Description:
You don’t have to be an expert knitter to make this stylish basic cable beanie with textured variation, worked in the round on circular needles. One size fits most adult/teens but pattern is easily adapted to different sizes by going up or down a needle size or by adding/subtracting 12-stitch repeats. Using only knit, purl, front and back cable stitches, this beanie knits up quickly, especially with bulky yarn, so it’s a perfect candidate for market prep, not to mention, it results in the classic, traditional, squishy cable hat that is so popular with just about everyone!

Pattern is written in US terms and, while written for light bulky weight yarn, also includes tips to modify instructions for worsted and bulky weight, giving you three looks for one. A bulky weight hat only takes 2-3 hours, just about guaranteeing you will want to make more than one! And, beanie even looks great without a pompom because of the careful detail in the crown, providing something for everyone! Share your creations with family and friends. It makes the perfect gift, though, don’t forget to make one for yourself too!

One size fits most teen-adults. Beanie fits approximately 18-22” head circumference.

Skill level:
Moderately easy pattern that you make yourself. Suitable for knitters with only a little experience, this pattern results in a beautiful hat with a stunning crown that looks more complicated than it really is. No pompom required!

Materials You Will Need:
Size 6mm/US 10 or 6.5mm/US 10.5 and 8mm/US 11 Circular Knitting Needles (CN) with 16” cord, 8mm/US 11 double point needles for crown decrease. Approximately 140 yards worsted, 110 yards of light bulky, and 90 yards for bulky weight yarn.
