Because we were camping without cell reception/internet, I didn’t post weekly patterns like I said I would. Instead we went to Utah to the Uinta Mountains. There I found bright fall colors! I also realized how each region has different fall colors. (Of course there are no fall colors at my home in the Mohave Desert.) When I designed Edie Beanie it was still summer and I was going by memory of what fall feels like. I still love the colors in this hat pattern, but they are more subdue than the real life bight fall colors that are happening in some places. It doesn’t matter really because are we just trying to match the colors in our coats, right? 🙂

Edie Beanie calls for small amounts of 7 colors. I think it’s a good use of fingering weight scraps. The pattern of alternating botanical motifs travel up to the crown and meet in a way that creates a star at the top.

This is a free pattern for now. Please do not use any of these images without consent or post the pattern pdf on another site. It is okay to link to this website so others can find it.

Happy Knitting!
