Höttö is a wonderfully light, fluffy and warm beanie. It’s worked with three strands of silk mohair, giving ample opportunities for colour play / fading. And it’s excellent for using up scrap yarns. The beanie is worked as long tube from crown increases to crown decreases. Once it’s finished, it’s folded double.
