The knot at the top of the hat can be tied, as shown in the picture, or untied to create two jester "horns." This style hat is popular with both men and women.
100% woolen hat is handknit in County Kilkenny Ireland using tweed wool from County Donegal's Kilcarra Wool.
During the wool spinning process, many flecks of colors are also woven into the yarn, giving the wool its distinctive Donegal tweed look.
