DESCRIPTION
Mind Hat is the second of the Disparate Parts Collection. With two versions, this hat seeks to celebrate textured and colorwork patterns. Through a design that tests your thought, this hat centers around the complexity of the mind.

This collection will include four designs including a hat, cowl, shawl, and pullover. Each is inspired by tracks off the incomparable Roxy Coss’ latest album Disparate Parts (2022).
