Irving

• Product description

  This relaxed-fitting beanie can be worked in three lengths to achieve a short, medium, or longer (slouchier) fit. The ribbed understructure of the cable pattern allows for a stretchy fabric that fits a wide range of adult head sizes. The simple cables flow directly out from the ribbing and then split into a rosette pattern when crown shaping begins. This classic cabled look suits both men and women and is great for all seasons.

  Designer: Jared Flood

  Collection: Fall 2011
