Handmade Holiday Gifting: Mrs. Moon Plump Swirl Hat

handmade holiday gifting with fs

As we begin to count down to the holidays, time is of the essence! Now, more than ever, we need quick knits (and as the weather turns colder, it doesn’t hurt if they’re cozy too). Mrs. Moon Plump is a super bulky yarn that has been sold out for weeks but is now back in stock! This yarn is a combination of superfine merino from Australia and baby Alpaca, making it incredibly soft.  Our favorite project for this yarn is the Swirly Hat, which you can get for free with purchase!

This Swirly Hat knit project can be made with just on skein - including the pom pom! If you want a contrast pom, two skeins will net you two hats. One for you and one for a gift!

This dynamic hat is as fun to knit as it is soft to touch, and with only one skein require, will make an amazing gift for anyone on your list. Make it with a pompom or without. Increase the needle gauge to make it a slouch hat instead of a beanie. And, with a shipment freshly arrived from the UK the color choices are near endless. This works up quick, so make sure you knit one for yourself, too!

Materials:

  • 1 Skien of Mrs. Moon Plump
  • US 15 (10 mm) 16″ Circular Needles
  • US 15 Double Pointed Needles
  • Stitch markers
