Knit this cozy, deeply cuffed cap for him. Then borrow it back—if you can! It’s handsome worn turned up for traditional sailor style, and we love to wear it uncuffed and slouchy, too. Worked in a heavy worsted-weight yarn (we love Rowan Felted Tweed Aran), this cap is a quick knit, which is great because you’re bound to be asked for more.
