Knitting pattern: Chunky Tweed Beanie. The Chunky Tweed Beani came about as a sister pattern to my earlier Easy Tweed Beanie (which is an Aran or worsted weight pattern). It has the same benefits as the Easy Tweed Beanie:
 It’s a great stashbuster pattern: use up beautiful leftover partial skeins of yarn.
 It creates a really warm and cosy hat! The stranding which takes place on the reverse side means that most of the hat has a double thickness of yarn.
 The tweed effect created by the simple slip stitches lets you play with colour to create a truly unique hat.
 Only one yarn is used at a time; it’s one of the easiest ways to enjoy colourwork.
 You don’t have to use leftovers – two skeins of yarn will make for two wonderful ‘sister’ hats if you reverse the main and contrast colour. This is particularly nice for gift knitting – similar styles yet different hats.

You can use the pattern to create truly unique hats, as the combination of yarns you choose is up to you! The interplay of colours adds such interest to the fabric; creating a one-off artisan item of clothing. Each hat can use yarn which is leftover from other projects, making this a great eco-friendly and stash-busting pattern. The Chunky Tweed Beanie has one advantage over the Easy Tweed Beanie though – chunky yarn is much quicker to knit up! Also, only one size of knitting needle is required for this pattern.

The hats are knit using a colourwork technique which is perfect for beginners: slip stitch knitting, or mosaic knitting. You only work with ONE colour on each row, so no need to worry about carrying the yarn at the back of your work. I wrote the pattern to suit chunky weight yarn, and it is worked in the round. Only 1 size of circular needle is needed: US10 (6mm). Other notions required are: a stitch marker (to mark the start of the row), and a tapestry or knitter's sewing needle (to weave in ends). Yarn requirements are 100g/(150m) of yarn in total, in two or more colours.

The hats are knit using two strands of wool, which makes them twice as cosy. The fabric formed is a little stiffer, and less stretchy, than a regular wool hat, but is truly warm against the elements.

Sizing:

Adult Large.
The finished beanie measures around 19 inches/48 cm in circumference (unworn) and measures 9”/22.5cm from brim to crown. The size can be adjusted in width by casting on more (or less) stitches in multiples of 4 (e.g. 64 instead of 72 for a child-sized hat). It can be adjusted in length by working more (or less) repeats of the 6-row slip stitch pattern.

If you prefer the worsted or Aran weight version of the pattern, it is available over here: https://www.etsy.com/ie/listing/1207441699/knitting-pattern-easy-tweed-beanie?click_key=738b2e1885c02f3758a604f6be26534ccaf1e34b%3A1207441699&click_sum=6b311cae&ref=shop_home_active_38&pro=1

I'm a knitter from the Aran Islands, and having made many hats over the years, I'm delighted to have my own designs on sale!

Please note that the pattern is currently only available in English.

Thank you for looking, and feel free to get in touch if you have any queries : )

Frequently Asked Questions

Gift wrapping and packaging

All my items are wrapped in crepe paper for free; if you would like sturdy wrapping for a festive occasion; please choose the gift wrapping option when ordering and let me know any special requirements (e.g. Christmas gift/birthday gift).

Care instructions

All of my knitted accessories (except items which have stuffing, like charms or baubles) can be machine-washed on a gentle wool wash at 30 degrees, or hand washed if you prefer. Certain items, such as cafetieres and tea-cosies, have been knitted in a more hard-wearing wool/acrylic mix: these can be washed in a regular machine wash at 40 degrees.

How long will it take you to post my item?

I aim to post your item on the following business day.

Can you send my purchase direct to the gift recipient?

Absolutely! Just let me know the address of your gift recipient, and I will happily post it there directly, with a handwritten card containing the message of your choice.

What if my order doesn't arrive?

I would recommend paying a little extra for registered post (which includes tracking) if this is a concern. If your (international) order has not arrived 30 days after shipping, please get in touch.

Is your business eco-friendly?

- I believe that wool is one of the most environmentally-friendly fibres in the world; being renewable and biodegradable. Most of my knits are made using natural fibres; with the exception of knits which need to be machine-washable (such as tea cosies).
- I take care to wrap your order in biodegradable materials (crepe paper and wool tie). Shipping bags are not always biodegradable; but this option is used when available. Shipping bags are recyclable in most countries.
- A packing slip is not included, to save on paper waste, and duplicating information already available online.
