Autumn is all about cosy knits and autumn leaves, this cable knit hat gives a soft, warm, and stretchy hat with a beautiful, intricate cable design. Pom-poms are all the rage and add a great flare to your project, alternatively this hat works well on its own as a slouchy beanie.

This hat is an adult size to fit a head circumference between 20” - 23” (50cm - 58cm). I have highlighted in the pattern instructions where you can alter the length and / or width of the hat. This pattern uses knit, purl, and cable stitches and is knit in the round.

What you will need:

• 1 x 5mm, 40cm circular needles

• 1 x 6mm, 40cm circular needles

• 1 x set of 6mm double pointed needles

• 50g - 100g chunky wool

• 1 x pompom of your choice

• Crochet hook / large blunt needle for weaving in the ends

• if you chose to increases the size of the hat you will need to increase the amount of wool accordingly
