Cabled Baby Hats
I've gone back and forth about whether I should post this or not, because this pattern is so closely related to someone else's pattern. I'm fuzzy on how many changes you have to make before a pattern is considered "yours"...but there have been quite a few requests for these, and the original pattern was free, and I did make quite a few changes...so, witout further ado...

Cute hats! Thanks for the pattern.

Thanks for these Julie - they will get used I promise!
Thanks for sharing your patterns!
wow. this is wonderful. i think that it's a great idea!!!!!!!!!
Love the pattern!
I just finished making the Ten Cable hat. It's adorable--thank you!
I also enjoyed making the baby version so much that I modified it for an adult head...mine! I used Debbie Bliss dk cashmerino, size 4 needles, and 18 cables instead of 10. Came out beautifully. :o)
These hats are beautiful! I am 2 months pregnant and I am looking forward to my new little one wearing these cuties. Thanks!
Love the baby cabled hats. Just 2 questions, when casting on what is "pm" ? Also Row 10, what does "C6F" mean? Much thanks.
Sandi
Sandi,
pm = place marker (so you know where the beginning of the round is)
C6F = slip 3 sts to cable needle and hold in front of the work. K3, then K3 from the cable needle.
Happy knitting! :)
