Named after the Italian fairytale, Cannetella is a beautiful Hat with gentle slouch and an easier than you think lace pattern. The arches, reminiscent of Renaissance architecture, work their way around the body and into the crown, where they come together with a gently gathered finish.

Worked in sock yarn, the Hat is knit in the round and bottom up, with 4 sizes included. The instructions are provided in both written and charted format, and the pattern includes an illustrated tutorial for the specialist cast on.


Cannetella, nach einem italienischen Märchen benannt, ist eine wunderhübsche, leicht slouchig fallende Mütze mit einem Ajourmuster, das sich einfacher stricken lässt, als es scheint. An Spitzbögen aus der Architektur erinnernde Bögen verlaufen durch den Hauptteil der Mütze zum Oberkopf, wo sie leicht gerafft zusammenfinden.

Diese Mütze wird in Sockenwollstärke in Runden von unten nach oben gestrickt; die Anleitung enthält 4 Größen und beinhaltet sowohl eine Strickschrift als auch reihenweise ausgeschriebene Anweisungen sowie einen illustrierten Technikkurs für die verwendete Anschlagsmethode.
