About:

Ceretic is a simple yet fun hat to knit, that features a dazzling little cable on the side, perfectly inserted in the brim and the rest of the hat with a spotless crown shaping.

This hat solve 2 of my (many) knitting obsessions: a seamless transition between brim and hat body design and a spotless crown shaping decrease that features a invisible decreased cable.

The little things that make knitting a hat a pleasure :)

Treat yourself to a very good Aran yarn: life is too short to knit with bad yarn!

As you need less than 60 g of yarn for the bigger version (and with 100 g of yarn you can easily make the 2 sizes of the hat), choose carefully: your head deserve warm and should be pleased :)
