Download the pattern by clicking here. Print all 3 A4 pattern sheets. Tape together the sheets, edge to edge. Note, that the pattern does not include seam allowance.


Sewing instructions:

1. Fold the beanie piece in two width-wise, face to face. Sew the pattern’s centre front (CF) seam using an overlocker. Top and bottom.


2. Sew the outer edge of the beanie. Fold the beanie piece so that the front darts are set against one another. Fold the seam allowance to overlap. Sew the upper edge of the beanie. 


3. Turn the beanie so that the face side is outwards. Close the gap used for turning using an overlocker.

4. Set the beanie in its two-layered shape by pushing the closed gap used for turning inside the beanie. Fold a turn-up at the bottom edge of the beanie.

Finish the beanie by adding fun pom pom on the top. Take a look at PaaPii’s wonderful pom pom selection by clicking here.
