Soulmates Hats Kit

The Soulmates Hats, by Meghan Babin, are two cozy beanies worked from three skeins of Hudson + West Co. Weld in alternating colors, creating two perfectly complementary hats. Hat A is a longer slouch hat, to wear either long or folded up once for a closer fit, while Hat B is a skull cap made to fit close to the head and cover the ears. Weld is held doubled throughout for sections of solid and marled fabric, creating two distinctly different, but similar hats.

This pre-assembled kit includes:

• the digital pattern
• Weld, 3 skeins total
• a H+W project bag
• 2 H+W foldover leather tags
