This hat has a greenish-grey colour and stitch patterns that imitate the odorant thyme leaves.
It is knitted in the round from brim to top. It starts with a large ribbed brim that may be unfolded or folded. The ribbing of the brim merges nicely in the leafy pattern of the body. Knitted with aran weight wool, it is a very cosy hat, warm, large and slouchy.
