Autumn Beanie Knit Beanie

This child size pixie style beanie is super fast to knit up and a great addition to your child’s fall and winter attire.

You may be surprised to find out that knitting was actually the first craft I learned between crochet and knit. While I've only known how to crochet for 2+ years, I've known how to knit for about 15 years.

The Autumn Beanie is my first ever knit hat design and the second hat I ever knitted in my life. Crazy, right? The reason behind this is because I look horrible in hats. It is very rare that I find a hat that compliments my face shape. Let's just say it's not one of my favorite accessories. However, my kids look super cute in them and with the cold winter ahead of us, I decided to design a hat that my kids would love.

My sassy daughter, Sophia. LOL.

This pixie hat would also look super cute in either red or green for a Christmas elf hat, don't you think?

The hat is a very basic and simple hat design; perfect for beginning knitters!
