Stash Busting Self Striping Spectrum Beanie with Pom Pom

Add to Stash

Gift-making season has officially kicked into high gear! If you are looking for a project that is fun, playful, and perfect for busting through your yarn stash, look no further than the Self Striping Spectrum Beanie with Pom Pom by Purl Avenue.

Here is why this pattern needs to be on your needles this season:

• Vibrant Color Play: This design does the heavy lifting for you by utilizing Loops & Threads Facets in “Spectrum.” The self-striping yarn creates effortless, bright transitions that pop beautifully against the solid Bernat Fluffee in “Quartzite.”
• Stash-Busting Friendly: Designed using leftovers from previous projects (like the Half Woven Herringbone Infinity Scarf), this is an excellent pattern for using up those odd skeins hiding in your inventory.
• Totally Customizable: Worried about fit? The pattern is designed to be flexible. Whether you are knitting for a child or an adult, you can easily resize the hat using the Size Converter tool available on Purl Avenue.
• Quick Knit: Using US 11 circular needles and DPNs, this chunky project works up fast—perfect for last-minute holiday gifts.
• Versatile Style: With a finished circumference of 16″ and a length that can be worn folded or unfolded, it’s a cozy, adaptable accessory finished off with a classic pom pom.
