This pattern is my way of saying,
“The badass in me, salutes the badass in you.”
Everyone has some badassery in them. Especially after living through 2020.
For some, it appears like a shooting star - infrequent, but awe-inspiring nonetheless.
For others, it seeps out of their pores.
Whatever your B.A. level, this beanie is here to help you say loud and proud, “I. AM. A. BADASS.”
