Sue's Cable Hat

I finally had time to blog about this.  I finished it about a month ago and until now I had time to write about it.  This was the first attempt at cables. I really like the way it turned out.  It wasn't as difficult as I thought it would be.  This is a pattern from the Andrea Tung's Hats, Mittens and Scarves card deck -- Alexis Cable Cap (I think I will do another one in a different color).  It was really simple and I used Dolce Merino Forest Green.  Is it a very yummy color?  I did show it to my sister (I knitted it for her), and she loved it.  Yeah!  That always makes me feel really good.  Now I am looking for a mitten pattern to match this hat, one that includes a simple cable pattern.  There aren't many that are just plain with one cable running through it.  I think I found one but I am still not 100% sure.  I better be quick because winter is coming and my sister is really looking forward wearing both.  This is technically my 4th hat ever and I think I did an ok job  :-) ---::
