Description
Pipe bands and a rolled hem, knitting in different directions and great tweed yarn – that‘s the hat „Dante“! The colour range of the original yarn gives you the possibility to create colourful kids hats and more subtle adult hats alike. Well, my hubby likes colours a lot, as you can see – the red and blue combination was his choice ;-)
The hat is partly knitted flat, partly in the round.
