Hemera is the hat you’ll reach for time and time again. She’s graceful with a nod to fun and she’ll keep your head toasty on the coldest of days.

Featuring all over lace and texture, Hemera is quick and positively addictive to knit. The winding stitches are quick to master and the oversized lace intuitive to follow. Add a fluffy pom pom for a splash of cute or enjoy the stunning crown detail without.

Knitted from the bottom up and in the round, Hemera is perfect for experienced knitters and beginners looking for a challenge.

The pattern includes written and charted instructions, plus links to tutorials that make knitting new stitches a breeze.
