Barn Elms
The Barn Elms hat was inspired by a row of trees dappled by autumnal sunshine – something that is recreated beautifully by the use of a kettle-dyed yarn – whilst the crown shaping is reminiscent of tree rings. It is a unisex hat that makes a great travel project and is also suitable for advanced beginners.
