Nyrikki is the Finnish deity of the hunt and cattle, and son of Tapio and Mielikki.
Worked in 1 x 1 ribbing with smooth well-planned decreases, two options to the crown, this tubular cast-on hat is very stretchy and flexible, thus will be comfortable for all occasions.
In regulation Blaze Orange, it makes a great gift for the hunter in your life. Of course, it can be knit in whatever color you desire.
