Intertwined Cables twist around this cozy hat, designed to keep your noggin warm while you snowshoe through the woods on a crisp winter day.

This hat begins with a ribbed band, worked sideways in a long strip, then joined to create a tube. The body of the hat is worked in the round from the ribbing to the top of the hat.

The cables are easier than they look—just pay attention to whether your post stitches are worked in front or behind your previous stitches—this will ensure that they cross over each other correctly.
