A fun and funky mosaic cabled hat with directions for both close fitting beanie and slouchy styles. The fabric produced is springy from the cables, almost double thickness from the floats and dense because of the slipped stitches giving a tight row gauge, which is great for a good woolly winter hat!

The hat is both fully charted (body and crown) and has full written instructions.

Gauge: 18 sts/32 rows in mosaic cable pattern.
To be honest, you are not going to swatch a hat in the stitch pattern in the round. As a guide you want a yarn that will give around 14-15 sts and 19-20 rows per 4”/10 cm over stocking stitch.
