The Ondas Hat is a fun and fast-growing pattern with an interesting cable stitch, worked in the round from brim to crown. The pattern comes in several sizes to fit the whole family and the classic cable design looks good on everyone. Even though the number of cables may look intimidating at first glance, there are actually only a few rounds where cables are worked.
