Small Spiral Cable Hat

Introducing our beautifully crafted beanie hat design featuring a unique cable detail that begins slightly higher on each column, creating a stunning and subtle spiral effect. This innovative design offers a fresh take on the classic Aran motif while ensuring it remains a very wearable accessory for your winter wardrobe. Whether you're a knitting enthusiast or a beginner, this hat is sure to become a favorite in your collection!

This pattern is suitable for any high-quality Aran yarn, and we've included detailed instructions for adjusting both width and length, making it versatile for various head sizes and styles. The beanie is knitted seamlessly using just one size of needles, promoting a smooth finish, and the ribbed design adds a delightful stretch for comfort and fit. When finished, the beanie measures approximately 19 inches (48 cm) in circumference (when laid flat, unworn) and stands 9 inches (23 cm) tall from brim to crown—though these dimensions can be easily adjusted as you knit to achieve your perfect length!

For this beanie hat pattern, we recommend 5 mm needles (US size 8), but keep in mind that there's some leeway since Aran yarns can vary slightly in thickness. To achieve the best results, refer to the needle size suggested for the specific Aran yarn you choose to use. Whether you opt for vibrant colors or classic neutrals, this hat is a fantastic project that melds style with practicality—making it the ideal accessory for chilly days. Don't miss the chance to add this unique knitted beanie to your collection, and enjoy the compliments that follow!
