Orla is an Irish name meaning “golden princess.” This pattern came about because a friend, a self-proclaimed princess, wanted to learn how to knit cables. I came up with this super-easy, 6-stitch cable that wends its way up the hat and resembles embellishments found in medieval crowns. This pattern needs a squishy, worsted-spun yarn with a good ply to make the cables pop. Criticalsheep D10 is a scrumptious yarn with beautiful stitch definition and bounce, and it really makes the cables shine!
