Rowan Isla PDF

Rowan Isla from Precious Knits is a beautiful Fair Isle baby/child’s hat knit in Baby Cashsoft Merino. The hat is knit flat from the bottom up and then seamed together and finished with a pompom. Want a head-turning baby shower gift? Knit the matching sweater, Natalia! Baby Cashsoft Merino is a wonderfully soft yarn that will create fabrics that are next-to-skin-soft, warm, and snuggly. Textured stitches will stand at attention and cables will pop with this merino, cashmere and acrylic blend. It’s machine washable too, making it perfect for this hat. The Fair Isle pattern is in chart form only.
