Cable columns pop in the Back Bay hat & mitts set, giving them a univeral appeal. Clever integrated decreases on the crown create a smooth finish for the hat and reverse stockinette background on the mitts showcase the cable panel. These fun projects are great for gifts and their bottom up, seamless construction makes them quick knits too!

Cable patterns are both charted and written out.
