INSPIRATION
When Andrea from By Hand magazine approached me to design a hat for their first retreat, my first instinct was to design something cable-y with lots of squish and texture - the retreat took place on Bainbridge island in WA state and wet PNW fall calls for comfort knits, hence this hat was born! The hat features an interesting and easy to work cable panel and some simple knit purl rib for the win!:) I think you will enjoy wearing it just as much as knitting it!
