There is something so elegant about classic aran knitting. Strong, raised lines criss-cross to create surface movement while deep textures, like timeless moss stitch, add warmth and richness. The Fresh Snow Hat features a striking diamond, a moss filled cable and whimsical bobbles to create a bold traditional motif. This hat is worked upward from the brim and finishes with an applied I-cord edge. Shaping is worked cleverly into the cable background lending a smooth, seamless look to the classic ‘tam’ styling.
