Name: Black Brook Beanie
Brand: Canadutch

The name of this design comes from the designer's favourite beach on Cape Breton Island, where she grew up. She particularly chose the linen stitch for this as she wanted to create something that represented the rocks in the sand at the beach. Not the white sandy beach most love, rather a sandy but rugged Canadian beach that’s a favourite among many islanders!

This soft, warm hat is great for winter. With a doubled band and stranded colourwork creating a thick fabric for the body of the hat, it’s guaranteed to keep you warm in the winter months.

The pattern is very flexible in regards to size and who will be wearing it. A change of colour, pompom or without, adding or removing a few rows to get the right amount of slouch, you can create the perfect hat for your needs.

Hi! I'm Tammy, a Canadian (originally from Cape Breton Island in Nova Scotia) currently living in France with my Dutch husband and very spoiled little dog. My crafty passion is knitting, but I also dabble in crochet, cross stitch, and quilting. I first learned to knit and crochet as a young teen. Both my mother and grandmother were very crafty and taught me to knit and crochet, but I unfortunately didn't really catch the bug until much later after I was already living an ocean away. Thankfully, the internet was there to fill in the gaps so that I could teach myself and pick up where I left off. I wasn't really serious about any crafts, working on just one or two projects each winter, until a few years ago when I picked knitting back up as a hobby during a stressful period. It seems to have stuck and I have been knitting more and more since. I have also started designing, which I find really fun and exciting. I want to help newer knitters find fun and interesting projects that they are able to knit with confidence. You can find my website here: Canadutch.
