Fleurette

You can call this hat a delicious bouquet of various cables and lace. It is knit in the round from brim to crown. The wide band of cabled rib allows for a snug fit. The main pattern resembles a flower made of cables which effortlessly transitions into more familiar cables which later taper at the crown.

Choose between the two versions: Beanie and a Slouch.
