Delamere Hat​


The Delamere Hat features an elongated chevon pattern with a deep texture which holds the heat well. It has a comfortable fit with a wide turn-back brim for extra warmth around the ears.

The central crown shaping gives a dynamic rounded star motif with six, seven or eight points depending on the size. The pattern includes instructions for three different sizes so you can make hats for all the family.
