Madingley Beanie Hat
|
|
Textural detailing and a chill-beating yarn combination provide a must-have knitted ladies’ beanie for the autumn.
The Madingley Beanie Hat features a double-banded rib pattern which gives a comfortable fit with that extra feminine touch. It would look equally at place on the way to work or on a long country walk. The pattern is worked with two strands of a soft double knitting yarn held together to give extra warmth for a season-long beanie. Co-ordinating Cowl: The lead photo was taken in Nymans, West Sussex, UK and features our daughter, Anna Alway, wearing this hat and the co-ordinating Teversham Cowl.
