Silent Castle HAT is a bottom up knitted in a round beanie hat. It was inspired by Tenczyn Castle when we visited it during our holidays in Poland. The story says that one of the towers is hunted by Dorothy who was locked in and poor woman was never let go. It is a very easy hat to knit. It shows the arches of the balcony in the main square which hopefully will be reconstructed but in this hat one of them is different. It is the one where these days Dorothy likes to sit & enjoys the present of the coming visitors. You can also knit a version without Dorothy’s arch.
