Product Details

Bees are exceptionally clever creatures. Honeybees use their beeswax to create strong and highly efficient honeycomb structures, which they use for accommodation, food storage, and a place to raise their larvae. The Beeswax Hat and the matching Cowl and Mitts celebrate the beauty of this structure.

The Beeswax Hat's honeycomb texture is made up of simple mini-cables, which can be knit without a cable needle. I've included instructions for my favourite twist method, which I find intuitive and easy to remember, but you can use any method you prefer.

Materials: 1 skein of Vintage Purls Max (75% merino, 25% nylon; 227yds/208m per 100g skein), or 119 (181)yds/109 (165.5)m of DK or light worsted-weight yarn.

You will also need a cable needle (optional), an end-of-round stitch marker, and a tapestry needle for weaving in ends.

Sizes 1 (2) to fit head circumference: 17-20 (21-24)”/43-51 (53.5-61)cm

Both charted and written instructions are included.
