ABOUT
The I Smell Snow Beanie an eye-catching accessory that, you guessed it, features an intricate snowflake design that would make Lorelai Gilmore herself giddy!
This unique, crochet beanie is worked in joined rounds from the top-down, is made with DK weight yarn, and includes instructions for 5 sizes (from baby to large adult). Plus, the snowflake design is created using front post stitches, so it can be made with 1 or 2 colors!

BEHIND THE SCENES
This snowflake beanie has evolved so much since the first time I doodled it last year.
It started out as a very basic snowflake pattern that ended up looking great from the top but like stick people holding hands from the side.
After a few more sketches and about 3 more attempts, I finally perfected the snowflake design!
