Knotty But Nice Cabled Hat

This is a hat I made during my knitted hats phase. I'm still in that phase a bit, but I've been consumed by embroidery and a bit of fair isle. The fair isle hat is turning out brilliantly, but it's been sitting in my craft closet for the last few weeks due to other craft craziness.

So behold, the purple cabled hat! It was easy and fun, but it's also what made me decide that I'm officially out of my cable phase. It seems like everything I've knit for the last two years has been cabled.
