Small tricolor beanie
Boshi hats are trending. We've already shown you several models in our online workshop. Today we'll show you a step-by-step for a youthful three-color version.
YOU WILL NEED:
- Caricia Sport yarn: green-COL Nº 073, blue COL Nº 012, navy blue COL 014 (1 ball of each color)
- Knitting needles Nº 5.
- Tapestry needle.
- Two 10 x 10 cm cardboard pieces.
- Scissors.
GAUGE
In English rib stitch: 10 x 10 cm = 15 sts. and 16 rows.
STITCHES USED
- English Rib Stitch (see tutorial p.inglés).
HOW TO MAKE THE HAT?
Cast on 60 stitches and work in English rib stitch until you have 10 cm in length. Change color and continue until it measures 30 cm from the beginning of the work. Insert the tapestry needle through all the stitches. Close, gather and fasten.
Pom-pom
To make the Pom-Pom:
- Cut 2 cardboard circles 9 cm in diameter and make a 2 cm diameter hole in the center. Make a cut in both cardboard pieces to easily pass the yarn through.
- Pass the yarn through the circle as many times as necessary. For this hat, we suggest a very voluminous pom-pom.
- Carefully cut the yarn around the circle.
- Insert a strand of yarn between the two cardboard pieces, across their entire diameter, and carefully pull tightly, wrap, and tie 2 or 3 times to secure it well. Leave a strand to sew to the hat.
- Trim any excess fringe to give the pom-pom a spherical shape. Leave a strand to sew to the hat.
ASSEMBLY
To form the hat, sew the two sides (see tutorial sewing seams).
Fasten.
Sew the pom-pom to the hat. Secure.
