Inspired by the long, slanted shadows of Ireland’s waning winter days, the Laitís Hat 
is the accessory-companion to its namesake pullover.

Knit it as a slouchy beanie or 
a stylish beret; the pattern includes instructions for both styles.

Whichever version you prefer, the Laitís Hat is a dramatic, sculptural headpiece that is quick and simple to make even for fledgling cable knitters.
