Windcaller

Introducing the Windcaller Hat, a stylish and functional knitted accessory that combines warmth and intricate design, perfect for keeping you cozy all winter long. This stunning hat begins with a tubular cast-on (or feel free to use your favorite stretchy cast-on technique) and features a beautiful 1x1 rib pattern for added elasticity and comfort. Following the ribbing, an increase round is incorporated to bridge the difference in gauge between the ribbing and the striking cable pattern. The cable design is skillfully knitted until the hat measures 2.25 inches (4 cm) less than your desired final height, at which point crown decreases are executed for a polished finish.

For this project, you will need 140 (160, 190) yards of worsted weight yarn, which translates to approximately [130 (146, 174) meters]. Our sample, in the Teen/Adult Small size, was crafted using 160 yards (146 meters) of Worsted 2 Ply yarn from Twin Oaks Farm, showcased in the mesmerizing colorway Blue Heather.

Please note: It's highly recommended to substitute your yarn with one that boasts excellent stitch definition, offering the lightness and uniformity needed to accentuate these intricate cable designs beautifully.

Important Note: This pattern includes both written and charted instructions for your convenience.
