hats
There are two styles of hats, the traditional fisherman's kep with tassel, either with turnup or lined, and the shorter cloche hat, lined. The hats match the patterns of the scarves and wristwarmers.
Shetland wool is used for these. Also, I have written knitting patterns for the traditional hat which are available either alone or as a kit with the required yarn.

The fishermen wore hats such as these when they went to the fishing grounds, 40 miles offshore. This pattern matches the family 1) scarves and wristwarmers. The hats are knitted by hand in pure Shetland wool, using the same heritage colours as for the superfine merino collection.
