Yes, I know this wasn't on my list, but I saw this hat on Instagram and fell in love with the cables. a rifle through my yarn stash and I found Big Bertha by Dirty Water Dye Works from Fig Tree Yarns. I purchased this yarn for a pair of gloves which were unpicked last year.
This is the third beanie that I have knit in the last month.The pattern is the Manel Hat by Lucia Ruiz de Aguirre. I used 3.5mm needles as
per the pattern. I also made a cardboard blocker to make the hat look better as all that ribbing and cables, pulls in the hat. I might cut one out of Perspex at our local library on their laser cutter now that I have worked out the dimensions of the blocker. This will be a Christmas present for my daughter Lizzie.
