Ilo hat knitting pattern by Ysolda Teague

The designer : Ysolda Teague is one of the best-known knitting designers, notably with her flagship model, the Ishbel shawl. She offers us original models with attention to detail and a lot of creativity in construction and knitting techniques.

The model : with or without a pompom? This is the only question to ask yourself before starting to knit this superb hat. Twists and bobbles, a magnificent mix.

It is part of the "knitworthy 5" collection, a perfect collection for small gifts to the people who matter to you.

The pattern: the original pattern in English and its translation into French (no download possible), are printed on bristol paper by me.
