Misty Moss Knit Beanie Pattern

With arctic vortex warnings around most parts of Canada, I thought it would be a good time to make a warm beanie using wool yarn and test it out, so far I’m happy with performance of a Misty Moss beanie. Wool yarn combined with tight knitting doesn’t let the wind go through it easily (though when it’s really cold and windy I also wear a hood). But the best part of it is the look of the beanie during the snowfall, when lots of little snowflakes are covering the beanie and mixing with its light green color. I hope I managed to hook you up and you are already holding yarn and needles in your hands 🙂
