Transom

Named for the transom, the sturdy, flat surface forming the stern of a boat, this hat carries the same sense of balance and simplicity in its design.

Designed by Jordan Prouty, knit in Hawk, our alpaca–merino tweed, Transom is a beginner-friendly project worked in the round from brim to crown. It begins with a long section of ribbing for a cozy, fold-over brim, followed by smooth stockinette stripes that sail easily off the needles.
