Spring Shadows Braid Cable Hat

This soft mesh Spring Shadow Braid Cable Hat is a great between-seasons hat for when the weather's cool but not quite cold. The space between the cabled braid in this hat is largely mesh, which keeps the hat from being too warm and heavy. The hat is adorned with a braided cable knit to add some complexity to the pattern. Try knitting a hat with the yarn used in these instructions for the full "spring shadows" effect of shifting cloudy blues and greens. Best of all, this knit hat pattern uses just one skein of yarn!
