Finished Mondo Cable Cap :: Mystery KAL
The Mini-Mystery KAL is complete and I am thrilled with the outcome. It's a slouchy hat designed with large ("Mondo") cables. I used one skein of Cascade 220 Heathers (mine was colorway 2453) but any worsted weight yarn with comparable yardage would work. Bonne Marie released the pattern in three phases (three consecutive Saturdays beginning September 26, 2009) to the knit-along participants and once the knit-along was complete, the pattern was made available at Chic Knits to purchase: Mondo Cable Cap.
I love the large, simple cables:
And I'll definitely make another . . .
. . . because this one was claimed before I even finished knitting it
It's a very economical pattern -- most yarn shops sell Cascade 220 for under $7 (USD) per skein, so for less than $12, you can knit your own in a weekend. Now to decide what color to knit next . . .

It's lovely! It looks great in the Cascade 220. I'm still on the 2nd clue.

love the pattern and it looks wonderful on your daughter. Still can't believe you have a daughter her age.
