Product Details
Pesciolino (little fish in Italian) is a beanie knitted from the brim to the top.
Yarn I've used: Scheepjes Merino Soft: 30 gr of main colour (M) and about 10 gr in 4 contrasting colours (A, B, C and D) or any DK weight yarn for about 50 m/ 54 yards in main colour and 4 x 20 m/ 22 yards in contrasting colours. Allow some more yarn for the pompom.
You can use any DK yarn. You can see a couple of alternatives in the material list, but there's really plenty of choices! You just need 4 different colours, one ball each.

- Notes
- Yarn choice: I recommend using DK merino and merino blends. Wool is very forgiving in colourworks, and merino wool is perfect for children and babies.
