Sizing Notes
This pattern is designed to fit baby-adults and distributed into three sizes that are written as S(M, L). Each size measures approximately 17(19, 21) inches when finished. Each size will fit many heads, so I recommend choosing the size that best suits your negative/positive ease preferences.
Pattern Notes

This beanie is worked in the round, so place a marker at the beginning of each round.
You can use any method you would like to work in the round. I personally prefer using a 16” circular needle, then switching to magic loop/DPNs for the crown of the beanie.

Finishing
Cut yarn, and weave through rem sts with the tail. Refer to this tutorial if needed.
Most hats are fine without blocking, since they will naturally shape to fit the recipient’s head over time. However, feel free to spritz the beanie, and place it on a head form to shape.
After blocking, top with a yarn or faux fur pom if desired! Find my favorite poms here.
Lastly, enjoy and show off your beautiful new beanie, or gift it to someone special. If desired, share it on Instagram using the #thegracefultangle and tag @thegracefultangle!
