The Gloaming Beanie was designed as an easy cable knit that works up quickly and without too much difficulty. I designed this beanie with a simple yet effective cabling to produce a textured effect and yield a cosy Winter hat for my son to go to school in. I hope this becomes a go-to pattern for your gifting needs!
