Easy cables flow from the simple ribbed brim, running the length of the hat and neatly into the crown. Instructions are included for working in the round and to knit flat and then seam. The cables are charted and full written instructions are also provided. Wear with a little slouch or the brim folded up for a snugger, cosier fit. Pompom optional!
