Porthtowan Beanie and Slouch – Project Kit
Designed for us by Faye Perriam-Reed the Porthtowan is an airy lightweight hat suitable for all year round. The pattern you will receive contains instructions for a beanie or a slightly longer slouch style hat.
Our kit contains either 1 or 2 of our 50g Bam-boozle 4-ply 50g skeins, depending on the size and style you choose to knit. It will arrive with the pattern in one of our recyclable cardboard boxes.
The pattern is written so you can work the lace from a written pattern or chart, depending on your preference.
The sample in our photos is knitted in Charcoal shade, but you can pick from any of our gorgeous Bam-boozle shades.
