Premium Kintyre Hat Kit (Large)

A pattern by A Fyne Yarn which has been inspired by the Dalintober Gansey, an example of which is housed in Campbeltown Museum. Ganseys were fisherman's jumpers knit with 5 ply worsted spun wool in a tight gauge to keep the wind and rain out. This is a nod to that heritage and the rib throughout the brim and body of the hat means that the sizes will fit a wide range of head sizes. This larger hat would fit most people with a larger than average head

Our premium hat kit uses Aran weigh Blue Faced Leicester wool (150g) which is incredibly comfortable to wear and due to the natural process used to clean and process the wool at the natural fibre company, the wool still contains some lanolin which makes it so lovely to knit with. This kit contains everything you need to complete this garment including circular needles in 4.5mm and 5mm, a cable needle, stitch markers, measuring tape, sheep needle gauge, a darning needle, a unique Kintyre tag and the pattern itself.
