Stitches used
2x2 rib: k2., p2., k2. stockinette: k on the right side, p on the wrong side. Pompom: follow the package instructions. Stitch pattern: follow the chart.
Gauge: 10 x 10 cm square using 5mm needles and following the st pattern from the
chart = 25 sts x 28 rows.
Execution- Beanie: start at the bottom. Cast-on 102 stitches using 4 mm needles and
knit in 2x2 rib until it measures 4 cm from the cast-on edge. Switch to 5 mm needles
and follow the stitch pattern from the chart for another 18 cm. When it measures 22 cm
from the cast-on edge, work in stockinette as follows: 1st row (RS)- k2tog along the
entire row (51 sts left); 2nd row (WS)- p all sts; 3rd row (RS): k2tog along the entire
row and k the last stitch (26 sts left); 4th row (WS): p all sts; 5th row (RS)- k2tog along
the entire row (13 sts left). At this point, slip all sts into a strand of yarn and tie them
together. Cut the yarn, leaving a tail long enough for seaming. Make a pompom
following the kit instructions with the 9 cm piece; even out the pompom by cutting the
longer strands.
Finishing: seam the side of the beanie with mattress stitch; weave in all loose ends and secure the pompom at the top of the beanie.
