This cabled helmet was designed for the #6166 Sublime Baby Cashmere Merino Silk DK brochure by Sirdar. The textured hat is knitted in one piece from the bottom of the head, then worked up to the top. Garter stitches are then picked up at the bottom and continued with each ear flap before seaming. Twisted cords add the final touch.

This hat is sold together with its matching pullover sweater in a single brochure.
