I love cable patterns, but not the expanse of reverse stockinette stitch that is sometimes present, so I designed this easy hat that features a simple cable and three stitch stockinette column. The pattern is a nine stitch repeat, increasing or decreasing by 9 stitches to adjust the size will not affect the instructions.Feel free to use this pattern to knit for charity, family, friends or yourself. It is a simple pattern that can also be used to teach cabling to students in your knitting class.
