Hi guys! Welcome to day 12, rounding out our first dozen patterns! Today's release is the Arthur beanie, which is a simple and basic earflap beanie, to fit 40 weeks, or a full term newborn. Ive made mine using contrasting colours, but you could do it solid, or make thicker stripes. It's a great basic pattern for adding extra's too, like appliques and flowers!
