Buggiflooer Beanie Knit Kit

The Buggiflooer Beanie was designed as the Shetland Wool Week hat for 2023 when Alison Rendall was the Patron. “Buggiflooer” is the Shetland word for sea campion, a wildflower that grows abundantly around the Shetland coast and near Alison’s home by the sea. The design of the hat was inspired by this flower.

The Shetland Wool Week 2023 knitting pattern, ‘Buggiflooer Beanie’, was designed by Shetland nurse and 2023 Shetland Wool Week Patron, Alison Rendall.

Inspired by wild Shetland flowers, the design is knitted ‘in the round’ using circular and/or double-pointed needles. The pattern explains the options to use 3 or 6 colours, so you can choose the best kit to suit your knitting ability. Needles and sizing are explained below.
