Kit - Knitting - Textured Silk Cap & Hats

Price: $40.00 - $56.99

Anne DesMoines designed and knitted the Textured Silk Cap and Silk Hat (with earflaps and back extension). The pattern was published in Piecework November/December 2014,  p21-24.  

Knit it for a special someone, using lace-weight Zola (100% bombyx spun silk) as one strand or 2 strands held together.  Or use fingering-weight Margaret (100% bombyx spun silk) Either yarn will work!

The red cap and black hat were knitted with Zola; the  golden-tan hat was knitted with Margaret.

You can purchase the undyed Zola yarn (approx 100g) or Margaret yarn (approx 100g) with or without the Piecework issue. 

For our dyed silk yarn that is ready to ship (Color Now!) click here for Zola or click here for Margaret

Thank you Piecework magazine for the lovely photos of the cap and hats.
