Laika
This textured beanie hat looks like it could have been worn by Soviet cosmonauts under their helmets. Triangular motifs of double moss stitch bordered by yarn overs provide a sense of vertical motion, as if from a rocket ship blasting off. It is named in honor of the first female ever to orbit the Earth.
