Aeolian Hat - a knitting pattern

The winds swirl and sweep across the sands of the deserts, moving and lifting grains of sand, creating and transforming the landscape. These waves and ripples are created not by water but by wind. As you walk across this arid place you can feel the warmth of the wind upon your face and turn to see all evidence of your steps be erased. The wonder of it - to know that each day the winds and sand will together create a new work of art.
