Ferns Beanie

Ferns is namesake to the beautiful elongated plants of rich meaning. It is believed that they contain the deep wisdom of Mother Earth, both for it’s medicinal purposes, as for its multicultural and ancient symbolism. The Beanie is crocheted with a special technique that makes it look like it was knitted. The Fair Isle design depicts ferns all around the beanie. Directions are included for a basic round beanie and for a slouchy one. This pattern comes in 2 different styles in adult size. The beanie is worked following a color chart. It might be a challenging project for beginners due to the technique used, but it's easy to figure out and it would be a great opportunity to learn a new technique!
