Skill Level: Average to Intermediate Knitting

This versatile beanie can be made in either Fingering or 4 ply yarn and DK or 8 ply yarn. There are two sets of instructions included to cover both yarn weights. The simple two-row stripe pattern consists of alternating off-set garter ridges to create an optical illusion - shadow knitting.

It is knitted in rounds from the bottom edge up, with a K1, P1 rib band.
