This is a PDF knitting pattern.
Choose two contrasting colors of DK weight wool to knit this cozy hat. The pattern begins with 2x2 ribbing that flows into a slanted cable. Stripes and slip stitches form the graphic zig zag design. Use two high contrast colors of DK weight wool for a bold color pop effect or create a subtle shadow effect with two similar tones and a lower contrast. This hat makes a great gift project with crisp clean lines that are fun to knit!
