Hand knit and felted with 100% wool by our own staff knitters, our Men's traditional Scot bonnet is made from an authentic pattern used for hundreds of years. Blackthistle Design has its own special collection of knits based on both historical and new patterns and are pleased to say this seems to still be a number one request. Bonnets are shaped by hand and dried, while we do offer some to stock, for best fit wait a week or two and let us do one bespoke to your specific colour and head size. It will be stiff at first, but the more you wear it, the more it will become your favourite headgear. Watch as we add more and more colour selections and as always, if you do not see it, just give us a call or message us CUSTOM COLOUR ? Just indicate size and select "Natural", then put your colour choice in a cart message when you check out and we will be happy to meet your needs. Please note some colours may differ in cost depending upon whether we have stock yarn or if it is a custom dyed historical colour. This includes our Jacobite Blue and our Blaze orange for hunting as an example. There may be others. As well, always..please remember the colour you view may or may not be accurate depending upon your device settings. If uncertain, you may always request a yarn sample. ** When ordering a child's size, please put age of child in the customer notes in the cart.
