows per 4” using US#6/4.00 mm needles in Stockinette stitch post blocking or size to obtain gauge **SKILLS & TECHNIQUES** knitting purling short rows decreases **For more information, see** https://sweaterfreak.com/b/rib-welt-hat [1]: https://www.subscribepage.com/sweaterfreak [2]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rib-welt-scarf [3]: https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/rib-welt-cowl [4]: https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/designs-by-sweaterfreak/4340313/1-25
