The Titfer
Here we give you TBk’s ‘London’ hat, because as any Cockney (or, frankly, most Brits) know, a Titfer is a hat. Tit-for-tat = hat in Cockney rhyming slang.
The Titfer has classic lines and classic cables, plus the all-important ridiculously-sized pompom that is so important this Winter in the East End. No sewing involved, other than darning in ends and attaching your pompom.
