Create your own versatile neck gaiter that transforms to a hat!

It can be a tube around your neck, keeping drafts and cold winds out. Cinch up the drawstring on one end, and it becomes a hat. And it just looks fun, with the cord cinched up, resembling a tassel. The cabled band is knit first as a strip and joined end to end. Stitches are picked up along one edge and knitting proceeds as a tube, finished off with a casing. Two-ply overdyed sport tweed yarn or natural grey tweed is available to mix and match. Two-ply sport weight Cody can be substituted for the project, if solid colors are preferred to a tweedy look.
