Common Cap – 221
Designed by Kate Salomon
Vermont hospitality extends to having extra layers available for winter visitors. We designed this hat with ribbing that will stretch comfortably to fit heads 19” – 24” in circumference. Wear it slouched, as a cuffed watch cap or somewhere in between. Add a fun pop of color, or stripes, to personalize each hat and use up leftover skeins. Knit one for every member of your family and a few extras just in case!

West River Wrap – 220
Designed by Cap Sease
The West River in Guilford CT is a tidal river meandering through marshes before entering Long Island Sound. Its ever-changing ripples and eddies as the tide ebbs and flows inspired this wrap that is a combination of cables and lace.

Designed by Maureen Clark
Top – Down
I just fell for this little pattern stitch, It reminds me of all the little pebbles and shells along the coast. It also adds a hint of laciness and an excellent cling that a sock needs to stay up!
