The Salt & Honey Slouch is an ultra-cozy, slouchy beanie, featuring a double brim, seed stitch texture, and a playful honeycomb cable panel. Once you get through the folded brim, this hat flies off the needles, making it a fantastic option for gift knitting. Plus, tweed yarn held together with a fluffy mohair silk or silk suri alpaca result in a luxurious fabric you’ll want to wear always!
