This intricate nature-inspired fisherman’s style toque / beanie showcases a large stitch panel that echoes the silhouette of the common yarrow plant. Bobbles represent small clusters of blooms, cables create stout stems, and a seed stitch filler adds variety. The hat also includes a folded cuff for warmth and to keep the hat snug. Keep your head cozy through winter while you wait for these dainty flowers to pop up in spring :)
