50% of all proceeds from this and all of my patterns will be donated to Doctors without Borders for disaster relief during March.

Worked entirely flat, this hat uses a unique three part seamless construction to create the cabled earflap band that travels all the way over the head. The complex cable pattern keeps this bulky hat interesting for even the most experienced of knitters, while short row shaping creates an adorably fitted look, with options for both short and long hair. Tidy details like I-cord edges and braided tassels on the earflaps give the hat a clean, polished feel.

Best of all, this hat works up quickly in an inexpensive, machine washable yarn, making it the perfect knit for holiday gifts.
