Yarn Kits for Scord Hat

Sale price$41.00

This is a pre order. Your kit will ship the week of October 26th.

This kit is for the yarn only 

The Scord Hat is worked using Jamieson's of Shetland Spindrift with 3 strands held together. For the sample I also added in a silk mohair. The silk mohair is not part of this kit. The hat can be knit without it. However if you purchase the Little Wave Vest kit you might have enough left over silk mohair to use for the hat too!

Spindrift shades used: Hairst (MC), Old Gold, Salmon.

2 balls of MC and 1 ball of each contrast.

  • Please note that the pattern is NOT part of this kit. The pattern is only in my new book "Shetland Shades: Stories in Wool"   
  • Find Shetland Shades book here.
