Bousta Beanie by Gudrun Johnston in Jamieson & Smith 2 ply

Venture to Shetland hillsides and summertime wildflower fields with the 2017 Shetland Wool Week Hat, Bousta Beanie by Gudrun Johnston. Bousta is wonderful to wear through the seasons, with enough slouch to pull over your ears in the winter cold. This timeless pattern was updated in 2020 to include instructions for knitting the Bousta as a beret. Gudrun Johnston is a celebrated Shetland-born designer with a skill for creating gorgeous textured designs with Shetland wool. She is known for accessible modern-day patterns that are greatly inspired by her heritage.

This yarn set includes 4 balls of Jamieson & Smith 2 ply 100% Shetland Wool, a traditional and sturdy fingering weight wool with crisp stitch definition, ideal for fair isle knitting. All the Shetland wool you need to bring this design to life is tucked in a The Woolly Thistle tote with a surprise stitch marker. We've curated two colorways in addition to Gudrun's original design that let the pattern and woolly textures in this beanie shine. Get ready to cast on!
