Yarn amount: about 2 skeins (knitting in 2 strands)
Gauge: on needles size 4 — 17 stitches in 10 cm
Head circumference: 53–54 cm

Instructions

1. Cast on
   Cast on 88 stitches + 1 for joining in the round.

2. Ribbing
   Knit ribbing for 3–4 cm.

3. Main section
   Then switch to stockinette. Place markers every 11 stitches — total 8 wedges.
   Begin increases before each marker using a lifted increase.

4. Increases
   Make 6 increases across a row.

5. Stockinette knitting
   Then knit in the round for 13 rounds (about 5 cm).

6. Decreases
   Begin decreases in the same way before each marker, knitting 2 stitches together.
   Decreases are worked every other round.

7. Crown shaping
   Continue decreasing until 4 stitches remain.
   From the remaining stitches, work a small top for the hat using the i-cord method.

8. Finishing
   When the "pip" reaches about 2 cm in height, bind off the stitches and weave in the ends.

🧶 Result:
A versatile, warm, and stylish beanie with a neat "pip" on the crown.
Wash, dry, wear — and enjoy the coziness and a fashionable look!
