I’ve already created a couple of designs with textures resembling cables, but this time the cables are genuine and worked with a cable needle.

This design includes a matching beanie available as a separate Ravelry pattern, it features two cable styles and two brim options for the beanie, offering an excellent opportunity to express your knitting creativity. That’s why I named this design the **Express Yourself Cowl and Headband**.
