All of my beanies are pretty old and outdated and I really love the sweater-looking beanies that are in style right now. The catch is that I can't knit and I really don't want to brave the insane crowds that are going on this time of year... So I decided to resolve my issue with a safe, indoor DYI project. 

Tools you will need:

old sweater

beanie to measure with

scissors

sewing machine

1. Find an old sweater of yours or who-evers. 

2. Measure where you'll want to cut your beanie with an existing beanie. Make sure you use the bottom edge of the sweater to create a nice, clean edge for the brim of the hat. I used the hood part of my sweater so I would do less sewing.

In time for the holidays, I have a Peace on Earth Package available in the shop! It includes an 8x10 poster along with 7 gift tags/ornaments in a digital printable format. 

I'm really into this hand-written, original, natural style and it flows perfectly with the rustic Christmas theme. 

And here are the freebies I promised: some free gift tags/ornaments to print on your own! Just click on the link here to download them. 

Happy Christmas!
