Wheatsheaf Hat

If you're looking to knit a cozy and stylish cabled hat for winter, you've come to the right place! This delightful hat pattern features intricate cables that evoke the essence of a Wheatsheaf at harvest time, while others might see a reminder of warm Winter Kisses. With a ribbed brim (K1, P1), you can easily customize the length to your liking. In Version 2, you have the option to create a double-thick folded brim, ensuring your head stays snuggly warm during the chilly months.

This versatile pattern is designed for maximum stretch, making it suitable for most head sizes—16 to 22 inches for the smaller size and 22 to 25 inches for the medium/large option. The main difference between the Adult S and M/L sizes lies in the depth of the hat and the initial cast-on for the brim. To achieve the perfect fit, simply switch up your needle size; for the M/L size, I recommend using a 5.5mm/US9 circular needle for the main body of the hat.

Not only is this hat unisex, allowing it to be a wonderful gift for anyone in your life, but you can also add a playful pompom on top for a touch of winter whimsy. Whether you're trying your hand at cabling for the first time or you're an experienced knitter, this pattern promises to be both fun and quick to whip up. Embrace the spirit of winter and create a beautiful, functional accessory for yourself or your loved ones with this cabled hat pattern!
