Valley Yarns Cameo is a cozy hat with a cabled brim, button details, and timeless tweedy style. Your project begins with the cabled brim which is knit flat in one piece and seamed to form a loop before picking up stitches to work the body of the hat in stockinette stitch in the round through the crown. Valley Yarns Taconic is a soft blend of cashmere and Merino wool that has a luxurious feel and gorgeous tweed texture. Create a warm, versatile hat perfect for warding off the chill or giving as a gift to a knitworthy friend with Cameo! Cable pattern is both charted and written out.
