The Cullercoats Cap is a unisex hat with a classic look and construction. This hat is worked in the round from the bottom up and features the double rib stitch pattern and a combination of garter stitch and hen’s claw stitch pattern. Top it off with an optional pom-pom for a bit of fun! Be sure to pick a yarn that will highlight those beautiful textured stitches, like Quince & Co.’s Owl yarn.
