It begins at the crown with a saddle-style panel. Stitches are picked up around that panel and worked downwards, a ribbed edging frames the face, and a knitted tie is attached at the end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt 12 stitches to 10 cm on 8 mm needles it is the fastest knit in the collection. Three balls, and a weekend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFibreknit is not spun in the usual way. Instead of twisting the fibre, Bramble \u0026amp; Fleece knit it into a fine chainette tube, which traps air and makes the yarn far lighter than its thickness suggests. On a hood that matters, because there is no weight pulling down on the crown. The blend is British Bluefaced Leicester and Masham, fully traceable, spun and finished in Yorkshire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSkill Level:\u003c\/strong\u003e Easy (Adventurous beginners) ★★ (2 out of 5)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eStocking stitch and rib throughout.
