Carrots & Radishes is a playful hat pattern that captures the spirit of Victorian artist and author Beatrix Potter: it's a reminder to play, it's embued with a deep love of home and hearth, and it captures the wonder and delight of simple things. A carrot enjoyed by a rabbit. The warm embrace of a mother. The things that nourish us, especially in difficult times.
