Flaneur, designed in collaboration with Crow and Crescent Yarn, is named after my favorite French word. It denotes a person of leisure who enjoys wandering the streets, soaking in the beauty of their surroundings and contemplating the meaning of life.

If you’ve been wondering whether you can successfully knit a beret, fear not! Flaneur is knit from the brim to the crown, just like other hats. I’ve thrown in some unique shaping, funky faux cables for texture (with no extra fiddly needles required), and the quintessential stem at the very top!
