Certain things will always remain true and timeless; the rhythms of nature, the pull of the tides, our quest for knowledge, and cozy quiet afternoons. Times when we can follow our passions or simply find a tranquil corner to “just be”.

Old Salt is a quickly worked beanie (in as little as 2 HOURS), knit brim-up, in the Gansey tradition. Plenty of texture is found in the time-honored double diamond motif and a clever square crown worked in double moss stitch.
