Easy Knit Beanie (Circular)

Easy knit pattern for a **fitted, slouchy or folded cuff beanie** hat. Ideal for beginners as a **first circular needle project** knitting in the round. **Full pattern video tutorial:** https://youtu.be/gaMDgtRKpQc **Sizing & Gauge** **8 sizes** now available from newborn **baby to XL** adult. While standard aran gauge of 18x24 is suggested, **exact gauge is not important** (especially vertical row gauge) as the hat is quite stretchy & you knit it to a certain length. The hat is your swatch, there’s no need for test squares. :smile: 5mm is the pattern needle size as that's standard for aran yarn, but **I suggest using the needle size on the yarn ball band**. I used smaller 4.5mm needles to knit the lilac hat as that's the standard size for Lion Brand Feels Like Butta. **Yarn Amounts** You need 1 small 50g ball of yarn for baby sizes or 2 small balls/1 big ball to make a hat for a child or adult (with some leftover).
