Stash dive for some DK weight yarns to knit up the Chasing Buffaloes Hat and learn [Two Pass Woven Knitting](https://www.ravelry.com/bundles/two-pass-woven-knitting). You will be amazed at how quickly you memorize the stitch pattern and create colourwork without counting stitches! The cables, gracefully emerging from the ribs in the brim, help establish the structure of the woven motif. This makes your knitting easier to read as you apply the technique. This pattern is supported by the [Chasing Buffaloes Tutorials](https://marywmartinknits.com/chasing-buffaloes/). Use the skills to knit Chasing Buffaloes [Scarf]() or [Wrap](). The same stitch pattern creates surprisingly different motifs. Look for yarns with a round construction to make your cables pop. Multi-ply yarns with a tight twist are great for cablework. +[Chasing Buffaloes Hat](https://youtu.be/eWT7K_iSXSk) *Yarn:* 2 colours of DK weight yarn *Yarn Usage:* MC – 100 (110, 120) yd/ 91 (100, 110) m; CC – 60 (70, 85) yd/ 55 (64, 78) m. *Gauge:* 23 sts/ 32 rows to 4 in/ 10 cm in stocking stitch *Needles:* 3.5 mm/ US #4 & 4 mm/ US #6; 16 in/ 40 cm circular needles & needles in the larger size for small circumference knitting *Notions:* tapestry needle, 7 (8, 9) stitch markers & 1 end-of round-marker. **Recommended Yarn:** Miss Babs Yowza 225 g/ 560 yd (8 oz/ 512 m); Dragon Claw (MC - green), McHales (CC - blue); 1 skein each Note: 1 skein of each colour made 1 scarf & 2 hats Resources: [Chasing Buffaloes Tutorials](https://marywmartinknits.com/chasing-buffaloes/) *Sizes:* S (M, L) to fit head circumference 20 (23, 26) in/ 51 (58, 66) cm *Finished Hat Circumference:* 18 (21, 24) in/ 46 (53, 61) cm *Finished Hat Height:* 7.5 (8.5, 9) in/ 19 (21, 23) cm; adjustable Ways to learn about my designs: - Visit [MaryWMartinKnits.com](https://marywmartinknits.com) - [subscribe to my newsletter](https://marywmartinknits.myflodesk.com/) and receive a free pattern too, - [join me in my Ravelry group](https://www.ravelry.com/groups/mary-w-martin-knits) for discussion of my patterns, - [join the earburn list](https://www.ravelry.com/discuss/mary-w-martin-knits/4046106/1-25#1) for notifications of pattern releases and test knits.
