Knitting kit for Frida Brioche Hat in Önling No 4 + silk mohair
Frida Brioche Hat is an elegant and timeless hat that combines the softness and warmth of Önling No 4, organic merino wool, with the light and luxurious feel of Önling No 10, silk mohair. This combination creates a lightweight yet warm hat, perfect for the cooler months.
The Frida Hat is knitted in the round in full brioche on circular needles and is available in three sizes: S, M, and L. The pattern is designed to help you become familiar with full brioche knitting, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced knitters looking to explore this technique.
The decreases at the top are shaped like a star, adding a beautiful finish to the hat. With this pattern, you’ll not only create a lovely hat but also gain a deeper understanding of full brioche knitting, a skill you can apply to many future projects. So grab your knitting needles, and let’s get started on creating your very own Frida Hat!
Frida Brioche Hat is designed for 3rd advent in December, as part of our 2024 advent calendar🎄
We have knitted the hat in our luxurious and softest merino wool Önling No 4 held together with exquisite silk mohair Önling No 10.

ABOUT PATTERNS FROM ÖNLING
In 95% of all kits from Önling, you get a digital pattern and yarn when you buy a kit. Read more about how to get hold of your digital knitting pattern here.
In very few cases, however, we provide a printed pattern rather than a digital one:
- When you buy a kit for ALL designs from PetiteKnit's, you will receive a printed, pattern together with your yarn, as we are unfortunately not allowed to sell Petite Knits' patterns digitally.
- When you buy a kit for a design from selected books (e.g. Helga Isager), you sometimes have to buy the book separately, in cases where the patterns are not released to be sold separately. It will always be clearly described in the product title, with for example "xx kit, excluding pattern", when the pattern is not included.
- All patterns from Isager are delivered as a printed pattern, as we do not have access to sell these digitally. You will receive your pattern along with your yarn shipment.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect.
