Slouchy Beanie Hat - The pattern {Knitting}

Here it is.. We have a gauge, we have gathered the few notes I had taken, and made sense out of them.. The pattern is really easy - nothing fancy here. However it can probably be made more interesting, so it could be your blank canvas slouchy beanie pattern.

 Pattern: see below

Yarn: Rowan Kidsilk Haze - knitted in double (shown in steel #664)

Needle size: Circular 3 mm for brim and 3.5mm for the body of the hat
Gauge: 24 sts and 36 rows = 10 cm (4'') in larger needles in stockinette stitch

CO 108 sts - don't forget to mark the start of the beanie
Knit 4 rows of garter stitch (because you are using circular, that is knit, purl, knit, purl)
Change to larger needles
Knit the body of the beanie in stockinette - for about 21 cm (you can adjust this part to what would suit your style).
Start the decrease: start at the main marker, *k16, k2tog, add a marker* 6 times. You will repeat this row (decreasing the number of stitches to knit one by one) until you have 6 sts left on your needles. Leave a long tail to thread through the stitches.

And that is it! You have yourself a fashionable slouchy beanie hat for this winter that does not seem to end!

Let me know if you make one! I would love to see them. I even set up a Flickr group page for you to share your makes! So don't be shy!
