First cabling project, and I only screwed up the top, a little bit, though I never quite got the hang of "knowing" where a cable should go -- it was a feat of memory and a friendly fashion student at the event I was at on the weekend who was a knitter and had a tapestry needle in her bag.
It's Brooklyn Tweed's habitat hat, and the cables on the top on the sample are crisper than mine. But it was fun and it's CUTE.
The yarn is Green Mountain Mohair, colour Jasper. Same yarn I made L's scarf with in the spring. And I really want to make a sweater out of this yarn.
And I also made a new blog for my Africa trip:

Subscribe. I leave on Saturday.

Hat love! You should be totally chest-puffingly proud of yourself for your first cabled project.
But why is the yarn called "Green Mountain ..." when it is clearly NOT green??
