The Winter Tale Beanie

cozy, textured cable beanie worked in the round with an all over cable design and ribbed brim. Choose between a simple single brim or a deeper double brim for extra warmth. Size: This pattern is written for one adult size and uses a 96 stitch cast on. The finished hat is designed to have a comfortable, stretchy fit. For the brim, you can customize the length. Single brim: 12 rounds Larger double brim: 25 rounds or your desired length Gauge 19 stitches × 26 rounds = 4” (10 cm) in the cable pattern using US 9 (5.5 mm) needles, lightly blocked. Gauge can vary depending on your yarn and knitting style, so I recommend making a small swatch before starting. Materials Worsted weight yarn, approximately 200 yards (183 m) US 6 (4 mm) 16” circular needles US 9 (5.5 mm) 16” circular needles Size 8 or 9 DPNs for crown decreases, or use Magic Loop 1 cable needle Stitch markers Tapestry needle Scissors Optional faux fur pom pom Yarn The sample is worked in one main color. A multicolored or speckled worsted weight yarn works beautifully with the cable pattern. One skein with approximately 200 yards should be enough.
