Cloud’s Rest Hat is a slightly slouchy beanie featuring a delightful cable and texture mix. Bulky weight yarn allows you to knit up a new hat to chase off the chill in just an evening or two of knitting, and the woolen spun structure makes sure this cozy hat never feels heavy. Even when adding the optional pom pom to your project, all 3 sizes use less than a skein of yarn!

This pattern requires knowledge of basic cables, decreasing, and working in the round. All stitch patterns are fully written and fully charted so you can work with your preferred method.
