Texas Beanie

Texas is design #6 in my All American collection of beanies. When you ask most folks what comes to mind when they think about Texas, cowboys (and the boots and hats that go with them) will likely be near the top of the list! In the early 1800s, cowboy boots were designed strictly for function. Today’s cowboy boots might feature colorful patterns and embroidery or even rhinestones and metallic stitching. But this design was inspired by the stitching patterns and worn leather of *classic* cowboy boots. The row of dark brown at the base of the ribbing represents the sole of the boot. If y’all want to personalize your “boots” a little, try using a different color for the leather. Pink, blue, black…the choice is yours! Yarn used in sample: Not shown on chart.
