Slanted Beanie - Beanie Knitting Pattern

This hat can be worn by anyone, anywhere! My testers all seemed to like to fold up the brim or wear as a sockhead hat.
It covers the ears and stays put no matter how fast you’re going!

What makes this beanie extraordinary is the decreases at the top.

It’s one size fits all, the fabric is very loose, but it can be knitted tighter and smaller by choosing smaller needles and or thicker yarn.
Worked brim up in the round, the pattern consists of two different stitch panels, rib and slanting rib, that are repeated alternately.
