Dream Catcher Beanie & Cowl

In designing this hat, I played with different types of elongated and slipped stitches. The resulting texture reminds me of ornamental dreamcatchers, protective dream amulets that bring happiness and good energy. The pattern is for multiple yarn weights, from DK to super bulky and comes with a video tutorial showing some steps of the instructions. As a bonus I also added instructions for knitting a matching cowl. **Skill level**: intermediate **Yarn** The pattern is written for multiple yarn weights: **super bulky** (such as Malabrigo Rasta), **light super bulky** (such as Malabrigo Noventa or Madelintosh ASAP), **bulky** (such as Malabrigo Chunky), **light bulky** (such as Malabrigo Mecha), **aran** (such as DROPS Alaska), **worsted** (such as Malabrigo Rios or Worsted), **DK** (such as Madelinetosh Tosh DK or DROPS Lima). **Yardage** Super bulky: 80 yards / 73 meters Light super bulky: 88 yards / 80 meters Bulky: 100 yards / 91 meters Light bulky: 112 yards / 102 meters Aran: 140 yards / 128 meters Worsted: 150 yards / 137 meters DK: 160 yards / 147 meters **Needles** Super bulky: US 13 / 9 mm and US 11 / 8 mm Light super bulky: US 11 / 8 mm and US 10½ / 6.5 mm Bulky: US 10½ / 6.5 mm and US 10 / 6 mm Light bulky: US 10½ / 6.5 mm and US 10 / 6 mm Aran 131: US 9 / 5.5 mm and US 8 / 5 mm Worsted: US 8 / 5 mm and US 7 / 4.5 mm DK: US 6 / 4mm and US 4 / 3.5 mm **Notions** one stitch marker to mark the start of the round, optional additional stitch markers to mark the pattern repeats tapestry needle for finishing
