NOTES

  • I’m not thrilled with how this beanie turned out in terms of recreating my friend’s favorite beanie.
  • This project should’ve only took a day or two, but I was dragging my feet getting it finished because I wasn’t sure if I was going to finish it or rip it apart to use yarn for my next attempt at recreating this beanie.
