Turlough

This pattern is available from Ravelry.

With the Quince & Co Finch palette, there are over 43,000 possible 3-color combinations for this sweet hat. So…Dianna Walla has generously given us two in this pattern. We adore Dianna’s colorwork style, and this piece in particular features a really cool Latvian braid. In fingering weight Finch, this classic topper is a must-have for the chilly weather.
