Description

The Cupcake Beanie is knit seamlessly from the bottom up, starting with the faux fur brim. After completing the brim, the main body of the hat is worked in the round. The crown is shaped with gradual decreases. To finish, the faux fur pom-pom(s) are knit and attached. This quick knit is perfect for a weekend project :)
