The Golden Rays hat is inspired by Scottish sunlight during autumn. As low golden rays shine through breaks in the grey cloud cover, the straight beams of light become almost geometric. There’s nothing more magical than those lines of sunlight streaming through the turning leaves on a crisp autumn morning.

The Golden Rays hat is a colourwork hat knit in the round using a longtail cast on. It can be knit in three sizes, Small (S) 17.5-20in, medium (M) 20-22.5in and large (L) for up to 25in.

The sample was knit in Rowan Felted Tweed in Alabaster and Turquoise, gauge can be achieved with both 4ply and DK yarn.
