So simple and easy to knit. This pattern uses stocking stitch and just one seam.
This beanie cap is ideal if you are new to hat knitting. It’s easily worked on 2 knitting needles. The seam disappears when you transform it into felt.

The pure wool fibers shrink and matt into felt just like a washday sweater disaster!
