This beanie could be a little crazy, a lot cool…you decide!
Cozy and comfortable with a double brim, and a bold diamond pattern, fun for working your own color combinations!
Great for men, women and teens to flaunt their stylish side.
A good use for leftover yarns, using multiple colors for the diamonds or a slow striping yarn for a cool ombre effect.
Hat is knit bottom up beginning with the inside brim, adding colorwork, then turning/joining the double brim and continuing the colorwork through the crown.
