I was expecting a simple beanie. It's the best beanie I've seen. 100% wool so no plastics; there is a change in stitch where the ribbed cuff transitions so you always have the correct amount folded up. The knit is chunky, perfect. Fit is also great and without those usual 4 seams on the head. It's really a good beanie. I am fast becoming a big fan of Cactus Outdoor.
