A New Take on the double layered reversible beanie in which there are so many versions out there, here is to them all.

A New Take on the double layered reversible beanie. Continuing the collection in yarns created by the rounders of mYak, this new version of the first one (found here). Is done with 2 skeins of the Fibre Gentili. A unisex hat which is a quick knit and the perfect gift giving item.

CONSTRUCTION
This hat is reversible and can be worn as a slouch hat or the brim folded to wear as a beanie and show off both sides. The hat uses square crown shaping, the “+” shape on the A side and pinwheel shaping on the B side. Using color A, the hat is worked from the brim to the crown starting with a pro-visional cast on, then using Color B, the live stitches of Color A are picked up and from there the hat is knit using Color B from the brim through the pinwheel shaping of the crown. Ends are woven in before beginning the crown of Color B.
