Pomona Beanie

This fun pattern is easier than it looks! Written for 4 different weights with an easy to adjust repeat, there is something for everyone! This design uses one color at a time, making this super easy. You will need at least 2 contrasting colors, and this one is great for scraps!

There are also bonus instructions to make a cupcake style (pattern on the brim) for all weights, and combining this with the regular version will give you a pattern for the brimless version. There is also a general sizing chart for measurements to aim for when knitting different sizes! Want more? There’s also a cowl pattern included at the bottom.
