Description:
You don’t have to be an expert knitter to make this stylish light-weight gender-neutral cable beanie with textured panels, worked in the round on circular needles. Using only knit, purl, and front cable stitches, this beanie knits up surprisingly quickly in worsted weight yarn because of its rhythmic and repetitive knit. It’s a perfect candidate for market prep! It’s fast and with it’s traditional cables and single or folded brim options (with a matching cowl too), well, it’s just too much handknit goodness to resist!

Pattern is written in US terms and includes chart and tips along with clear written instructions. Can be worn with or without a pompom because of the careful attention to detail in the crown, providing something for everyone regardless of gender.

One size fits most teen-adults. Beanie fits approximately 18-22” head circumference.

Skill level:
Moderately easy pattern suitable for knitters with only a little experience. Results in a beautiful hat and matching cowl with great texture, stitch definition and a stunning crown that looks more complicated than it really is. No pompom required!
