When board games were popular, Hüsker Dü? was one of my favorites. The name Huskadoo is a simplified version of that Scandinavian term and is inspired by the yarn’s glorious, rich color, a maize gold, reminiscent of ripe corn. The slightly slouchy hat is knit seamlessly from the brim to the crown, with uninterrupted cabling. Although the cable looks difficult, it’s quite intuitive, if not memorizable, and a quick, fun knit in DK-weight yarn for the cable knitter.

The cable pattern is both written and charted.
