DESIGNERS NOTES:
I called it Cape Beanies after my long stay in Cape Town . The winter was extremely cold so I decided to design and knit some beanies for me . The beanies are knit flat with a back seam . One slim fit and the other slightly slouchy . I have also include a Messy Bun Pony Tail Beanie and a head band. The pattern is a cable like stitch , with a 6 row repeat .
MEASUREMENTS :
The beanies are unisex . Can fit any adult head .
My head circumference is 57 cm ( about 22 ½ ‘’ )
Others : 57 , 57 ½ + 58 cm ( 22 ½’’ – 22 ¾ ‘’ )
