I’m back again with a new project!

This is just a repeat of the previous White Frost beanie pattern I just finished. However this time, I’m using my leftover Aran yarn (off-white-colored) and also the faux fur pompom that I had meant to use on the previous gray beanie. And actually I think this color combo should work out pretty well! 🤷‍♂️

Current Progress

Since I just started, I’m only 8 rows into it (about 10% done).

Here’s my current progress:

Oh and here’s the pompom again:

Gauging

On the last project, I was really torn about how to proceed with the gauging. I felt like my swatches were turning out too large, so I switched down one needle size from what was suggested. It ended up okay in the end, but probably would have been better with the original needle sizes.

So this time I’m sticking with the suggested needle sizes (US 6/7). And even if it turns out to be a bit big, I feel like that’s the point of a beanie anyway 🤷‍♂️. Plus the pompom is pretty big, so it would make more sense on a bigger beanie.

Here’s a link to the project on Ravelry.

I’ll be making steady progress on this in the next few weeks!

I’m just planning on doing 4 rows a day, since I have some other things to get to and also don’t have any particular time-constraint, so that should take me 3 weeks or so to finish. At least I’ll finally have something to work on at knitting meet-ups! 😋
