The Umlaut Beanie is a very quick knit, and perfect for keeping you warm. Worked up in the round on 15 mm needles, this hat usually takes 30 mins – 2 hours to complete - you can start knitting it in the morning and have it ready for an afternoon walk! Pompoms can be added as a finishing touch, but are not necessary.

Whether using super bulky wool or multiple strands of scrap yarn held together, this is a great project suitable for beginners as well as more experienced knitters looking for a quick and simple hat design.
