I realized a little while back that I didn't have a beanie called the Ashley Beanie yet and when I worked up this beanie I fell completely in love with it. I have designed a lot of beanies over the years there is something about the texture of this beanie that I find amazing and it has become my ultimate favorite! The gorgeous yarn from Chroma Worsted yarn from Knit Picks gives it an extra pop and shows that variegated yarn works fabulously with this texture! Now, I can say I have an Ashley Beanie and it is my favorite!

Notes
- Chain 1 will NOT count as a stitch.
- Joining: When ending the rounds, you will join with a slip stitch into the 1st stitch (not the chain 1).
- If you notice that the beanie becomes floppy, that is perfectly normal, once you add more length, it will add weight and the beanie will take shape!
