I wear hats all fall, winter and spring. I tend to be cold all the time, so it's a great way to stay warm through the chilly months! One of my favorite hats I wear is from Hetterson so I am excited that Hannah is sharing her secret knitting pattern with us today!
She used the gorgeous Quince yarns from Maine to make this adorable speckled hat. If you want the same colors for your hat, use the Puffin yarns in Nasturtium and Egret. Or, explore the Quince + Co. yarns to find your own favorite colors. We had a tough time choosing!
We paired the hat with the softest cashmere striped sweater from Frances May, a vintage skirt, organic cotton socks from Fred Meyer, and Swedish clogs by Torpatoffeln (Find similar clogs here). Thank you to Lisa Warninger for the beautiful photography.

This is great, what a nice hat! I'm not sure how I missed it before, but that's so exciting Quince and Co. are based in Maine. It's so dangerously tempting knowing I can get their yarn in Portland... oh man. I used their yarn to make myself a sweater, and I love it, it's great to work with.

I absolutely love this pairing. Love, love love. I'm a huge fan of stripes. If only I could pull off hats...

This hat looks a lot like the 'Strawberries hat' a lot of newborns in Sweden get at the hospital! Cute grown-up version!
