This pattern was designed by Maddy - after purchasing, you should have the option at checkout to add the pattern to your Ravelry library. . The simple cables on this hat resemble leaves, the slipped stitches forming the leaf stem. The cables wind upward toward the crown, ending in gentle decreases and giving a snug, cozy fit. A simple 8-row repeat makes this a versatile knit, easily adjustable to different lengths. . This hat is worked from the bottom up, starting at the brim and working upward toward the crown of the head. The brim is worked in a simple 2x2 ribbing, which flows effortlessly into the charted cables that form the leaves. . I recommend using a non-superwash wool for this hat, it will give a beautifully sturdy fabric with a buttery soft texture. It was designed in our Methodical Worsted base, and one skein should be enough to make this hat in any size! .
