um, i dont think that normal beenies having more friction is that big of a disadvantage, i always find normal beenies a little painful due to the little knot where all the seems connect at the top. but if u wana reduce friction maybe u can stitch on a lil sheet of polyester from clothes u dont wear nemore.

I've been using a beanie with a kneepad on the inside, but if you're concerned about friction you could easily sow/tape the pad on the outside which would reduce friction.

The pads I got on sale for like $3 when I realized they were to small for my knees I figured I'd just make a headspin beanie with them, the beinie I already had, although I saw helmets on sale during christmas time for $10 (all at big 5 where you go for cheapo sporting goods).

my friend, a bboy from Bulgaria, tought me not too long ago how to make a headspin beanie, so this is what he told me to do

1. take ur hat
2. get a sponge
3. knit the sponge to the inside of the hat
4. (now i dont really know how to explain this..) When u buy mandarines in a wooden box, the cover is usually made of some sort of orange net. Take that net and knit it to the outside of the hat

uh i tried to find a picture of the net im talkin about, but i cant seem to find any >< if anyone knows what im talkin about and can explain better, please do


peace

You guys lack creativity. Try stiching polythene cover on to your beanie, and inside you stitch something like sponge to make it cosy. I have never tried it but i am gonna. I cant afford a helmet.
