The Mermaid's Keeper
A simple and quick knit, creates this handsome seaworthy cap. Sizes included are for a young man or grown man in your life. Though you may be creating it for someone else, you may fall in love with it once tried on! So, you may need to plan for making two. The button accent is a great way to dip into the stash of sentimental buttons that have been handed down or even a pin of some sort!
