Something about natures really inspires my knitting. I like to sit by my window and knit enjoying the view. It is really peaceful and relaxing!

Aspen cable hat was also inspired by my daughter. My 5 year old wanted me to knit her a hat. I used DK yarn, but I wanted the brim to be warm for our cold climate. This hat has a brim that is folded over to allow for warm ears. Now that we are in the middle of our winter season, this hat has been perfect for her!

This hat is knit in the round and is seamless. It is an easy cable knit. Good for a beginner or for someone just wanted an easier cable knit.
