The Knit Vulcan Hat Wants You to Live Long and Keep Warm
Deborah Kim — August 23, 2011 — Pop Culture
Etsy seller Becca Stundel has created the cutest cap for Star Trek lovers - the Knit Vulcan Hat. It is seemingly impossible to create winter wear that is both functional and still represents the geek-chic clique. However, this handmade hat is perfect for keeping your ears toasty in those long and dark winter night and an awesome way to transform you into a perfectly logical being.
The Knit Vulcan Hat is one size fits all for adults. I only wish that the designer creates a version for babies and kids -- there is nothing cuter than a baby rockin’ Spock ears. Becca Stundel has collection of other knitted head gear that is available through her Etsy store.
