Double Basket Beanie Prototype

Double Basket Beanie Prototype

Table of Contents

I finished the first prototype of my new Double Basket Beanie. Based on Barbara Walker’s Double Basket Pattern this beanie is comfortable and squishy. Also an easy knit. The stitch pattern is just knits and purls.

Like my Basket Weave Beanie I’m writing the pattern to be easily sized by adjusting the number of stitch patterns knit.

Next, I’m going to start knitting a medium version in a fun color.

Once I have a small version done and the pattern cleaned up, I hope to get some test knitters to try out the new pattern.

Enjoy!

During my last move, I took the opportunity to slim down how much stuff I cart around, and I have a pretty good handle on the clutter, but I still have a ton of stuff. Far more than I need and far more than will work for my ten year plan.
