Notes

• This hat is worked in two steps, the band is knit flat and sewn to make a loop.

• Stitches are then picked up from one edge of the band and the hat is worked in the round to the top.

• The band uses a provisional cast on and kitchener stitch to create an invisible seam over the cables.

• Visit my tutorial here for tips on how to do a provisional cast on onto a circular needle, how to graft cables and more.
