Reversible Cable Hat



Materials:
Heavy worsted weight yarn, approx 200 yards (130g)
(I used 2 skeins of Patons SWS in the Natural Pink colorway) Size 8 circular needle, 16 or 24 inches long. (Or size needed for gauge)
Size 8 DPNs (or longer circular for Magic Loop)
Cable needle
Stitch markers

Gauge: 19 stitches and 24 rows in 4 inches over stockingette.
This hat is one size, but given the stretchy nature of ribbing, it will fit most teens and adults. You could reduce the yarn and needle size for a smaller hat.
Directions:Cast on 120 stitches, place stitch marker, and join in the round.
Round 1: *K2, P2* around
Rounds 2-5: Repeat Rnd 1
Round 6: *K2, P2, C8F* repeat around.
Repeat rounds 1-6 two times more. Piece should measure approx 3 inches long.
*KEY*C8F: Slip 4 sts to a cable needle and hold to front, K2, P2, then K2, P2 from the cable needle.
Continue in K2, P2 rib pattern (no more cables) until piece measures 8 inches long from cast on.
Next round: [K2, P2] for 20 sts, place marker. Repeat around. 6 stitch markers total.
(Note: It is wise to make the first stitch marker a different color than the rest to distinguish the beginning of the round.)
Begin decreases:
Round 1: *K2tog, P2, [K2, P2] to next stitch marker, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Round 2: *K1, P2tog, [K2, P2] to next marker, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Round 3: *P2tog, [K2, P2] to next marker, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Round 4: *K2tog, K1, P2, [K2, P2] to next marker, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Repeat rounds 1-4 until there are 8 stitches between stitch markers or 48 stitches total, switching to DPNs, 2 circulars or a Magic Loop when necessary.
Round 5: *K2tog, P2tog, K2, P2, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Round 6: *P2tog, K2tog, P2, slip marker*. Repeat around.
Round 7: *K2tog, P2tog, remove marker*. Repeat around.

Cut yarn leaving a 12" tail. Thread needle and pull yarn through all remaining stitches. Pull snug and weave in tails.

The cables on the brim are reversible so you can wear the hat with the brim folded up or down.

 

A Reversible Cable Scarf



Materials:
Heavy worsted weight yarn, approx 385 yards (280g)
(I used 5 skeins of Patons SWS in the Natural Pink colorway. I only used portions of 3 of these skeins to keep the striping in sequence.) Size 9 needles, or size recommended for your yarn
Cable needle

Gauge: It's a scarf. Does gauge really matter? Live a little!
Scarf measures approx 64 inches long, and 4.5 inches wide.
Directions:Cast on 40 sts using your favorite cast on method.
Row 1 : (RS) *K2, P2* across
Rows 2, 3 & 4: Repeat Row 1
Row 5: (RS) *K2, P2, C8F* Repeat to last 4 sts, K2, P2
Row 6: Repeat Row 1
Repeat rows 1-6 for desired length, ending with row 4.
Bind off in K2, P2 pattern.
Weave in the ends.
Flip scarf over and over and marvel at it's reversibility!

***KEY*** VERY IMPORTANT for reversible cables!
C8F: Slip 4 sts to a cable needle and hold to front, K2, P2, then K2, P2 from the cable needle.

Want to alter the size of your scarf? To make the scarf wider or narrower, add or subtract 12 stitches to your cast on. This will add or subtract one cable repeat and approximately 1.5" from the width of the scarf.

Garden swan Dishcloth

 
You can make it as a dishcloth, but I think that is too much work to make something that is going to be used to clean things. So a good idea is too make a bunch of them, then sew them all together and you have a quilt.
