Part of the Mint Collection, a collection of three cosy and beautiful hats by Anna Elliott. Inspired by various mints, each one has its own unique style and features. Buy all three Mint Collection patterns together and get a discount to the total price.

This quick to knit cabled hat has delightful mini cables give this hat the delicacy of the mint leaves it is named after, making it warming but not too chunky.

Worked from the brim to the crown, the stitch pattern is easy to remember and great for those who love to cable with or without a cable needle. Available in three sizes, the length is easy to adjust meaning you can make yours fitted, as shown, or slightly slouchier if that is your preferred style.
