Size
One size. The hat is given in the pattern as a women’s size, with no measurements. The scarf is 240 cm long and 8 cm wide when finished (94½″ × 3¼″).

Gauge
14 sts × 20 rows = 10 cm (4″) in stocking stitch on 5 mm needles, before fulling (hat). The pattern gives no gauge for the scarf.

Needles used in the pattern (included when you choose the kit with needles)
Hat: 5 mm (US 8) circular needle, 40 cm, and 5 mm double-pointed needles
Scarf: 6 mm (US 10) needles — the kit with needles has a 6 mm circular needle in 80 cm, used back and forth

Not included
A laundry bag (washing pouch) for fulling in the washing machine, and card for two pompom templates.

How it is knitted
Both pieces are fulled (felted) in the washing machine at 40°C. The hat is knitted in the round from the brim up on 5 mm: a doubled brim that widens to a purl fold line and is slip-stitched inside, a 12-round band of purl ridges, then a stocking-stitch crown decreased to the top and drawn together. The scarf is 13 stitches of garter stitch knitted back and forth on 6 mm to 220 cm. After fulling, a big white Léttlopi pompom is sewn to each end.

Design: Védís Jónsdóttir; the hat is based on an old pattern by Gerd Paulsen — pattern from Lopi No. 25 (no. 17), Ístex.

Good to know

Fjúk — your questions, answered

What sizes are they?

One size. The pattern gives the hat as a women’s size, with no measurements. The scarf is 240 cm long and 8 cm wide when finished.

Is yarn for both pieces included?

Yes — 2 balls of black tweed Álafosslopi for the hat, 2 for the scarf, and 1 ball of white Léttlopi for the two pompoms.

Why knit the scarf to 220 cm if it ends up 240 cm?

The pattern casts off at 220 cm, fulls the scarf and notes that garter stitch stretches lengthwise; 240 cm is the finished length it gives.

How are they felted?

Each piece goes into a laundry bag and through the washing machine at 40°C. Then the hat crown is shaped and the brim laid flat to dry, and the scarf is laid flat to dry. The pattern gives no shrinkage figures.

What does the kit with needles include?

A 5 mm (US 8) circular needle in 40 cm and 5 mm double-pointed needles for the hat, and a 6 mm (US 10) circular needle in 80 cm for the scarf — all ADDI. The pattern just says 6 mm needles for the scarf; it is knitted back and forth, which a circular needle does well.
