Padme Snood

Now: £29.60 Was: ~~£37.00~~

To celebrate TOFT's 15th birthday in 2021, we revisited and perfected some of our most iconic and favourite designs from the previous decade and a half. These patterns helped shape TOFT into the company it is today, each one causing a twist and turn on our path to 2021 and beyond. These patterns follow our journey from the very early ready-to-wear collections through to the first creation of Edward’s Menagerie and to a brand new pattern that celebrates this year and the future.

The Padme snood is a classic design with a twist, a simplistically beautiful lace pattern with a lovely drape and stitch definition made in our ARAN yarn. This snood is a must have knit project from TOFT’s fashion-led range of knitted accessories. This design was first available in 2011.

“Often in my early design work I would break the mould with the perceived ‘rules’ of knitting. This is a classic simple lace pattern usually seen knitted in yarns that are thinner and very light and airy. Here it beautifully shows off our heavyweight ARAN yarn with lovely drape and stitch definition. Rather than creating a dense fabric, the open nature of the lace maximises the size of the snood and metreage of the yarn with big needles and a bouncy texture that traps the air to keep you just as snug. Our best-selling knitting kit in 2011 and another quick and easy make that is perfect for gift making this autumn and winter!”

A fantastic choice for a beginner looking to expand their knitting techniques, the Padme Snood is made using TOFT's pure wool range of seriously luxurious yarn spun in Yorkshire from the finest fleeces. Our pure wool yarns are versatile and can be used for most knitting and crochet patterns creating wonderful garments for adults and children, and a full range of accessories.

THIS KIT CONTAINS: 200g of TOFT's luxury ARAN pure wool in the colours of your choice.
