Mneme beanie
Mneme was the muse of memory.
The Mneme beanie is perfect for using leftover yarns. It is knitted with a strand of DK weight yarn and three strands of lace weight silk mohair for the softest and the warmest hat. You can choose matching colors or go for a marled look by combining complimenting colors. The sample hat was knitted using three different colors of mohair.
