As I gave a class on this pattern I also started a hat for Tony (he can always use a good warm hat!).

9.13. I was a little surprised by the cable cast-on (not stretchy), but did it anyway. I did the alternating cable cast on to account for the ribbing. Jennifer who took the class opted for the long-tail cast-on (quicker and a little more stretchy).

Looks good on both of us!
