Sample is Size Adult M Short.
YARN: Fingering weight yarn (size 1, 4 ply, sock yarn)
For a short beanie: Approx 170 (200, 235, 280, 320, 370) m / 185 (220, 260, 305, 350, 405) yds.

Sample used Botanical Yarn, 4ply Merino Sock (75% Superwash Merino Wool, 25% Nylon; 425 m per 100g), in colour Galentines.
A wool or wool blend yarn is recommended for better memory and elasticity in the ribbing.
HOOKS:Â 3Â mm or size needed to meet gauge.
NOTIONS: 1 stitch marker (or loose strand of yarn) and a tapestry needle.
Any fingering weight yarn will work, but I recommend a wool or wool based yarn for better stretch and memory such as these:
30 sts x 36 rows = 10 cm x 10 cm / 4 x 4 in.
Worked with a 3mm hook flat over stitch pattern as follows:
Row 1:Â dsl; Row 2:Â slstBLO; Row 3: dslBLO. Rep Rows 2 and 3.
Swatch was measured blocked while fabric remained very stretchy – do not overstretch during blocking!
