This little beanie is a surprisingly quick knit despite all of the ribbing. It is a meditative knit with an intricate yet simple cable. You will need a cable needle to work the cable pattern because you are crossing a lot of stitches at once. The hat offers the option to make it either fitted or a little slouchy. Top it with a massive pom pom for a super cute look.
