The YUKI beanie

The YUKI beanie is knitted from bottom to top. Knitted in mohair, it is very light and soft, like a snowflake. Hence its name Yuki, which means snow in Japanese.

The airy look of mohair brings a lot of softness and femininity to this beanie. The brim is first knitted in stockinette stitch, then the body of the beanie continues in the same stitch. Decreases are then gradually made to form the rounded top of the beanie.
