My new Twisted Love Heart Cable Knit Hat Pattern is a special project filled with love. This hat project is created from my popular Celtic Cable Heart Stitch.

Hat Size: One size fits adult head sizes 19 inches (48 cm) to 24 inches (61 cm) in circumference.

Construction: This knitted hat design begins with a brim in the twisted rib stitch, allowing the hat to snugly fit on the head of most adults. While knitting the hat’s body, it’s fun to see the cable heart design emerge. Finishing up, the crown is beautifully finished in pattern and ready to wear immediately!

Skill Level: Intermediate
Here’s an intermediate-level project for knitters comfortable on circular and double-pointed needles while knitting in the round, cable techniques, and decrease stitches.

Knitting Needles:
• Size 3 US (3.25 mm) 16-inch circular needle
• Size 8 US (5.0 mm) 16-inch circular needle
• Set of 5 double-pointed needles size 8 US (5.0 mm) or size needed to obtain gauge
• Cable Needle

Color-Coded Cable Charts: I have created a color-coded system in both the written and chart patterns to easily discern the 6 different cable stitches at a glance. Knitters have told me they love it and I hope it helps you, too!

Active Time to Complete: 12 to 16 hours
This hat takes a bit longer to finish than most, since you will be paying close attention to the pattern row-by-row while cable stitching throughout. I estimate it takes approximately 12 to 18 hours to complete, depending on your personal knitting speed.
