I love how the cabled leafy design looks like a tangled vine traveling up the sides of the hat.
It was a very interesting and fun stitch pattern to work up.
The yarn that I used, Becoming Art Cielo Sport, complements the design so nicely. It shows off the textured pattern very well and the subtle highlights in the color bring the pattern to life.
