It’s a hat with the Loch Ness Monster on it. Need we say more?

2026 - New PDF with four sizes added!

Well OK - knitted in JC Rennie Miniballs you need 5x10g in five colours, there’s plenty of leftovers. If you’re using another yarn then any 4 ply/fingering yarn with about 50m of each colour. I’ve added an eye in a scrap of black but you can use Loch colour instead, and a wee red tam on one Nessie which is optional. The red tam is embroidered on afterwards.

The colourwork is charted, all other instructions are written.

Sizes included are Baby/Child/Small Adult/Large Adult

Designed to celebrate the lovely Loch Ness Knit Fest 2017.
