It’s a big hype at the moment: the messy bun beanie.
I’m a member of different Facebook groups and these hats keep showing up in my timeline!
The messy bun hat is also known as a ponytail hat. They can also be used while running.
In Holland these hats aren’t a big hype yet, so I took my chance and wrote a Dutch pattern.
For you, I translated it into English!
I used worsted weight yarn and hook size 5 mm.
