Description

The Undivided Hat was designed during the 2020-2021 covid-19 lockdown and was inspired by the sudden barriers and divisions introduced amongst people due to the pandemic, which are symbolised by the geometrical lines and dots in the design. Despite the significant limitations, many people have shown resilience, courage and willingness to assist the ones who on the contrary were in need of help. Through this global act of solidarity, though separated and kept afar, we remained Undivided.
This design is released as a free pattern, as a thank you to everyone who made themselves available to help during the pandemic and allowed us all to get through it.
