Notes

Oooh! LOTS of cables! Very clear chart, but watch out there are 1/2 and 2/2 crosses to move the cables around. My choice of WE for this hat is fine - the pattern has us cast on 120 sts on a size 6 needle - not too many “worsted weight” yarns can be knit at that gauge without creating plywood rather than warm hat fabric.

My hat is a bit small for me, but I think I have a pretty big head. Next time I would knit it with a size 7 needle and a yarn similar to Wool-ease.
