Tosh is in the house

It's never too early to start thinking about spring. It will be coming - I think.

This week's Web-Letter from Classic Elite features a hat in Hanako.

Cotton and Linen combine for a summery yarn in a popular worsted weight. The linen fiber has a subtle sheen and adds body; cotton adds stitch definition and softness. This yarn gets even softer the more it’s worn and the light and vibrant palette is perfect for warm weather wear. The generous yardage per hank makes Hanako a good value.

One hank of Hanako makes this fun, summery hat. Allow the brim to flop, shading your eyes, or fold it up and secure with your favorite pin.

The hat is shown in the colour Thistle. It's on the way to us. See the colours currently in stock...
