Kerry is a professional knitwear designer. She created this toasty hat using a bouncy, 3-ply yarn she spun from American Tunis roving purchased from Tarheelbilly Farm.

The hat is knitted in the round from the bottom up, beginning with an optional alternate cable cast on and a long, ribbed brim to fold up for maximum warmth. The cable section can be worked from the charts or written instructions.
