The Design

“Warmth to hold off the wind!”

Freshy Ahmadian Millsap designed this versatile beanie for her brother-in-law, an architect in Chicago. It had to look smart for meetings and a little hip for weekends. And had to keep that ‘Windy City’ wind out of his ears. Check, check, and check! The dense tweed stitch pattern takes on a handsome honeycomb look when worn inside out. ‘Cause that happens.

We knit our Cap in wonderful, worsted-weight mYak Medium. Three gently-twisted plies create a bouncy yarn that’s a dream to work with. Warmer than sheep’s wool and as soft cashmere, this exquisite 100% baby yak is hard-wearing, lush, and ethically sourced! No wind will whip through its warmth.
