Snowdrift Beanie - Knitting Pattern


The name Snowdrift comes from the shapes and eddies that the wind paints in the snow. Theses shapes are always beautiful and fascinating for me on my walks with the dog. One day, I wondered if I could manage to capture these swirls in a knitting pattern, so I went home and started experimenting.


After some trial and error, the exact pattern was finally created that perfectly draw my ideas with yarn into a pattern.


I hope you like it as much as I do and you enjoy reworking as much as I enjoyed designing this pattern.


The beanie is knitted in the round from bottom up using two threads - a fingering weight rustic natural wool and a mohair yarn. The amount of yarn you´ll need is comparatively low and perfectly suited for the one or two remaining balls some projects left behind - my beanie weighs a total of just under 60g in size L.


The pattern is available now in my Shop and on Ravelry.

 

Pattern in two sizes:

S = 56-57 cm, tight fit

L = 58-59 cm, loosley fit

 

You´ll need:

DPN 3,5 and 4,0 or

CIRCULAR NEEDLE 3,5 and 4,0, 40 cm - my favourite is this one

SKILLS Knitting in the round, decreasing, increasing, cables

PATTERN step-by-step written pattern

LANGUAGE English/German

FIT S for tight fit, L for loosley fit

 

The brim will be worn turned up so that it warms the ears nicely. The measurements in the pattern refer to this wearing style.


Yarn exchange: Instead of the rustic natural yarn from a local shepherd that I use, any other light yarn that achieves the same gauge together with the mohair yarn can be used.


If you share the beanie on Instagram, I would delighted if you´ll use the hashtag #snowdriftbeanie or @_epipa_ or create a project on Ravelry - I'm really looking forward to your Snowdrifts!



Have a wonderful and nice day, dears - happy knitting!

XOXO Sascia
