On a recent trip to Iceland, I fell in love with the beautiful handknits
and yarn, as well as the stunning country. And so, the I Dream of
Iceland hat series was born! Feather Canyon is the third in this
series.

The actual name of this amazing place is Fjaðrárgljúfur, but I can’t
say that very well. It translates to Feather (the name of the river)
Canyon. Among all the gorgeous Icelandic scenery, this stood out
for the incredible moss covered rock formations.

Hat is knit in the round with stranded colorwork.

I knit and designed this in Istex Léttlopi, an Icelandic wool yarn. It’s so lovely to use, I recommend you do the same, but of course any yarn that gets gauge will work! You will need one ball of the main color and small amounts of the two contrast colors.
