The Peacock Hat and its matching Peacock Capelet are just the accessories to add an extra layer of warmth to your winter wardrobe while styling it up with their striking patterns inspired by the ‘eyelets’ in a peacock’s tail. Both pieces are worked bottom up, beginning with a rib that morphs into textured pattern and ends – for the capelet – in a voluminous folded collar.
Peacock Hat and Peacock Capelet come in five sizes, from toddler to adult. Knit in the round with two strands of Knitting for Olive yarn held together, they are a quick set to make.
