Have you ever traced the lines of something just to see where they go? Wanted to see how all the lines came together? I remember doing this as a child. I liked to trace the lines of just about everything; from leaves to tiles, from furniture to photos of fine art. It opened my eyes to how so many things in this world are interconnected, and sometimes it was just by a single line. The simplest lines can create beauty beyond measure—this is what inspired Coaxial. Embrace the simplicity of a line to create a classic beanie with all-over flowing cables. This hat will fly off the needles and be ready for the cooler seasons.
