Description
Isabell Kraemer is one of our favorite designers at Stars Hollow Yarns. Leni is a casual hat, worked in the round from the folded brim to the top. Combining one strand of mohair lace and one strand of fingering weight merino results in a soft and sumptuous look.
The hat is started with a provisional cast on and some ribbing which is then hidden when the main body of the hat is worked. A small delicate band of texture comes next and adds just the right amount of interest.
…let me shout out a big THANK YOU for your love, your ongoing support, your trust, your understanding, your patience….for being by my side on this journey…. hope you enjoy this little hat pattern!
