This is a pattern to knit a beanie worked using the stranded colourwork technique. It is worked from the bottom rib up with decreases shaping the crown.

Included are instructions for the Ladderback/Invisible Jacquard technique if you would like a less visible tacking of floats over longer single colour areas.
