Pacific Knit Co - Base Doodle Pattern - Beanie 1

The Base Doodle Beanie 1 is the perfect everyday hat! Simple construction and easy style modification options make this a fast favorite! Add a little flair at the brim, or do all-over colorwork! 

This hat is knit starting with a simple ribbed brim, followed by a section of optional colorwork, and finished with spiral crown decreases.

Each Base Doodle is a “blank canvas” pattern created for you to design and knit your own customized project! All of our Doodle Base Patterns can be used to mix-and-match with all of Pacific Knit Co.'s Doodle Colorwork Charts. But the patterns work just as well on their own for knitters who just want a simple, no-frills project!
