Notes

Tubular cast-on as in the sample. Let’s see what happens!

So I ran out of Swish worsted with 8-9 decrease rounds left. But I found some leftover Stroll (fingering weight) in a very similar colorway and held it double to finish up the crown. You can tell if you look at it directly, but the giant pompom in Cascade 220 (charcoal? iunno) mostly covers it up and distracts from the change.

Mods:

  • Tubular cast-on as in the sample knit
  • Purl background in the cable sections; I like my cables to pop
  • Omitted the yos in the middle of the cable section on the second chart repeat
  • Crown knit in fingering held double instead of worsted cuz I ran out :(
