Crofty (Cornish Tin hat)
link to thread for pics, chat and help, if needed
Surprisingly easy to work - only one colour per row.
South Crofty closed in 1998, the last tin mine in Europe.
Poldark is still open to visitors (but seemed a bit obvious as a name ☻; if you haven’t seen the BBC series and like costume dramas, you really should take a look.)
Cornish Tin II is a very special limited edition yarn by Blacker Yarns.
PATTERN IS CHARTED ONLY - but there are 2 charts, one for light MC; one for dark MC so you don’t have to reverse - just pick the one closest to your yarns.
If you pick the right colours, it can look like a Dalek - I didn’t do it deliberately, but once I’d spotted it, it made me laugh. ☻
Many thanks to the testers:
