Red Hook
The trademark accessory of H+W—the classic cabled beanie. Red Hook by co-founder Meghan Babin is a densely cabled beanie made to block the coldest winter winds. Featuring antler and braided cables worked in rapid succession for a toasty textural fabric ideal for chilly dog walks, winter hikes, and daily errands. Made from the bottom up from an optional tubular cast on, the cables flow out of the 1x1 folded rib brim and cleverly decrease away into the crown.

One size; 15.75” / 40 cm finished circumference (unstretched); 8.5” / 21.5 cm finished height, brim folded; 10.75” / 27.5 cm finished height, brim unfolded. Stretches to fit a 20-23” / 51-58.5 cm circumference.
