Tamias

• Product description

  Destined to be paired with cold-pinked cheeks and dusted with fluffy snowflakes, Tamias is the perfect hat to wear to every outdoor market and park stroll this winter and always. Cheeky one-by-one stripes render this polished pattern both cozy and versatile while allover two-by-two ribbing ensures an ideal fit for every head. Choose between a watchcap style for those blustery days or a jaunty, everyday beanie. Color combinations with low contrast will yield a subtler fabric while stark stripes are formed with dynamically different colorways. Worked circularly from brim to crown, both the cast on and crown decreases are worked in a single color, allowing for carefree enjoyment and no need to alternate colors.
