Hartshorne Hat Kit (Yarn + Pattern)

Impress everyone you see this winter with your own Hartshorne Hat! Its deceptively simple row repeats make for a great dive into fair isle crochet colorwork with an absolutely stunning and seemingly elaborate design!

This listing is for two skeins of yarn dyed on our Winter Worsted base, and a copy of the pattern. You can also choose a kit with a mystery faux fur pom. You are free to mention preferences for the pom at checkout, but no promises - I will definitely match it as best as I can though!

ABOUT THE DESIGN:

Construction:
This hat is constructed bottom up. First, the ribbed brim is made in turned rows. The first and last rows are seamed to form a ring, and the body is worked in continuous, unturned rounds. After reaching the desired height, there are decrease rows and the top of the hat is cinched closed.
