Lutsen was a pattern included in the Bare Naked Wools 2019 Red Scarf scholarship fundraiser. Knit in the lovely Bare Naked Wools Festivus 5.0 yarn in the colorway Union Suit.

Wool hats and cables. A favorite combination of mine.

This quick knit hat may be knit with or without a cable needle, whichever is your preference. The 100% wool creates beautiful stitch definition making the cables and twists pop.
