Product Details

This hat is fast, chunky fun! Knitting in the round allows the use of 10 stitch, every 5 row cables without the confusion of cabling wrong side rows. The large, cabled braids create a delicious texture and a warm, cozy feel. The ribbing transitions smoothly to the braiding, which continues throughout the crown, giving a tapering effect.

Very Stretchy; fits most adults.

Yarn: DK weight.

Yardage: 130 yards (119 m).

Shown in: Carlton Yarns Merino Supreme, color 22. 100% extra fine merino superwash. 135 yds (124 m) per 50g skein. This pattern only took me one skein, but I only had 5 yards left. Cautious knitters may like to buy a second skein, just in case.

Needles: US size 6 (4.0 mm) 16 in (40.5 cm) circular needle, set of US size 6 (4.0 mm) dpns.

Notions: cable needle, locking stitch marker, tapestry needle.

Fits: Most adults. The stretchiness of the cables means this hat fits heads with a circumference of 17-23 in (43-58.5 cm). The finished, stretched height is 7.5 in (19
