Medallion Tam

**Twistorama Collection: His and Her Cable Patterns – Beanie and Tam Versions** Introducing the **Twistorama Collection**, a delightful assortment of **61/2 cable patterns** that will elevate your knitting projects! This unique collection features both a stylish men's beanie and a fashionable women's tam, allowing you to create a coordinated look with the **[Medallion Duet][1]** combo. Are you ready to take on an exciting challenge with cables and twisted stitches? The tam's band is ingeniously worked sideways over a small number of stitches on a stunning twisted rib base, making it the perfect opportunity for those eager to enhance their knitting skills with cables. The finish is in sight, ensuring a satisfying knitting experience as you navigate this intricate pattern. You have the option to finish the tam band by either sewing the ends together or using a provisional cast-on to employ the 3-needle bind-off technique for a seamless join. Additionally, this band is versatile enough to be transformed into a stylish headband (it’s the 1/2 pattern in the collection), providing you with even more options to showcase your knitting talents! Once the band is complete, you’ll pick up stitches for the tam body and work in luxurious Stockinette stitch in the round, ensuring a soft and comfortable fit. To assist you along the way, we’ve included a photo tutorial that expertly demonstrates how to pick up 2 stitches per chain selvage stitch instead of just one. This handy technique can prove invaluable for many future knitting projects! The final touches of the tam feature beautifully designed decreases that form a decorative zig-zag pattern, adding an elegant flair to your finished piece. Whether you are making the beanie for him or the tam for her, the **Twistorama Collection** offers a delightful blend of style and challenge. Dive into the world of cable patterns today and enjoy the art of knitting with these charming creations!
