There are two PDF files with the instructions: for kids and for adults. They are merged into one PDF.
 
I love cables. In fact, I’ve always loved them - simple ones, intricate ones, absolutely all of them. When I was a teenager, I learned how to knit them but only one simple type which always turning in the same direction. So I hid my love for cables deep down in my heart for many years.
But this winter everything has changed. I’m no longer a teen struggling to make something nice, now I’m a mom who needs some warm and quick knits to keep my happy toddler cozy. And that’s how my love for cables came back to me, this time with great impact and a lovely hat for kids.
