subway tiles hat
Sunday, January 1, 2012 at 3:38AM 
Stripes, texture and slipped stitches come together in this sweet, lightweight hat. A great transitional piece, this is knit in a wool/silk blend, creating a nice slouchy hat perfect for spring and fall. Knit it in neutrals for a subdued look, or make it feisty with a punchy color combination.
