~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Sky is a snug, cabled hat fitting for both sexes. Sky can be adjusted in length to create a standard cap or a slight slouch. Knitted in the round, the “tied” cable pattern is simple and addictive, making this a quick knit to keep your noggin warm and fashionable.

The cable pattern is both written and charted.
