Optional Flower
This lovely sea flower beanie has been designed to be extra tight fitting, so giving a sleeker look and a super snug fit. It is an easy pattern as the only skills you need are cast/bind on, knit, purl, knit 2 together, and purl 2 together. Knitted on 2 needles and sewn up the back.
It is unisex, although there is an optional flower, for a prettier, more feminine look. Matching fingerless gloves available.
The Lonely Sea - Heather Corcoran
I have a bag that say ' I knit therefore I am' - sums me up perfectly! I love to knit and love to design! I have knitted for years, and made and sold literally hundreds of owl gloves and fingerless mitts on-line. About 8 years ago, I decided to give designing and writing patterns a go, and I absolutely love it! The whole process is absolutely captivating, and I love to see other knitters' projects made from my patterns. My beautiful cavvy, Honey, is my constant companion, and she sleeps next to me on the settee while I knit. You can also find me on Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/thelonelyseapatterns/
