Corncob Beanie Pattern

About the Pattern:

This is my take on the classic cabled beanie. Worked from the bottom-up, this hat has an oversized folded brim and a modern silhouette, that is easy to integrate into your wardrobe while also keeping you warm and cozy. The hat is meant to extend up above the wearer’s head, but if you don’t like this detail you can knit less length in the body.
