Cloudberry
A fancy yet functional hat for all seasons that uses large cables to create a soft, rippled texture inspired by the Newfoundland cloudberry, AKA the bakeapple. Sizes range from newborn to adult, making it easy to create matching hats for the whole crew. The hat uses a DK weight yarn to make it warm enough to withstand winter, but light enough for fall and spring.
