Ligneous Cable Knit Hat

"Ligneous features a truly unique all-over cable texture, reminiscent of a deep barked tree," observes Carls. "This texture is subtly supported by the slight variation of the kettle-dyed yarn. Knit in super soft merino wool that is warm, lush, and sumptuous." She's exactly right on all counts. How someone living in Texas can understand just what constitutes a wonderful winter hat is a puzzle, but you can see for yourself how beautiful it is-- and how well-judged the combination of yarn, colour, and stitch pattern really is. The cable pattern is not charted, but it's so simple there's hardly a need.
