Signe Strømgaard has built on a family tradition and now publishes two annual hats when fall approaches - one for kids and one for adults.

The idea is to welcome the new knitting year and to celebrate the woollen seasons to come with a fun and wearable little project.

This is the annual adult hat for 2015 - named Femten (fifteen in Danish) with cables and popcorn.
