With a deep brim perfect for folding or wearing slouchy and an allover, leaf-inspired lace pattern, the Selcouth Hat will keep your ears snug and hair in place as you dream of wandering along windswept moors.

The design for this hat was inspired by the idea of summer leaves and ivy - I was looking for a toque that would fit over hair braids and buns and this hat does the job wonderfully! The result is a hat that’s lightweight, but still warm, fits over hairpins, and keeps the ears warm (even in a Canadian winter), but is light enough to wear into spring!

The Selcouth Hat is knit in the round from the brim up. The stitch pattern (including crown decreases) are both charted and written.
