Estelle Eco Andean yarn suits the latrine hat pattern Barbara Kelly-Landry developed in a number of ways. Like the original, it is a two-ply wool yarn, and it also has a worsted-spun quality and loft that is similar to handspun. After trying a number of yarns, she found it to be the best commercial yarn option to re-create the look and feel of the original hat.
Over the years Barbara has made a number of latrine hats for the costume department at the Fortress of Louisbourg. Several of the male interpreters wear their hats on a daily basis as part of their costume. Knit your own hat with this exclusive download.
