The ssssssnake-like cables climbing up the hat came about from designing the Salazar Hat. These fun staggering cables culminate in an intricate looking crown that fits right into the pattern.
Written for different yarn weights and has 2 different crown options for each weight so that length is fully customizable. Has both written instructions and charts for the main pattern and different decreases.
