I taught myself how to cable without a cable needle for this hat. It was so much easier than using a cable needle since this entire hat is made up of little 1x1 cables.
I highly recommend this pattern for a quick and yet satisfying knit!
Isn't cabling without a needle great??? I used to think eh a cable needle is easy enough, but no it really is easier to ditch that little guy. I love the color of the yarn.
ReplyDeleteIt looks great on you! Fabulous color too!

That is a great pattern and I agree with everyone else that it looks fantastic on you. BUT, your gorgeous fingerless glove pattern would look great on me and several other people I know. No pressure though. ;-)
ReplyDeleteIt looks great! I love the depth of the cables.
ReplyDeleteJody,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful hat!
I have that one on my distant wish list. I haven't had the balls to add it to my actual list, as that list is too long already. I also love the hat you made for John.
THANK YOU for all your terrific Philadelphia information! It sounds like such a great city. I'm giddy.
I'll definitely explore some of your suggested spots.

I am not a hat girl cause it musses up the hair but that hat is gorgeous and I may just have to give it a try!!! I have never done cables without a needle, another reason to try it. It is such a pretty pattern and I love the color!!
