Winter Sunrise Beanie
Unlock your knitting potential with our delightful knitted hat pattern, designed for passionate knitters. This project involves knitting the hat from the bottom up in a round, offering you the flexibility to choose between a long, fold-up brim or a classic short version. The elegant crown is pointed, perfect for showcasing a small to medium-sized pompom, adding that extra touch of flair to your winter wardrobe.
**Yarn Requirements**: For this hat, you'll need approximately 90 g (which is almost 2 balls) of Mongolia 3 yarn from Fonty. This luxurious blend features 85% wool and 15% baby yak, providing both warmth and softness. The yarn has a length of 150 m for every 50 g, making it ideal for creating an adult-sized hat. Plus, the leftover yarn is just right for crafting a small pompom to top off your stylish accessory!
**Needles & Notions**: Gather your knitting supplies! You will need 5.5 mm (9 US) circular needles with a cable length of 40 cm/16 in. Additionally, keep a cable needle or a spare needle handy for the cables if necessary. A stitch marker will help you track your rounds, and a crochet hook (any size from 4.0 mm (6 US)) or a tapestry needle will be essential for weaving in those pesky ends.
**Gauge**: Achieving the right gauge is crucial for a perfect fit. For stockinette stitch, you should aim for 11 stitches and 20 rows in a 10 cm/4 in square. For 2x2 ribbing, your gauge should be 14 stitches and 20 rows over the same measurement. We highly recommend making a swatch to ensure your gauge is accurate. The good news is, you can unravel your swatch later and use the yarn for your actual project, ensuring nothing goes to waste!
**Sizes Available**: This versatile hat pattern caters to various head sizes. The adult size fits circumference measurements of approximately 54-58 cm (21-23 in), while the kids’ size accommodates 44-50 cm (18-20 in). Whether you’re knitting for yourself or a little one, this pattern has you covered!
**Knitting Skill Level**: This pattern is ideal for advanced beginners to pro knitters. If you're looking to develop your knitting skills while creating a cozy and fashionable hat, this is the perfect project for you.
