MATSU HAT KIT

Designed by Duke of Nikko

Each KIT includes the Pattern and the amount of Yarn required.

 This knitted hat pattern incorporates a Japanese kanji character, Matsu, for the word “Pine,” which is the inspiration and theme for this hat! Pine trees are adored in Japan, and are the traditional subject of many beautiful artworks. The motifs representing this iconic tree flow around the hat just like the Byobu (Japanese multi-panel folding screens), presenting a series of stylized images showing different shapes and aspects of pine trees.

In Stock Yarns:  We will pick and ship your in-stock yarn as soon as possible, within a few business days. Please note that if your order also includes dyed-to-order yarns you will need to allow up to 1 - 2 weeks for us to dye and ship your yarn.

Working with Hand Dyed Yarn:While we strive for consistency, due to the hand dye process variations may exist between (and with some colourways within) dye lots. Therefore it is important to order sufficient yarn for your project, and if a uniform result is preferred we suggest alternating skeins. We hope that you will value and appreciate the beautiful and unique creations of the hand dye process and are always happy to assist you in working with hand dyed yarns!
