ABIESbeanie
What is better than a winter themed cable beanie?
ABIES features a lovely stylized fir tree cable motiv that is alternated with classic 2/2 cables merging into a star shape at the crown. Worked with 7mm needles this is a quick and rewarding knit.
The cables can be worked with or without a cable needle and both witten and chartedinstructions are given for you to choose.
