I was introduced to Morehouse Farm and their amazing merino yarn in 2018 and have been a huge fan ever since. I knew I wanted to use their merino yarn for a cozy and warm cold weather accessory and thus, the Morehouse Hat was born. Using just three quarters of a skein of their bulky merino yarn and a few hours, you can knit this cabled hat — with yarn to spare for an optional pom pom! I think this is the perfect project for both gifting and selling at local handmade markets. Happy knitting!
