Unisex adult beanie in Aran yarn with Fair Isle design.

This beanie is worked in 100% pure Shetland Aran wool and makes up a thick and warm hat. With wear and washing, the fibres will felt together until the hat feels more like fabric than yarn.

This hat is worked in the round with a Fair Isle motif. If using circular needles, you may need to change to DPNS to work the decreasing on the crown, if not using the magic loop method.

Skog is the Swedish word for “forest” and this hat was originally designed for a Swedish customer who wanted something to reflect his homeland.
