These are the cutest examples of wearable art to come out of Boston! These 100% cotton hats are deliciously innovative creations by Boston Beanie. The creator of these hats is actually a children’s librarian, which I find quite suiting when looking at these fantastic hats.

The pesticide-free and organic cotton used on these little beanies is knitted together to create delicious looking watermelon, pumpkin and apple hats. There is even one with bunny ears!

Take a look at the gallery above for a little wearable whimsy!
