Peargir lSeventh Wave Hat

Peargirl Knits

The ocean is powerful…In many parts of the world, local folklore predicts that out of a certain number of waves, one will be much larger than the rest ~~”every seventh wave” is one common belief that has entered popular culture through music and literature. There is some scientific basis for these ideas, along with a cultural fascination with the number 7. This hat begins with a wavy rib reminiscent of seaweed being pushed below an undercurrent of small waves, with 6 larger waves breaking the surface above.
