PATTERN INFORMATION

Welcome to the Torbay Beanie. This beanie is a cable beanie suited to beginner cablers. The pattern is a 12 row repeat and only requires cable stitches to be made on one of these rows. The rest of the pattern consists of knits and purls. My friend helped me name this beanie as she thought it reminded her of the asparagus that grow in the small town of Torbay, located in the Great Southern region of Western Australia.

This beanie is knit in the round and utilises 2 cable stitches to achieve the unique pattern. The length of this beanie can be adjusted based on the number of pattern repeats knitted.
