Upper West Hat

$7.00

The Upper West Hat is all about this cable motif - it’s both delicate and bold at the same time, and it’s so fun to work. After knitting an entire sweater in it, I really wanted just a little more.

I love how it looks in this pale pink heather, with a deep folded brim and a distinct star-style crown. It gave me a few more days buried in this little motif and I was pretty happy.

Cables are both written and charted.

If substituting, I suggest a worsted weight wool without too much drape. You need a little memory for a nice fit. Colorway should be subtle if there is any vareigation to show off the detail.
