Hello everyone!
Are you looking for a last-minute Christmas gift?. I know, it can be super overwhelming trying to figure out what to give.
But hey! If you live in a cold climate city, everybody needs a hat, am I right?
The good news is, this beanie can be made in only an hour! Yes, you read that right, only one hour.
I’m not saying that you have to knit super fast, I’m saying, that the yarn we are using will do pretty much all the work.
Not ready to knit yet? Pin now, knit later!
I made this hat back in 2018 for the first time, I fell in love with it, and yes, it took me this long to finally share the pattern. Sorry!
If you are familiar with knitting stitches, the Luna beanie is made with the “broken rib” stitch. Which is a very simple, yet beautiful stitch.
If you love this kind of beanie, especially the material, make sure to also knit the Snuggle Me Beanie.
The pattern I’m about to share is for the adult size only.
If you would like the ad-free printable pattern PDF with all sizes included, you can get it from Etsy or My Shop
