A fitted cap with filigree twisted stitch panels that meet at the top. Lofty Kumara makes the stitch pattern pop and has plenty of bounce – perfect for a cap that will snugly fit heads of many sizes.

Kumara is a blend of extrafine Merino and baby camel hair. Merino is a warm and buoyant fiber that takes dyes beautifully; camel is a super soft fiber that, because of its short staple length, adds a lovely halo. Kumara’s six twisted plies yield great stitch definition.
