Directions
CO 72 sts via long tail cast-on onto one US Size 10
DPN. Divide evenly between 4 DPNs (18 sts per
needle).

Join for working in the round. Work in 1x1 rib (k1,


P1) for five rounds.

Change to a US Size 11 circular, and place an EOR


marker at the end of the round. Work rows 1-12 of
the cable pattern one time.

Next round (increase round): *K2, M1, repeat


from * to the end of the round.

Work rows 2-12 of the cable pattern one time, then


work rows 1-6 one time.

Next round, begin the following decrease: *K7, K2tog, K7, SSK, repeat from * to the end
of the round.
Next round: *K6, K2tog, K6, SSK, repeat from * to the end of the round.

Next round: *K8, K2tog, repeat from * to the end of the round.
Next round: *K7, K2tog, repeat from * to the end of the round.

Continue in this manner, decreasing your knit


stitches by one until you perform a series with
the K2tog’s back to back.

6 sts remain. Cut a tail long enough to weave


through the live stitches, pull tight and weave
in the ends.

Block lightly over a plate or pie tin by misting


the hat.
