If you try making one thing from this collection, make it a Tunisian crochet one! This hat has been designed to look great in both two colours and a single colour, as seen in the project imagery. Whether you're looking to make a statement with a bold contrast, or take it easy with a more subtle look, this hat will keep you cosy and stylish throughout the seasons.
Tunisian crochet is a craft that creates a fabric resembling a more traditional knitted piece, rather than crochet as it is named. Also known as 'Afghan crochet', Tunisian crochet uses an elongated hook, usually with a cable and stopper attached to the end and holds multiple loops on the hook in a style similar to knitting. Some might say Tunisian crochet is a hybrid between knitting and crochet, and you can learn how with Kerry Lord's #tofttunisiancal on Instagram @toft_uk where she takes you through the basics of the craft to make the Trellis Headband (kit sold separately).
TOFT's fashion-led accessory and garment patterns are designed to be simple, stylish and fun to make while showcasing the quality of the fibre and yarn. Working with TOFT wool is always a pleasure, and we hope that you enjoy the softness and warmth that TOFT yarn provides.
THIS KIT CONTAINS: 100g of TOFT's luxury DK pure wool in the colours of your choice and an optional alpaca Pom Pom.
Shown here using:
Colour one: 50g Cocoa

ADD POM POM: Choose to add a TOFT alpaca pom pom to your hat in a coordinated or contrasting colour. TOFT alpaca pom poms are mounted onto press studs so they are interchangeable and your hat is fully washable. Sew the outer press stud to the top of your hat using yarn then snap it together with the pom pom side of the stud for the perfect finish to your hat!
