Dalmatian beanie

I love dalmatians. Such cute dogs!

So therefore I had always dreamt of a black and white Dalmatian beanie with these cute dogs on them. Mine is still a litte puppy, wagging its tail :)

The beanie comes in two sizes and will be a long beanie for the smaller size (52 -54 cm head circumreference) and for bigger heads it will be more sort of a normal beanie.

It has my typical dotted corrugated ribbing as I'd like to put up the black dotted fur in the ribbing. The ribbing is followed by a dog paw border (peerie) pattern and a the complete puppy from head to tail. Then comes the paw peerie again, followed by a dalmatian dog face with black dalmatian fur spots. At the top is a star formed from a zigzag peerie and 5 little dog paw prints.

The bigger version is quite slouchy because it goes over 160 stitches. The smaller version will fit quite right but be a bit of a long beanie on smaller heads.

My version is knitted completely in 4-ply sock yarn in black and off-white. Bu
