STARTING the BEANIE

CO 90 (100, 110) sts on 3.0mm needles with the white yarn.

Place a marker and join in the round, being careful not to twist the stitches.

Do ribbing (k1, p1) for 1 inch. Change to the larger needles and proceed in knitting for 4 (4.5, 5) inches. This will give you 29 (34, 39) rows. Please follow the graph to know in which rows to do the colo4 changes.

SHAPING the CROWN

  Row 1: k8, k2tog around

  Row 2 and all even rows: knit around

  Row 3: k7, k2tog around

  Row 5: k6, k2tog around

  Row 7: k5, k2tog around

  Row 9: k4, k2tog around

  Row 11: k3, k2tog around

  Row 13: k2, k2tog around

  Row 15: k1, k2tog around

  Row 17: k2tog around

Leave a tail (up to 8"). You will use a hook or a tapestry needle to thread the tail through the last remaining stitches on your needle. After that remove the needles from the stitches and pull tightly to close the top hole. Lastly, hide the tail inside and weave it in.

Child size is up to the dark blue line.
Teen size is up to the dark orange line.
