Cabled Pom Pom Hat

I finally finished my pom pom hat! Life distractions kept getting in the way so it took me longer to finish than I would have liked, but I finished it the day before the Long Island Yarn Crawl started and then managed to find the perfect pom pom for it at the first shop of the crawl.

I used this pattern but I altered it a bit.

I didn’t like that there was only the one cable panel so I divided up the stitches so that there could be two.

I’m so happy with my hat. It’s so soft and comfy and pretty. :relaxed: It also got to be a model for what the yarn looks like worked up while wearing it on the yarn crawl.

You did a terrific job! I have that hat in my library…I agree that two cables are better!

The pom pom was the perfect touch…

That’s fantastic! I :heart: cables (I can’t knit, so live vicariously through those who can do them, haha), and the colourway you chose is just perfect.

Thanks everyone! The cable gave me some trouble, but I’m glad I worked through it!
I love the yarn. It’s called Painted Mist. It felt like working with hand spun yarn.

Thanks! I’m excited to get to start wearing it again soon. I finished it in the spring so I didn’t get to wear it too much before it started getting warm out.
