The Design Concept Of The Icicle Beanie Knitting Pattern: A Lovely Winter Beanie With An Icicle-Inspired Edge
When designing The Icicle Beanie knitting pattern, I was really inspired by the pretty icicles and snowfall during the winter months here in Colorado. I've seen many basic double-brim beanie knitting patterns on the market, but I wanted to make sure the one I designed had an extra element of surprise. So I designed The Icicle Beanie to feature a subtle edging inspired by icicles (I've been calling it "the icicle edging"), a double-thick brim with a body of classic stockinette stitches, and a beautiful spiral symmetrical design toward the top of the beanie. Overall, The Icicle Beanie knitting pattern is a super easy knitting project and it knits up in no time. And the little details that I added throughout the hat (i.e., the icicle edge, the double-thick brim, the spiral top design, etc) required throughout this project make this knitting pattern interesting and really entertaining to knit. The Icicle Beanie is definitely a staple item in any fall or winter wardrobe, because it goes with everything, is super in-style, and keeps you warm and cozy.
Knitted seamlessly in the round on circular knitting needles bottom-up, The Icicle Beanie knitting pattern equips you with a stitch glossary, a detailed schematic with precise measurements, highly-detailed written instructions (including lots of tips and notes), links to numerous helpful video and photo support for reference, photo tutorials within the pattern for guidance, and more. Suitable for advanced-beginner knitters, The Icicle Beanie knitting pattern is a really enjoyable and relaxing knitting pattern to make a true fashion knitwear item that looks less "handmade" and more "high-fashion" or even "store-bought".
More Details Of The Icicle Beanie Knitting Pattern: Construction, What's In The Pattern + More
The Icicle Beanie is seamlessly knitted in the round on circular knitting needle from the bottom-up. The entirety of the beanie, aside form the icicle-edging, consists of classic stockinette stitches, making this beanie an instant classic and timeless fall or winter accessory that goes with everything. The brim of the beanie is a double-thick brim that is super easy to create, and the pattern even contains tutorial photos within it for reference. The bottom brim of the beanie consists of a subtle icicle-inspired edging which is also super easy to create and only consists of simple increase and decrease stitches -- all very beginner-friendly techniques and stitches.
