Edited: Added theme to title, thanks for the nudge @[email protected] :)

I made this as a birthday present for a friend. It is my first succesful project using circular needles. I used 5mm needles, with 40cms cable for the body of the beanie, then switched to a 120cm cable and used the magic loop technique for the decreases.

It is mt first time trying this "bubble" stitch and I was so nervous doing the K4B and 'undoing' stitches lol.

Yarn is worsted weight Dreams in color 0002 from local store Revés Derecho

That’s such a pretty project and such a good picture of it! You definitely found a good background to take the picture against, it fits the pastel coloration of the yarn. I feel this is super above my skill level but I feel tempted to try it…

You should give it a try! Bubble stitch is pretty fun once you get the hang of it. You could just make a practice square for a little pillow. https://www.studioknitsf.com/bubble-stitch/
