Woohoo! I’ve hit pattern number 200!

Join this celebration of a milestone with your own Woohoo Pompom Hat – a quirky, fun knit that’s quick and satisfying.

Basic cable techniques, with a little unexpected curve thrown in, keep your knitting (and your life) exciting and interesting. Knit this hat seamlessly in the round, beginning with the ribbed band, which then flows right into the cable design.

The hat finishes with a slight slouch, a gently shaped crown, and a fluffy pompom. One size easily fits teenagers to adults and only uses two balls of the Aran-weight yarn shown here or one hank of Malabrigo Worsted.

Approx 17 ½“ 44.5 cm around bottom opening, unstretched; 9 ½” 24 cm height.

Gauge:
 18 sts = 3 ½“ 9 cm and 22 rnds = approx 4” 10 cm in Braid Cable st patt, blocked but not stretched
