· You can make your beanie in any colour you like, and you can change colour whenever you like.
· For reference I changed colours every 3 rows.
· Instead of CH2 at the beginning of rounds, I recommend doing a ‘stacked DC’ to avoid leaving a gap.
-SPECIAL STITCH-
· Stacked DC – see the following video for instruction.
