Echoes Of The Moon Beanie Pattern

This whimsical and enchanted design is part of the Lunar Collection — a series of magical pieces inspired by the mystery and wonder of the night sky. This beanie is worked in worsted weight yarn and features a clean silhouette with bold colorwork brought to life using duplicate stitch.

Designed to be beginner-friendly and fun to knit, this project is a two-part pattern: first you knit the base beanie, then add the moonlit wolves motif using the duplicate stitch technique — perfect for makers who want the look of colorwork without carrying floats.
