{"product_id":"sophie-lowe-beanie-knitting-pattern","title":"Sophie Lowe Beanie Knitting Pattern","description":"\u003cp\u003eA simple hat that is quick and fun to knit, the Sophie Lowe Beanie is a great beginner brioche project. The pattern provides clear instructions for all brioche techniques used, and the brioche decreases used in the crown shaping add a subtle yet interesting design element. Adding to the luxuriousness is the mohair held double with the fingering weight yarn—talk about some serious fluff-factor!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe pattern is available in three sizes, though the sizing is a bit flexible due to the stretchiness of brioche knitting. This means that you can tailor the hat to your preferences. If you like a tighter fitting hat, just knit down a size, and the hat will stretch to fit your head. If you like a more natural fit, then knit your normal size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMeasurements\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eInfant\/Toddler \u003cbr\u003eBrim circumference - 14 in (35.5 cm) \u003cbr\u003eHeight - 7 in (17.75 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChild \u003cbr\u003eBrim circumference - 18 in (45.75 cm) \u003cbr\u003eHeight - 8.5 in (22 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdult \u003cbr\u003eBrim circumference - 22 in (56 cm) \u003cbr\u003eHeight - 22 in (28 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGauge and Sizing\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003e16 sts x 48 rows = 4” in brioche stitch knitted in the round\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNote: the gauge is calculated by counting every round.

The original hat, which was the child’s size, used about half of each skein named in the pattern, and even the adult will still only take about half of a 100g skein of fingering weight yarn and half a 50g skein of lace weight mohair.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNeedles\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003eUS 5 (3.75mm) 16” circular needle and US 5 (3.75mm) DPNs (or US 5 (3.75mm) 46” circular needle for magic loop)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNotions\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cbr\u003escissors \u003cbr\u003etapestry\/yarn needle\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCopyright January 2019, all rights reserved.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Refracted Light Fiber Arts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42460825976932,"sku":"EP-898727","price":6.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0617\/2563\/8756\/files\/IMG_0153.jpg?v=1700767938","url":"https:\/\/www.refractedlightfiberarts.com\/products\/sophie-lowe-beanie-knitting-pattern","provider":"Refracted Light Fiber Arts","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
