    About

    I made this for my partner for dog walking along the beach. It is very soft but chunky wool so doesn’t scratch his slightly bald head.
    I loved this wool so much I have ordered it in heather to make a cable sweater for myself.

    Pattern

    Yarns

    Needles & Hooks

    • Circular 5.50mm (US 9) 40cm

    Accessories

    • Cable Needle
    • Stitch Markers
    Other : Used a circular needle.
    TIP: put a marker at beginning of row so you know each time you complete a round. I loved knitting this interesting pattern.

    Measurements

    52cmx22cm

    Notes: It came up a little bigger as I used chunky wool and not double knitting. It fits perfectly and is quite stretchy. It will fit my smaller head too.

      I used King Cole chunky “stream”. Lovely to work with and lovely colour. I used it for a cardigan too in “heather” it is super warm.

        It’s really soft too so your head doesn’t get too itchy like some wool.
