I love this pattern--it's easy and so warm. It's called Jason's Cashmere Hat by Melissa Thomson. I used Blackberry Ridge worsted weight yarn, Fisherman Medium Weight, 4 ply, 250 yards/skein, 100% wool, 1 skein. I purchased the wool at the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival.
I cast on another repeat of the pattern. Cast on 108 stitches using German Twisted Cast on and then k2,p2 rib for 4 inches on size 5 needles. Then switch to size 7 needles.
My finished length is approximately 8" long. I love this pretty hat!
My notes: 4 cable crosses plus rows 5-10 = 6 3/4” long with ribbing turned up.
Start decreases. After round 7: do a round of (k2, P1) around to add a
little more length.
After row 9 = 18 stitches. Do another round of decreases: k2tog. around. 9 stitches remain.
Finished length about 8” long.
