Unisex hat and cowl set for an active lifestyle. Wear it running around town or while on your run/walk. Designed to add a fashionable flair while providing a snug comfortable fit. Using slip stitches to create texture in the body and fading from one color to the next, this knit will also race off your needles. Can be made to look sporty with the striping in the brim and band or leave it out and let the fading be the star of this set. Have fun choosing colors for a bold look or subtle colors for more fade flow.
