Traveling Cable Set: Hat and Scarf
Bold, simple cables are what the Traveling Cable Hat and Scarf Set are all about! If you are a newer cable knitter, this pattern graduates knitters from basic cable columns to moving simple cables across a purl background. Cables are fun and easy to knit in a chunky gauge and a brightly coloured yarn like Cascade Pacific Chunky!
Cable instructions are given in charts with instructions on how to interpret them. The scarf is an easy flat knit, while the hat is a bit spicier, knit in the round with a decoratively decreased cabled crown. Punctuate your Traveling Cable Hat with a giant pom-pom for an extra-cosy look!
