**Stylish Knitting Pattern: Cozy Hat with Cable Design** **SIZING:** Our knitting pattern offers three sizes: Small (S), Medium (M), and Large (L), with measurements of 17.5” (S), 19” (M), and 20.5” (L) / 44 cm (S), 48 cm (M), and 52 cm (L) respectively. For the perfect fit, this hat is designed to be worn with approximately 3.75” / 9 cm of negative ease. The sizes accommodate head circumferences of approximately 21” (S), 22” (M), and 23.25” (L) / 53 cm (S), 56 cm (M), and 59 cm (L). The sample size knitted is Medium and is worn on a 22” / 56 cm head for reference. **GAUGE:** Ensure your stitches are spot on with our gauge measurements: 10 stitches and 15 rows equals 4” / 10 cm in Stockinette stitch using larger 9 mm needles. You will achieve the same gauge—10 stitches and 15 rows equals 4” / 10 cm—in the stunning cable pattern, also with the larger 9 mm needles. **YARN:** This cozy hat is knitted using Pascuali Maximo, a luxurious blend of 100% organic merino virgin wool. Each skein weighs 100 g and offers 87 yards / 80 meters.
