Cast on 57 st plus 2 est, and knit one wrong-side row. Continue knitting the cable pattern, see chart instructions. After a total length of approx. 68 cm (= 136 r), increase by 3 x 2 st in every 2nd r, and after that by 8 x 1 st in every 2nd r (= 73 st) at the right edge of the piece of work, for the head curve. Integrate the added st into the cable pattern (see chart instructions). After a total length of 104 cm (= 206 rows), end with a 6th pattern row, bind off the stitches as they appear.

Close the back seam of the hood after the end of the increases and the upper seam of the hood as flat as possible.
