Iona Hat

Experience the warmth and charm of Scottish weather with our beautifully designed cable knit hat pattern! Cable patterns not only create a thick, dense fabric that protects you from the cold, but they also envelop your hands in warmth and comfort. This hat's intricate cable designs are inspired by traditional Scottish knitting techniques and the stunning patterns carved on ancient stone crosses and cross slabs found in Iona and across Scotland.

The knitting process for this hat is both engaging and fulfilling: the brim is expertly worked sideways, followed by the body and crown being knitted from the bottom up. This unique construction allows for a snug fit and a stylish appearance that is perfect for chilly days.

Please note that the pattern is available in a charted format only, making it easy for experienced knitters to follow along and create a stunning hat to showcase their skills.

Why not elevate your knitting project by creating a matching Iona Cowl and a pair of Iona Mittens? All three patterns are thoughtfully compiled in the Iona Collection, offering a cohesive and stylish ensemble that embodies the spirit of Scottish craftsmanship. By choosing the Iona Collection, you'll have everything you need to keep warm and look great during those brisk Scottish walks. Whether you’re a seasoned knitter or a beginner looking for a challenge, this collection has something for everyone!
