Swanky Slouchy Beanie

$4.00

A slouchy beanie with easy to learn lace and bobbles. Choose a dk weight yarn, or hold two strands of fingering weight together for a marled or fuzzy effect. The samples use local-to me hand dyed yarn from Tatiana of Tumalo Fiber. This project was perfect for our first real High Desert snow this winter. I happened to be knitting these while watching the snow fall quietly through the day, and wore the fuzzy hat to my 8th grade son’s winter band concert that evening. He’s a trombonist!
