The Bridge View Beanie is a 2 colour fairisle hat that is designed for Convent & Chapel Convent Irish Tweed. Rustic and authentic - just like the Bridge View Inn that is its namesake, this hat comes in 6 sizes and is a delight to knit and wear in this original Irish Tweed yarn.
With instructions for adjustments and variations, you will be able to create many lovely hats from this pattern for all the knitworthy people in your life.
