This semi-slouchy beanie has a snug fit around the head and a little “slouch” at the back - and features all-over texture with pixelated details in three contrasting colors. The Pixel Beanie knits up in no time with texture that is simple to work and easy to remember. Choose your favorite team colors or go classic with our winning formula: one light neutral, one dark neutral, and one pop color.
