A hat for all the tiny counterculturists powered by homegrown veggies, backyard eggs, and that sweet family cow. These kids aren’t going back to the land; they’re already there! Wild, wooly gardens and animals on pasture are at the heart of today’s beet generation. It’s a subculture rich in taproots, lard, and winter jam, and with this special hat, our kids can soak up its pleasures with toasty ears and noggins.

Pattern is written for sizes baby(toddler, child).
