This interesting and cozy hat is knit inside-out, letting you enjoy lots of simple knit stitches while working but seeing the great texture of purls setting off slipped stitches while wearing. It’s great for men or women, and the Woolfolk Får is second only to cashmere in softness. You’ll want to make one for every one you know!

If you purchase at least one skein of Får from Stix, you’ll get the pattern for free!
