G’night Cap

I fell in love with the cables for the gnomes in the Here We Gnome Again pattern, and I realized only a few tweaks were needed to make their hat for myself. How could I resist? I couldn’t! I love cables, and I love joyous hats for dark winter days.

There are 5 video tutorials for this pattern – 4 to help you cable without a cable needle and one about making tassels. They’re linked in the pattern but you can also find them on my YouTube channel.
