Tsov is the Armenian word for sea- and this hat is my take on a classic cabled fisherman’s hat for my ocean-loving husband who is of Armenian descent. This hat features a high, folded brim which you can fold to your preference. The deep ribbing and elastic cast on also means hat fits most adult heads. 2 lengths are included, for a taller, slouchy fit (as pictured) or a closer fit.

I used ultra soft worsted weight Ovis Merino Får from Woolfolk for this hat, perfect for those who are very sensitive to wool’s itchiness.
