With lush cables and a bit of slouch, this cozy hat is perfect for a day of running errands in town, having a coffee at your favourite coffee house, or just for walking in a winter wonderland!

When I was designing the Whitecourt hat for my toddler I KNEW I had to have one in my size, with a few modifications of course (more cables and no earflaps)!

The Hinton hat features a medallion cable and slip stitch detail that is easily memorized. This hat knits up quickly with just one skein of worsted yarn (gotta love using up those lonely skeins in your stash!)
