Rooted in tradition and built for everyday wear, the Heritage Wool Beanie is a timeless accessory with thoughtful construction. Made with a sturdy Canadian wool known for its durability and warmth, this hat is designed to stand up to the chill. Subtle shaping adjustments at the start of each round create a smooth, rounded crown — free from visible growth lines — while single crochet stitches and post stitch ribbing give it clean texture and a snug, classic fit. A touch rustic, totally practical and made to last.

Pattern Notes
Tips:
- Due to the size of the stitches, it’s easy to skip a stitch accidentally. You may have skipped a stitch by accident if your counts are incorrect.
- The hat is worked in a continuous circle, with the stitch marker at the end of each round moved up to ensure accurate counts.
- Each round starts slightly different to make a more rounded beanie without growth lines.
