Northstowe Beanie Hat
Comfortable, easy-to-wear and with a rugged outdoor look, the Northstowe Beanie Hat will keep him warm as the cold weather draws closer. The hat features strong textural details, with wide ribs intersected by garter stitch bands.
The pattern uses two strands of a DK yarn held together to give a chill-beating finish and can be worked in a fashion-forward graphite colour or a rich blue to team with jeans.
