This detailed, handsome pattern takes you through construction pretty much one line at a time. It's hemmed (the hem is 12 rounds deep), which provides extra warmth around the perimeter of the head, and is a good anchor for the earflaps if you choose to have them. The pattern suits men or women equally well-- as you have to do is choose colours. And there are coordinating mittens to complete your homage to Scandinavia. Really a splendid hat with everything to recommend it.
