The Design

“Enduring tradition and all-weather style.”

We love the tradition and history of ganseys—warm, durable, supple garments originally developed to protect seafarers from the cold and sea spray! This cute pillbox hat, with a flat circular top, pays tribute to that beloved sweater. We’ve provided two traditional gansey pattern charts—”Nautical Flags” and “Tree Line”, but you can also create your own!

Shown in Isager Jensen

We chose Isager Jensen, a traditional woolly wool, for our Seaworthy Gansey Caps. Inspired by the 1960s yarn creations of knitwear designer Åse Lund Jensen, this DK-weight yarn echoes Scandinavian knitting traditions. Wool is responsibly sourced from New Zealand and from European Gotland sheep and spun in Denmark into a classic, 3-yarn with a firm, even spin. Jensen is an excellent choice for textured knits, providing crisp stitch definition
