This is the yarn I won last September from Amanda*. I’ve been waiting for the perfect project and finally realized that I could double the yarn and use it for the Koolhaas hat!
The other night Stacey showed me how to do the cables without a cable needle. It does make the pattern go faster, but I’m still a little nervous about dropping the stitch! I guess I will get plenty of practice on this hat :)
*If you’d like to see some more yarn that Amanda dyes, check out her Etsy shop!
Looking good; lovely to learn a new skill too

Your hat is lovely. That hat is on my to do list, but I haven’t cast on yet. And I haven’t tried cabling without a needle yet, either.
