Twisted Kelp Hat
This hat was inspired by the beautiful Kapiti coast landscape where I live in New Zealand and features a simple cable panel that reflects the twisted kelp that grows here.
Worked in the round from the brim upwards the cable is a mirror image of itself and is quick and easy to memorise. Both charted and written instructions are included.
