Nether pattern beanie but in the shade of red. Does this strike anything to you? In the world of Minecaraft, “The Nether is a molten, hell-like dimension, full of fire, lava, and dangerous mobs.” Since I was looking for a beanie for teens, I thought this would be something they connect and relate to.

The ridge pattern in the design resembles with the rising and falling heat waves while the colors definitely brings you closer to the molten lava. In order words, experience in the warmth in cold winter, with lava-like Nether Teen Beanie. Now that’s what I call a creative line.

Process:

The knitting instructions are extremely simple. The basic stitch knit and purl are used in this pattern. I have used straight knitting needles. I have made a flat rectangular design as shown below. Every row is turned to make this beanie. The sides of the rectangles are sown to form a beanie and one side is closed off to make the base of the beanie. I am using the bottom top approach here with Knit stitch (KS), Purl stitch (PS), Long-tail cast-on (LTCO) and bind-off (BO) knitting techniques.

BRIM:-

R1: LTCO. Total 110 counts.

R2: KS across; turn. Total 110 KS.

R3: Repeat R2 till you get 2″-2.5″ of the brim.  Do not cut the yarn.

The body continues from this step.

BODY:-

R1: PS across; turn. Total 110 PS

R2: KS across; turn. Total 110 KS

Repeat R1-R2 alternatively till you get the required height of the beanie and BO.

FINISHES:-

Lay flat the rectangular design. You can treat it a right side and the underneath as the wrong side. Sew the breadth of the rectangle with the right side inside. sew and close the top of the body of your beanie. Turn inside out to face the right side of the beanie.

Defining Dimensions:-

Optional Alterations:-

• Add pom-pom matching the colour with the edging or the base colour. There are different ways to create pom-pom.

• Attach flowers, beads or a bow made of crochet, plastic, suede leather etc to give cuteness to the hat.

• Put fur edging to give a different touch.

• Increase the height of the beanie to give slouchy effect.

• Increase or decrease the LCO to make the same design for different ages.

• Switch between the main colour and a contrast colour while working on the body of the beanie to make another beanie completely.

Remember: do not over accessorize it. This takes away the beauty of the pattern itself. Believe in elegant simplicity!!
