Fisherman's Rib Stitch beanie

This beanie was completely made with the fisherman rib stitch. It's a super stretchy and squishy rib stitch. I learned this ribbing through YouTube. If you want to learn all you have to do is go on YouTube and search "Fisherman's Rib Stitch". Easy-peasy.

Now on to the vague instructions!

Materials used:

Worsted weight yarn

3.25mm needles

Instructions:

• cast on 72 stitches
• fisherman's rib stitch for 5.5 inches then start decreasing
• Next time I will knit at least 6 inches the 5.5 was too short in my opinion. 
• DECREASING
• divide 72 by 6 
• use markers to divide into sections
• this is only to making decreasing easy 
• Row 1: k2tog every 6 stitches
• Every even row: knit fisherman's rib 
• Row 3: k2tog every 5 stitches
• Row 5: k2tog every 4 stitches
• Continue until there are 12 stitches left
• Cut yarn, close up the hole, weave in end. 

At 5.5 inches
