Sometimes, in life and in knitting, what you need is a quick, squishy, classic cabled ski hat. Make this one in just a couple of hours and get a warm head and a great deal of knitting satisfaction.

One size will stretch to fit all but the most unusually sized adult and teen heads.

A note on yarn: I find that this yarn behaves a little more like a bulky (5) than a super bulky (6).
