This cable hat is quick to knit, so soft and looks great with a faux fur pom pom. It uses almost exactly 1 skein of the Fibre Co.’s Tundra.

There are instructions for two sizes, a smaller beanie and a slightly longer slouch hat.

Directions include both written instructions and charts for each step required in the construction of the hat. The written and charting instructions are next to each other, to help provide clarity and to prevent flipping back and forth between pages while knitting. Written instructions for how to make your own faux fur pom pom are included at the end of the pattern.

1 skein Tundra from The Fibre Co. -109 yards, 120 meters/100 g.
