A hat, cabled, from the top down = ???

[terrathree]

I have a hat, in search of a name. I knit this hat for Uncle Bruce for Christmas, my own design. I wanted to try out starting a hat at the top and working down to have better control over the length of it, rather than casting on at the bottom edge, knitting up until it seemed about the right place to start shaping the crown, then working crown

Splitting Streams? The third picture from the top suggested it....

I WANT TO MAKE IT!!! *cough*

Hmm... top-down trellis? top-down cable'd star? I'm awful at naming patterns, but I think putting 'top down' or 'crown down' in it would be a good idea, like the whole 'toe up' socks and whatnot, so folks know what they're gettinginto ? :)
