Product Description
I am obsessed with ribbing right now. I think ribbing is so underrated. I love the graphic stripe that you get with a rib, and I love the way that it looks like stockinette when it is not stretched out. This is a basic four paneled beanie with a 4 point decrease. It has two panels each of stockinette and 1 x 1 rib.
Beanies are classic, and suitable for everyone. I have included sizing from baby to Adult large. Big Bad Beanie was named by my son who, though he has no interest in knitting himself, enjoys hearing about my projects. The hat is knit in the round from the bottom up in a worsted weight yarn.
Baby size will fit a 15-16” head, and the adult large will fit up to a 23” head. Allow for about 2” of negative ease.
Gauge is important with this project for a good fit.
Gauge:20 stitches and 27.5 rows over 4"/10 cm after blocking.

| Notes: | I used superwash yarn, but this hat also works nicely in a non-superwash wooly yarn. I do not recommend alpaca, due to the ribbing. |
