Lagan Hat
OFFER: Add the Lagan Hat, Mitts & Cowl to your basket and receive the cowl for FREE.
The River Lagan is the main river that flows through Belfast, out into Belfast Lough and then the Irish Sea. As a child I walked the towpath with my dad and sister, and in recent times it has become a favourite walk for my husband and me. From Autumn through to Spring, a hat is often a necessary accessory!
The Lagan Hat is a basic DK weight hat, with the cables giving it just a little bit extra interest, and representing the winding nature of the river.
The pattern has four sizes, ranging from toddler to large adult. It is knit using a short circular but can be adapted to knit using the magic loop method or with dpns. A longer cable or DPNs will be required for the crown decreases.
