Long summer days at the beach for my family don’t often end until the sun has gone down and the ghost crabs are coming out. By the time we’re packing up to go, the once-warm day has transitioned into a rather chilly evening and we’re wrapping the kids in towels and blankets. The Coastal Local baby hat is a perfect little thing to throw into your bag and pull out as it gets chilly. Whales and waves bring to mind memories of the shore, and its straightforward construction makes it a relatively simple knit.
