YARN – less then 100gr of a bulky rustic or tweed yarn – as Reynolds Icelandic Lopi Tweet, but I’d like to test it with Noro Transition - I’ve succesfully used Drops Eskimo Tweed.

Size: Adult M

I started this project from the fiber – undyed old norwegian – that I spun with my wheel.
I got a 100gr x 90m skein, so I decided to make a special, very warm hat.
It’s s sort of peruvian bonnet with a nordic look… well, I don’t know about the style, however this hat is very useful in a cold, windy, winter morning!

Enjoy!
