Kaste Hat Kit

Designed by Joanna Ignatius

A slouchy beanie worked in the round from the brim up, with a knit-and-purl pattern that shifts each round to give the body a fine staggered texture. A ribbed brim sets the fit.

The kit includes one skein of Eco Cashmere in the color of your choice, both needle sizes you will need, the printed pattern, and everything packaged in our Nordic Yarn box.
