Using only 90m of aran yarn, this cosy, close fitting beanie is an ideal accessory for autumn through to spring, and easily kept in your bag or pocket for when you need some extra warmth.

This beanie is the perfect companion for my Bristol scarf and is a very quick, satisfying project for knitters of all abilities. Knitted in the round, it's a delightful combination of textured band and lace stitch blocks surrounded by knit stitch. It's an excellent stash busting project and last minute gift knit.
