Add some vibrancy to your Christmas with this fab stranded colourwork hat and cowl set – it will see you all the way through to spring again!

Note For a comfortable fit, the hat is designed to fit the head with positive ease – the brim fits the brow with slight negative ease.

Top tip:
Knit your Fair Isle inside out! Flip your work so that the floats of yarn are carried along the outside – this will stop them being too tight.
