This hat was designed with elegance and luxury in mind, because we all deserve a little of that, don’t we? Sartori was knitted using a single strand of mohair silk held with a light fingering weight yarn and the result is spectacular!
The folded brim will keep your ears nice and cosy while the delicate lace catches your eye as it travels up towards the flower-shaped crown. This show-stopping hat will be one you reach for all winter long. The small size makes it a perfect project for knitting during the warmer weather too!

Sartori is Designed to be worn with 2-3” of negative ease for a snug fit. Finished circumference: 18 (20, 22)”/ 46 (51, 56) cm. Fit comes down to personal preference though, and a looser fit will certainly accommodate more hair!
