Chunky Lace Beanie

The Chunky Lace Beanie is a double-layered hat worked in the round from the bottom up. The outer lace layer is worked in a simple and elegant charted eyelet pattern using 2 strands of either Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk held together throughout. The liner is worked in stockinette stitch using 1 strand of either Merino, Cotton Merino or Pure Silk. The double layers make it a warm, cozy and snug hat that is perfect for extra cold days. You work the lace layer first starting with the ribbed brim before continuing with the charted eyelet pattern all the way to the top of the crown. Afterwards, stitches are picked up for the liner which is worked in stockinette stitch. The lace pattern is charted only.
