Knitting kit for Rikke Beanie No 1 in Önling No 3
Rikke Beanie No 1 is a timeless design that, with its elegant look, is an essential part of your winter wardrobe. The beanie comes in two sizes, depending on which needle size you choose. Working with needle size 3 mm / US 2.5 gives you a slightly smaller beanie while needle size 3,5 mm / US 4 results in a roomier fit.
Here we knit the beanie in one strand Önling No 3, our organic heavy merino wool, resulting in warm and cozy beanie with beautiful texture.
If you want to knit both Rikke Beanie No 1 and Rikke Wrist Warmers, you can find a combined knitting kit in Önling No 3 here.
If you prefer an even fluffier and more voluminous beanie, you can add a strand of Önling No 10, our exquisite silk mohair, which will make the beanie ultra-soft, warm, and comfortable. Please note! The silk mohair is not included in the kit!

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a knitting kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In some cases, however, you will not receive a pattern as part of your order:
If you buy a Yarn kit, you will only receive yarn for the design in question. Yarn kits are only sold for selected designs from external designers, where we do not have the right to sell the pattern. When a kit is sold without pattern, you can always see it in the header, which will say (excl pattern) in the header.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- For a select, few designs from PetiteKnit, we will add a printed pattern to the parcel - but for most PetiteKnit designs, you will not receive a pattern, as they are mainly sold as yarn kits (excl pattern). In these cases you will always be able to see it in the header, where it says (excl pattern).
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
