I love the fabric created by ribbing paired with squishy cables. Also, the marled look created by holding two strands together provides endless options. The intricate cable pattern is bold enough to stand out among the sea of vertical lines. Holding fingering weight double allows the hat to maintain it’s shape and adds some warmth to the 90% cotton yarn. With this much detail you’ll never be bored while knitting this.

Details: The hat starts with a rolled brim and transitions smoothly from a simple ribbing to a ribbing and cable combination. As designed, this hat should be worn as a close fitting beanie to keep your head and ears warm. It has plenty of stretch. Being knit from the brim up makes it easily customizable for some slouch. This hat is written in two sizes but the ribbed nature provides stretch and will hug different head sizes.
