Dreamy Cable Hat
"The Dreamy Cable Hat is a warm and thick crochet hat with wonderful texture, featuring a beautiful braided cable pattern that reminds of a fishtail braid. This crochet hat is worked as one piece from the bottom up in joined rounds, starting with the ribbing, continuing with the hat body, then the top of the hat will be shaped with a few decrease rounds. Finally the stitches on the top edge will be cinched together. The hat is made with two (fingering weight) yarn strands held together, basically using 2 skeins at the same time. "
