Traditional Cabled Aran Hat – Knitting Pattern

A couple of months ago I posted some photos of this hat and noted that I would be writing a pattern for it. It has taken a while to get to it, but it is available now.

This hat was one of my final two projects for the Master Hand Knitter certification program of The Knitting Guild Association. The design includes two cable patterns, bobbles, twisted stitches and background and filler stitches.

Finished Measurements:
Brim circumference 21in (53.3cm)
Length from crown to base of ear 9.5in (24.1cm)
The length is between that of a beanie and a slouch.

The charted pattern is available on Ravelry for $4.00:

Happy Knitting!
