The Port Jervis Hat incorporates the techniques of mosaic knitting and combines it with cabling on the background of a two color garter stitch. This sounds complicated, but I promise it isn’t as bad as it sounds. You never have to carry two yarns at once and the cables are never bigger than one stitch (this pattern will really fly if you are cabling without a cabling needle).

Be sure to read the pattern notes before you get started, a little preparation ahead of time makes all the difference in tackling this pattern. Just don’t forget - always slip with the yarn in back!! If you have any questions about the pattern don’t hesitate to reach out to me - I’m happy to help!

If you haven’t yet tried a mosaic + cabling pattern before, I’d recommend giving my Skenonto Hat a try first - its a great introduction to the technique.

You’ll need two colors of worsted weight yarn - about 125-150y of each color to be safe.
