Happy Hat & Cuffs

The Happy Knitting Pattern gives you the instructions to make both the beanie style hat and the cute cuffs; the hat is reversible, on the other side it has a neat rib that looks slightly more masculine than the cable. The clever shaping is hidden in the cables and makes the hat an interesting project to make, whilst the cuffs are an easy introduction to cabling. This set looks great combined with Havana Cape.

“I made several sets for presents and one for me.”
