Riihivilla Hat

Another project from stash!! I bought a mittens’ kit from Riihivilla (Riihivilla-natural dyeing, plants, mushrooms and pure finnsheep wool lovely to work with, and the subtle colors are amazing.) but I realized I am not in a mood for mitts, so went for a hat, with a liner band. The outside Pretty on the inside Music to my eyes Riihivilla hat "Riihivilla hat" top
