Exciting Opportunity: You can sell your completed items! Simply credit me as the designer, and share the love of knitting with others.

Materials Needed: To create this delightful set, gather the following materials: 4.5mm or 7US or 7UK single pointed knitting needles, a large cable needle, 100g or 7.8oz of Elle Family Knit Vintage Double Knit yarn in the beautiful colour of Cantaloupe (229), 3 x 22mm pink and white buttons, matching sewing thread, and a needle for sewing.

Knitting Methods Used: This pattern employs a variety of knitting techniques, including casting on using the thumb method, knitting in garter stitch, purling, and working in stocking stitch (1 knit row followed by 1 purl row). You'll also learn to K2tog (Knit 2 stitches together as one), cast off, and sew the hat edges together using mattress stitch. The hat is knitted flat and then expertly seamed for a polished finish.

Cable Methods Used: In this pattern, you'll master the C6B cable method, which involves cable crossing 6 stitches while holding the cable needle to the back of your work. This creates a stunning texture that elevates the design. Simply slip 3 stitches onto a cable needle, hold it to the back, knit the next 3 stitches as normal, and then knit the 3 stitches from the cable needle to complete the cable.

Unleash your creativity with the Cable Hat and Cowl set and showcase your knitting skills! This project is not only fun to create but also a fantastic way to stay warm and stylish during the cooler months. Happy knitting!
