An elegant and warm hat, this topper will keep your medieval knight cozy on the longest and darkest crusade. Knit with 50% merino wool, the fair-isle carries give the hat’s upper a thickness almost equal to the cuffed rib brim, making this hat super cozy. This is a great project for using up leftover balls of sport weight yarn.
