Kayenta Hat
Kayenta Hat is inspired by the spectacular landscape of Arizona’s desert. The Kayenta Formation is a reddish-brown geologic layer of sandstone that appears mostly in the northern part of the state’s national parks. The stones form striking spire-like vertical cliffs reaching up 2,000 ft or more – a natural beauty not to be missed!
The hat is worked in the round from the bottom up.
