Based on my Selkie Socks, the Selkie Hat features traditional gansey stitch patterns. Knits, purls, and twists/cables work together to create this simple, classic hat. A few rounds of contrasting color add visual interest and a chance to make a hat that is uniquely yours.

Sizes: Actual circumference of hat. Will fit a head slightly larger.
