With a tretchy cast on paired with a simple textured design, the Gilded Beanie by Jenny Noto knits up quickly and is really comfortable to wear.

Jenny notes, “This is named for a good friend of mine who showed me a screenshot from a movie of a beanie she liked and commented on how different the brim looked from usual beanies. This was several years ago, when I had just started knitting, so while I figured its a cast on technique, I didnt realize how easy it actually can be! You may have guessed this is the tubular cast on, and youd be correct! While there are several ways to do this cast on, I prefer a specific method and it hasnt failed me yet. Turns out really pretty and looks unique in heavier weight yarns.”
