**Short Row Cable Braided Hat Knitting Pattern**
Knit entirely from side to side and finished with a grafting technique, this unique hat pattern eliminates the need for circular or double pointed needles, making it accessible and convenient for knitters of various levels. The standout feature of this hat is a tight cabled braid that encircles the brim, creating a refined and neat edge. The innovative use of short rows results in beautifully crafted triangular wedges that form a pointed tip and a gently sloping shape at the top of the hat. For optimal results showcasing the striking short row shaping, we recommend using a self-striping yarn like Noro with long color repeats in highly contrasting shades. This not only enhances the overall aesthetic of your project but also adds a touch of artistry to your knitting.
This knitting pattern is also available as part of the comprehensive [Short Row Hats][2] collection, perfect for expanding your knitting repertoire.
**Skill Level**
Intermediate to Advanced
This pattern involves techniques such as provisional cast on, basic knit and purl stitches, grafting, cabling, and short rows, making it ideal for seasoned knitters looking to refine their skills or take on a new challenge.
**Dimensions**
The finished size will fit Small (large): 18 (21) inches around the brim. The sample shown utilizes the size large.
**Recommended Yarn**
For this project, we suggest using Noro Kureyon (Aran weight, 100% wool, 110 yards/101 meters per 50 gram skein), specifically in color 207. You will require 1 skein for this pattern (for both sizes).
**Materials Needed**
- 1 set of US#8/5mm straight or circular needles, or size needed to achieve gauge
- Tapestry needle for seamless grafting
- Waste yarn for the provisional cast on
- A cable needle (1, optional, for ease when cabling)

Be sure to check your gauge before beginning to ensure the perfect fit for your Short Row Cable Braided Hat.
Get ready to elevate your knitting skills and create a stunning accessory that not only keeps you warm but also showcases your creativity. Happy knitting!
