This super bulky weight hat is a quick knit. It uses a simple, left leaning cable cross to create a rich twisted texture. This pattern is a great project for any beginner cable knitter and can be made with just one skein of yarn.

I have written this pattern to fit the average adult, but I have included notes for modifying the pattern as well.
