We are getting into that special time of year – holiday parties, family gatherings, work soirees! The list goes on. How about adding some festive flair when you host or attend one of these fêtes?? I just posted a FREE pattern on Ravelry called The Hostess Hat! To wear or share!!
It’s just for fun. It’s a quick knit and is a great introduction to beaded knitting. A skein of Cascade 220 (Ruby color #9404) will make 2 hats and one skein of Natural (8010) will be enough for FOUR hats! Happy knitting!!
PS to Samina and anyone else who has never knit with beads: This could be one of the easier beaded projects to learn with! The beads are big, the yarn is big, the crochet hook, though small, is kinda big!! The knitting is basic…
Thank you! This is really cute and so kind of you to offer it for free! I love adding beads to my knitting.

So cute and so well knit! Love the candy cane tassel and cord. Amazing!

Love it – many thanks for your generosity. I’ve not knitted anything with beading, so this’ll be a nice learning experience, too.

Many thanks for your pattern and much more. I knitted it as a daily hat for my husband in brown (but without pearls!) and it fits wery well.
