Buggiflooer Hat Kit

The 2023 Shetland Wool Week hat pattern is now out in the world!

This kit contains everything you need to make a very close approximation to the Jamieson & Smith version of the pattern. It also saves you $4 compared to buying each colour separately.

Please note this kit DOES NOT include the pattern - this year it has a minimal cost and can be downloaded from the Shetland Wool Week website. 

Yarn included:
1 x 81 (charcoal)
1 x FC34 (bright turquoise blue)
1 x 125 (copper)
1 x 121 (marled yellow)
1 x 1280 (light marled blue green)
1 x 202 (light fawn)

Designed by Alison Rendall, the hat is a distinctive design that incorporates traditional elements together with a flower motif. She chose the name Buggiflooer – a Shetland name for Sea Campion – which grows in abundance near her home by the sea. “I like to support Shetland language and culture by using Shetland words in my designs. This practice helps keep them alive in both usage and understanding, bringing them back into the forefront of people’s minds.”
