This cozy hat is perfect for sitting around the fire or enjoying time in nature. Featuring rich, sumptuous cables and lace, the design forms large, intricate leaves, adding a touch of elegance to its warmth.

The hat is knit in the round, starting from the bottom up, with a ribbed brim that begins with a long-tail cast-on.

The pattern includes fully written instructions as well as a chart for the stitch design, making it accessible for knitters of all preferences.

Techniques: working in the round, working in small circumferences, cables, lace, and knit increases and decreases.
