Hand Crochet Bucket Hat - Cream/Royal-Baby-Grey

For this season Nicholas Daley explores the legacy of Caribbean music legend and civil rights activist Harry Belafonte. Best know for his record-breaking "Calypso" – the first LP to sell over 1 million copies within a year – Belafonte is a civil rights activist, political activist and humanitarian. With this inspiration, Nicholas Daley delves into the iconic Calypso style which Belafonte's music exemplified.

This knitted hat is crochet by hand in the UK. The mix of synthetic and natural fibres adds a chunky texture that's familiar to anyone who's had a grandmother or aunty who would break-out the knitting needles when Christmas time came. The shape is nice and tall, allowing you to get plenty of loftiness if you so require.
