Hi, Guys and Welcome to Studio Knit.
Today, we are going to create a Slouchy Beanie from The Fault in Our Stars Movie.
I loved the EGGING scene in The Fault in Our Stars Movie TFIOS movie so much. It shows
how through it all, Hazel, Gus, and Isaac are just real kids. I thought it would be
fun to knit our own Hat like Hazel wears.
Check out my written knitting pattern for the slouchy beanie! Once my beanie is complete,
I am donating it to the nonprofit Halos of Hope, giving free knit caps to cancer patients
for comfort. The links for the movie scene, pattern, and Halos of Hope are in the description
below.
Oh, and please Hit LIKE if you know why I am wearing dark blue nail polish.
The Materials we will use are Size 8 circular needles
4 Size 8 double pointed needles Worsted Weight YARN
Tapestry Needle Scissors
The Red Heart Super Saver yarn that I used was on sale at Beverlys for only $2.98 and
I only used half of it!
So, let�s get started.
First, we will Cast On 73 Stitches with Long-Tail Method.
Now we will JOIN in the round. As always, when knitting in the round, make sure not
to twist your stitches. We will knit two together to join, and then
Knit in the one by one rib stitch all the way to the end of the row.
The one by one knit stitch is knit one, purl one, knit one, purl one.
So, we now will Knit in the one by one rib stitch for eight rows and the brim will measure
approximately two inches.
So now, Knit all rows in the round until your entire piece measures nine or ten inches depending
on how long you would like your slouchy beanie to be.
Once you are ready to decrease, we will follow the pattern to the left. So, remember, you
can download the entire written pattern for FREE from the link below. And we are going
to decrease by knitting two together and then knitting the required number of stitches,
and every even row will be simply be a straight knit row. We will have a decrease row, a knit
row, a decrease row, a knit row all the way down until you have just eight stitches remaining.
Switch to double pointed needles when necessary.
Now it is time to cut your yarn, weave through those remaining eight stitches and pull it
tight. To finish it off, just Weave-in your ends.
