Albion Hat is a result of my collaboration with Maria from lemon hound, that’s located in Great Britain, hence the name of this hat.
Albion is one of the oldest names for England; and when I was a little girl I often wondered what life would be like there - surely such a romantic name could only apply to the most beautiful place in the world!:)

Many years later and I am amazed how small the world has become and especially our fiber community where no matter where we are, we are always connected. I hope when you knit this hat, you too will feel connected to our big knitty world!
