Beautiful old trees, big hills, and a view towards the ocean and the mountains, Blenheim is one of my favorite streets in all of Vancouver.

Our summer season is short, but as beach lovers we often spend quite a bit of time there during the cooler months. This is exactly the hat I want to have with me to pull over my ears when the cool wind blows.

This pattern has been professionally tech edited and test knit. The cable pattern is both written and charted.
