Lavender Land Beanie & Cowl

The Lavender Land Beanie and Cowl features a cable pattern of my own design! In reversed rows of these tiny wavy patterns, the cable design mimics lavender blooms. It is mesmerizing and elegant. The hat fits as an extended cap but can be adjusted for a form fit to the head or made as a slouchy hat! A matching stove pipe cowl keeps the neck and face warm on cooler spring mornings.
