Signe Strømgaard has built on a family tradition and now publishes two annual hats when fall approaches - one for kids and one for adults.

The idea is to welcome the new knitting year and to celebrate the woollen seasons to come with a fun and wearable little project.

This is the annual kids hat for 2015 - named Et Fem (One Five in Danish), with adorable snowmen and falling snow.
