Comber is used for a long curling wave of (sea) water that rises high and then breaks into the foam. This brioche hat has been designed to look like waves and foam.
Brioche knitting itself keeps the whole knitting process very interesting and the resultant squishiness is amazing to touch and feel along with the warmth it gives. This hat is worked from the bottom up and the pattern includes 3 sizes for a better fit.
