Loved making this beanie! Nice and easy and looks super cute!
The pattern is easy to follow and it’s easy to customise to your own style.
Add less rows and it’s a simple beanie, add more length and a cute pompom for the original look. My family all have beanies now, and are loving how they feel and look.
Great beginner beanie! I havent knitted for over 30 years but i picked it up really quickly and loved it. Its definately not perfect, but its made with love and i get to tell people i made it myself.
The videos were amazing guides and easy to follow!
I had so much fun making this beanie - now I want to knit EVERYTHING! I can't believe I made this. It is so cosy. Everyone I have shown it to has been so impressed! I started with the Basics videos, practising the different knit/purl/rib stitches and casting on etc, and then moved onto the project. My tip: At the end of the project when you need to weave in the ends - this vid is in the Basics playlist! My head is on the large-side but I just made it as per the standard pattern and just have a slightly smaller cuff than in the booklet images, however I still like the look.
This beanie is so cute!! It has really straight forward instructions and the supporting video helps to explain it all so well. I really enjoyed making this and have bought 2 more kits since!! It's slightly addictive - so be warned!!
Love this pattern. Looks great and good practice for my knitting.
Now to make it in other colours
This was really fun and also challenging to make in terms of getting the rib right and remembering when to knit and when to purl! (I am a newbie knitter). This was my first kit and it gave me so much practice for doing rib stitch that I feel really confident with it now. I loved the experience, made heaps of mistakes and also had great email support from Marnie.
This project gave me more than just a beanie. It was so nice to have a relaxing project to work on and have something useful at the end. I highly recommend!! My advice would be to read the book and go through all the ‘basics’ videos on YouTube before diving in so you know where to find all the videos you’ll need. The beanie is a cool style and the merino wool is super soft and easy to work with. The videos are really easy to follow. I can’t wait to get started on my next project!
This was so great to make.
Took me a little bit to get started but once I did it was so good.
Was a great smaller project to do and turned out great
Once i got the hang of it after watching the tutorials, such a fun beanie to make! Super satisfactory being able to finish a project and actually wear it! Super easy for a first time knitter and now I want to make another!
