From the lighthouses of Maine to the pine forests of Washington and the wheat fields of Kansas – knit unique beanies inspired by the beauty of the natural treasures, state symbols, and distinctive landmarks of each state in the union.

Whether it’s a corn field in Iowa, the manatees of Florida, or the buckeye that shows up on absolutely everything in Ohio, each of the fifty states has manmade and natural landmarks, symbols, and traditions that make it unique. Now you can capture the history and wonders of America with original beanie patterns created by celebrated knitting designer Nancy Bates.
