If you’re a fan of super chunky yarn and love your cables, you’re going to love this pattern. The subtle addition of the two cable stripes give the hat a unique style and the reverse stocking stitch shows off the ‘wrong side’ of the knitted fabric to enhance those stripes going from the brim to top of crown.

This is a quick knit for when you’re watching Netflix, or need to finish up some gifts at the last minute. Using just one ball of yarn, it’s a great option for creating a budget item and maybe using up some of your yarn stash. (those odd balls need some lovin’!)

Who is this for?

This pattern is ideal for you if you can already knit, the pattern is easy to read and it’s such a practical hat too. It’s comfortable and warm and always gets compliments. With a couple of featured cables on the front side of the hat and the reverse stocking stitch, it’s understated and individual.
