Rattaat means wheels in Finnish. The inspiration for this hat came from a tv show where a Finnish actor Ville Haapasalo travels in Russia on a train and a jeep. Ville always wears a beanie and there was a competition to design and make a new one for him. This one did not make it to the final but I still wanted to share the pattern for all travellers to enjoy. The colourwork section of the brim will keep your ears warm.
