Cabled Hat Yarn Requirements
Worsted Weight #4 Shown in Natural, White, Light Aqua, Azure, & Light Grey
100% Acrylic, 180yds/100g
0-6mth (6-12mth, Toddler, Child, Adult, Large Adult)
95 (120, 145, 180, 200, 250) yards per hat
Substituting Yarn
Yarn substitution is a valuable skill for crocheters, especially when the original yarn listed in a pattern is unavailable. The same goes for the Cozy Cottage Cabled Hat pattern.
To achieve the perfect fit for the recommended hat sizes, it’s crucial to maintain the same size. If necessary, adjusting your crochet hook size can help you achieve the correct measurements. It’s worth noting that Starlette worsted yarn is slightly thicker than most worsted-weight yarns, so keep that in mind if you’re having difficulty matching gauge with a different brand.
When substituting yarn, selecting a yarn with a similar weight to the one specified in the pattern is recommended. Starting with a yarn of similar weight will give you a solid foundation.
Additionally, creating a gauge swatch before starting your project is highly recommended. This will help ensure that your tension and stitch count align with the pattern’s specifications. I suggest testing the gauge with the smallest hat to ensure accuracy.
