A quick and easy unisex cabled hat pattern, with sizes to fit the entire family!
Pattern includes 3 sizes - small (child), medium (teen) and large (adult).
Required materials include 100 - 200 yards of light worsted weight yarn.
Samples were knit using Tosh DK and Berroco Vintage Worsted.
Pattern is knit in the round - starting with ribbing at the bottom edge. You can adjust the length of ribbing, depending on whether you want to wear the brim folded up or not.
The body is worked in an easy cable and ribbed pattern. Instructions are clearly written out.
Ribbed fabric has a lot of stretch to it, and hats will fit a variety of head sizes.
Recommended gauge is 5 stitches per inch in stockinette stitch, on larger needles.

Recommended needles:
16” circular, size 5 (for ribbing); 16” circular, size 7 (for body); size 7 double pointed needles for top shaping.

Imagine how great your friends and family will look in these cabled hats this winter!
