This beanie is worked in a clever two colour quilted stitch that uses 2 different methods of slipping stitches to create a gorgeously dense fabric that’s snug to wear. I’ve chosen a rich colour combination of chestnut and fuschia but it would also look great worked in a single colour for a more subtle textural look
