Kabouter is the Dutch word for elf or gnome, and describes this Hat perfectly!

A deep garter stitch Brim feeds into a stylised pixie Crown with cables running up the side of the Hat. Topped with an I-cord, Kabouter is full of whimsy.

Worked in the round and bottom up, this Hat is provided in 4 sizes.
