Alhambra Hat is a lovely, slightly slouchy hat that comes in two sizes. The combination of cables and bobbles gives it a beautiful texture. It is knit in the round, seamlessly, bottom-up. This pattern offers both charted and written instructions.
The name of this pattern was chosen by my husband: when he first saw the sample of this hat, he said it remained him of the famous palace in Granada, Spain.
