Eight cables separated by a twisted stitch, and a crown that decreases into the pattern.
The hat is worked in the round. The pattern is only 11 stitches and 8 rounds: once the round 1 cable is done, you simply work the stitches as they appear.
On the crown, the decreases follow the cables, which shrink towards the center.
Not yet checked by a knitter: if you find a mistake, please report it. contact@nico7an.fr
Good to know
For a roomier, slightly slouchy hat, work the pattern 4 times instead of 3 (allow 30 m more yarn).
