DESCRIPTION
Hibernia was the name given by the ancient Romans to the island of Ireland, the land of winter. The Hibernia Quartet is a set of four DK-weight accessories rife with cables and ancient lore. The focal point of each of the patterns is an interlocking cable with a moss stitch center.Hibernia Beanie is worked bottom up from the ribbed brim to the crown. The beanie can be worn two ways: watch cap style with the long ribbing folded up along a hidden line or with the brim turned down for super slouch. This comfortable hat comes in two sizes and is finished with an optional pom pom on top.
This pattern is written with both metric and US terminology. Both written and charted instructions are given for all cable patterns.
