The Cloud Hat is a staple pattern here at The Lamb & Kid! Knit bottom up in the round, this hat features a ribbed brim that is folded over when worn. Our original version was designed in The Lamb & Kid Big Birdie, which creates a fluffy and feminine cloud-like fabric, hence the name! Version 2 of The Cloud Hat includes an additional size for your littlest family and friends, which we knit in our Fletcher Aran base, a non-superwash organic merino that suits the whole family!
