A decorative ribbed band feeds into structured cables, creating a striking visual effect. The pattern contains the instructions for both the beanie and slouchy versions. Hat Description The Armley Beanie comes in two versions – fitted beanie and comfort fit. Both are knit from the bottom up and feature a decorative ribbed brim that feeds into tapering cables that are repeated all the way around. The conical cables are offset by a reverse stocking stitch body. Both crowns are in reverse stocking stitch. On the beanie the crown is fitted with invisible shaping while on the slouch it’s softly gathered.
