If working from the magazine version, please be sure to check the errata page before beginning this pattern, as there are sections missing from the magazine. This has been corrected in the Ravelry download version.

Diverging cables travel across this hat, mimicking the maelstrom of Saltstraumen, the strait just outside Bodø with one of the strongest tidal currents in the world. Lofoten Wool’s 2-trådet Røstkolleksjon makes the perfect companion, with wool from Røst in undyed and plant-dyed shades.

Worked in the round from the bottom up.

Finished dimensions
