Simple Pleasures Hat In Line Weight + Tussock
Our Simple Pleasures Hat is surely simple and definitely a pleasure. Super soft, slightly slouchy, and 100% lovely, it’s one of our favorite hats around!
The first kicker here is the wide 2×2 rib cuff. Knit up holding two strands of Line Weight merino, it is thick and cozy right where you want it.
The second kicker is the soft halo that rises above the cuff. A mixture of one strand of Line Weight and one of mohair-silk Tussock, it is a fluffy little cloud that will never weigh you down. Get a skein of both with our Line Weight + Tussock Bundle, available in 16 beautiful color combos!
