The hipster hat

This knitting pattern is in Swedish and is sold as an A4 printout.

The hipster beanie is knitted from the bottom up. Make a fold at the bottom of the ribbing, approximately 6 cm wide (double fold if the beanie is knitted extra long). The decreases at the top of the beanie are made by knitting 2 stitches together on each side of two knit stitches in 4 places in total around the round.

The hipster beanie can be knitted long enough to create a small “hipster top” on the head, or to a length that fits snugly on the head. The hipster beanie is suitable for both men and women.
