This hat pattern is 33% off now through 11:59 PM July 25, 2022. No coupon needed.
The origins of Chullo hats goes back hundreds of years. In the Peruvian Andes, they are traditionally knit by men. I am not of Peruvian or Spanish origin & do not claim these to be authentic, but just a love letter to an ancient knitting tradition. After looking at hundreds of photos and many books, I have created my own knit “mashup” of color and shape inspired by these caps.
