Inspired by the excitement & bright lights of a fun and lively city at night!
The City Lights hat features a slip stitch pattern design utilizing a combination of two contrasting color yarns - a solid with a speckle or variegated, to create an interesting texture and color play.

This hat is designed to fit as a beanie with just a little bit of slouch.
