CONSTRUCTION
—
The Northport Beanie is a fitted, classic hat with a warm double layer construction in a timeless ribbed knit. This is a great project for mindless knitting as the bulk of the work is done in a long tube, then you will double the fabric and sew the ends together. There are instructions for several gauges and 2 types of cast-ons.

SKILLS
—
This is a written pattern assuming foundational knitting knowledge and is not intended to be beginner friendly. Supplemental research or practice to learn new skills may be required to complete this project.
This pattern requires a working knowledge of: knitting & purling in the round, increasing, decreasing, basic sewing.
DPNs are used to work in the round for the cast-on, then switching to circular needles for the main body of the hat. As the crown takes shape, DPNs are used again as the sts decrease. Finally, the ends of the hat are sewn together.
There are 2 cast-on methods included in this pattern for an easier cast on and an intermediate form fitted cast on with DPNs.
