Treefolds
Enjoy texture, both quiet and luxurious, with the Treefolds Hat. Allover cables developed as a modern take on traditional Tree of Life cable patterns is the highlighting feature of this stately hat. Trees abstracted into diamonds are created by zigzagging cable panels placed next to each other in mirroring directions. Blending seamlessly with these cable crosses are fully-fashioned double decreases at the crown, which result in a uniquely geometric design at the top of the hat. In fingering-weight Peerie, these anfractuous cables render crisply and remain spritely, substantial, and comfortable to wear on many an adventure.
This hat is worked circularly from the bottom up. The textured motif is worked from charts only; directional cable crosses have been color-coded for ease of reading. Options are given for a single-layer brim or a double-layer folded brim.
