Designed this hat because I wanted a nice warm hat that wouldn’t take very long to knit. It fits so well. I chose a bulky yarn and a good sized needle and it took me 2-3 hours to complete. It involves 2/2 cables and 2/1 cable work. Crown lays flat (don’t like hats that pucker). Edge ribbing is 1/1 and done with the smaller needle. Instructions are in written and chart form.
