The Portobello hat is a fun and quirky mosaic knitting project. Mosaic knitting is a great introduction to colourwork as you only work with one colour yarn at a time, creating an intricate effect that is striking but simple!

Using TOFT’s luxury British wool, this hat is a quick and rewarding make. Only the finest fleeces are selected for this British wool blend, which makes using it a real pleasure. You can buy TOFT yarn here
