A tiny sandpiper runs along the stormy shore leaving a trail of little footprints. It’s November and the little bird is a common sight among the receding waves. This beanie features a lace section that mimics the appearance of the sandpiper’s footprints. Worked using fingering weight yarn held double, it is light enough for Florida winters, while the solid brim will keep the wind off your ears.

The Piper Prints Beanie is designed using the November 2020 Yarn Journey Club Colorways by Serendipitous Wool Co. & Birch Hollow Fibers.
