Kate Davies loves hat-knitting, so it was no surprise to her followers when she decided to create Milarrochy Heids, the perfect book of hat designs. Kate invited twelve friends to join her in the challenge of creating a range of hats of wide variety and hue. Heid is the Scots word for head, and inside these pages, you’ll find fifteen fabulous heids to choose from. From Ute Vos’s simple stripes to Virginia Sattler-Reimer’s complex kaleidoscopic crown, from Felicity Ford’s exuberant Featherheid to Emily Williams’ stunning double-knitted Tarradale, the heids in these pages are as varied as their creators. Established designers like Ella Gordon and Dianna Walla meet emerging talent like Justyna Haberkowa and Sarah Mackay, drawing creative inspiration from landscape and location, flora and fauna, childhood memory and medieval architecture. With an introduction by Kate and stunning photography around Loch Lomond by Tom Barr, this book will surely bring you a warm and happy heid.
