In the coastal zone, small waves ebb and flow, catching small rocks and pulling them back into the sea. In this tuque, you’ll find eddies of cables, and small waves of lace, connected with lines of garter stitch surf. Designed to reflect the beauty of the Sooke Basin where I grew up, this hat is a ‘choose your own adventure’.

Choose all 3 motifs or make a hat of just cables, lace or ribbing. 4 hats, one pattern. And with an optional rolled brim, it’s perfect for a cool stroll by the sea shore. It’s 4 hats in one, designed to meet your skill level where it’s at!**
