Materials Needed

• Yarn: Super bulky weight yarn in deep charcoal, midnight blue, and black
• Needles: US Size 15 (10mm) circular needles, 16-inch length
• Gauge: 8 stitches and 12 rows = 4 inches in stockinette stitch
• Scissors: For cutting yarn
• Tapestry needle: For weaving in ends

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Cast On: Begin by casting on 48 stitches using the long-tail cast-on method. Ensure that your stitches are not twisted when you join in the round. Place a stitch marker to indicate the beginning of the round.
2. Ribbing (Rounds 1-4): Work in a 2x2 ribbing pattern by knitting 2 stitches and then purling 2 stitches. Repeat this sequence around the entire round for a total of 4 rounds.
3. Stockinette Stitch (Rounds 5-20): Knit every stitch for the next 16 rounds to create the stockinette stitch body of the beanie.
4. Begin Decreasing for the Crown (Round 21): Start decreasing by knitting 6 stitches, then knitting 2 together (k2tog). Repeat this pattern around the round. You will have 42 stitches remaining.
5. Continue Decreasing (Rounds 22-32):
   • Round 22: Knit all stitches.
   • Round 23: *K5, k2tog* repeat around (36 stitches).
   • Round 24: Knit all stitches.
   • Round 25: *K4, k2tog* repeat around (30 stitches).
   • Round 26: Knit all stitches.
   • Round 27: *K3, k2tog* repeat around (24 stitches).
   • Round 28: Knit all stitches.
   • Round 29: *K2, k2tog* repeat around (18 stitches).
   • Round 30: Knit all stitches.
   • Round 31: *K1, k2tog* repeat around (12 stitches).
   • Round 32: *K2tog* repeat around (6 stitches).
6. Finish the Crown: Cut the yarn, leaving a long tail. Thread the tail through the remaining 6 stitches and pull tight to close the top of the beanie. Weave in any loose ends securely with a tapestry needle.
7. Add Fringe: To create the fringe, cut lengths of yarn measuring 6 inches in all three colors. Attach the fringe to the bottom edge of the beanie by alternating colors and spacing them approximately 1 inch apart. To attach, fold a strand in half, insert your hook through the edge stitch, pull up a loop, and then pull the ends through the loop to secure.
