An elegant tam featuring an allover old English cable pattern. Lyn means lightening in Norwegian, a feature that is echoed in the elaborate texture of the piece. The twisting cables of the design seem to shoot jaggedly towards the centre point on top of this hat, just like lightening bolts.
Made with bulky weight yarn, it’s perfect for those sub-zero days!

This tam was inspired by the Torden neckwarmer.
