Venetian chimneys are distinct. Just look up and you see them all over Venice with their inverted pyramid tops. These chimneys often have seagulls on top, so my tam does too.

This tam is part of an ongoing set of tam designs based on Venice. Refer to the Grand Canal Tam, the Miracoli Tam, and the Palazzo Ducale Tam in my Ravelry store.

There is one size that fits most heads. You can adjust with the calculations from mary Rowe’s book Tams.

1 skein each of Jamiseons Spindrift in Amber, Lagoon, White and Slate and bits of black and yellow for the seagull feet and beaks.

You’ll need a 10.5 or 11-inch plate for blocking,
