Edited: Added theme to title, thanks for the nudge @thegiddystitcher@lemm.ee :)

I made this as a birthday present for a friend. It is my first succesful project using circular needles. I used 5mm needles, with 40cms cable for the body of the beanie, then switched to a 120cm cable and used the magic loop technique for the decreases.

It is mt first time trying this “bubble” stitch and I was so nervous doing the K4B and ‘undoing’ stitches lol.

Yarn is worsted weight Dreams in color 0002 from local store Revés Derecho

    What a crisp bubble definition! It looks amazing, wonderful job! Is the picture taken after washing/blocking the project?

    That’s such a pretty project and such a good picture of it! You definitely found a good background to take the picture against, it fits the pastel coloration of the yarn. I feel this is super above my skill level but I feel tempted to try it…

      I did not :o I’m kind of a recent knitter, thank you for letting me know!

        I did this as a beginner too, spent weeks knitting everything through the back loop by accident. Twisted stitch gang!

    This is absolutely stunning! You have a way of making hats look very aspirational in your photos! 😅

    (Just saying, but this would be a perfect entry for the current theme, hint hint cough cough cough)
