This beanie combines multiple cable and textural elements, resulting in a rustic and cozy beanie worthy of a walk in the redwoods. It pulls down completely over the ears, making it perfect for chilly mornings.

The pattern includes options for adult small, medium, and large hats. I made myself a medium and it does run on the comfy/looser side, so size down if you prefer a more snug fit (the fit was perfect for me; no ribbing lines across this forehead!).

I would say the skill level for this particular hat is intermediate. If you are comfortable with decreasing stitches and using a cable needle, then you will do just fine.

Need a good, stretchy cast on for ribbing? Try Tillybuddy’s method (I’m obsessed).
