LYDIE BEANIE (EN)

Description

To complete the collection of Lydie accessories, here is the beanie! Knitted in-the-round from the bottom to the top, my Lydie beanie is first worked in 2/2 ribbing and then in the characteristic cables of the Lydie collection.
The pattern provides the option to knit the beanie in two different lengths, one for a snug fit and the other for a longer fit.
