Symbolism
Crossroads Daze symbolizes unexpected events that yield new opportunities that arise from decisions made.

Highlights
Crossroads Daze is knit in the round starting at the Brim with a longtail cast-on. The ribbed Brim uses worsted weight yarn and the hat body is constructed by holding fingering with two strands of lace weight. The hat design includes cables that meander to reveal a starfish shape upon the crown. The hat will fit most teens and adults.
