Product Description

Overindulge in cables, you know you want to! This beanie is worked from the bottom up. The cables are quite arduous so this is not for a pattern for most beginners. If you are not a fan of cabling with a cable needle, check out the tutorial here to get started on cabling without a cable needle (without dropping stitches): https://youtu.be/AT8lbohPVHA
