This is a follow-up to ‘Toukulele’. This hat is constructed like Toukulele, only the cable motif is a fiddle/violin/cello/string base, instead of a ukulele/acoustic guitar.
Now gift-knitting will cover most string musicians!
The cable motif toward the bottom of the hat will allow more stretch at the crown of the hat which helps the hat stay on and allows for a bit of slouch.
It is a fast knit using Aran or Heavy Worsted weight yarn.
