Cable & Rib Hat
The first time you knit a cable, make it a meditative one. Easy cables flow from the simple ribbed brim, running the length of the hat and neatly into the crown. Instructions are included for those of you ready to work in the round and for those who prefer to work flat and then seam. The cables are charted and full written instructions are also provided. Wear with a little slouch or the brim folded up for a snugger, cosier fit. Whether you choose to add a pompom or not is your call.
