In this video I'm going to show you how to make this very simple beanie hat with the raindrop stitch pattern. You only have to know e-wrap stitch and purl stitch. Facebook: / lanapark91 Instagram: / lanapark91
@@debra2700 Thanks Debra..explaining in words was somehow easier then ME watching it...but also I was new to crochet 8 months to 1 year ago so now that I got some practice under my belt its much easier for me to understand Lana pattern👍
This is actually called the Alternate Long Rib Stitch. It is the same principle as rib stitching only alternating the ribs. It can be any length of rib that you like, as little as three or as big as 5-6 or more. Makes a very nice hat. Good job!
I think I prefer what Lana used. It's shorter & sounds more cute/pleasant & less intimidating,lol. It's good however 2 learn/know the technical names 2,so thanx 4 the info!
Instead of completing the e-wrap stitches, I leave them on so when I get to the next row, I have the pattern right on the loom and I never need to use rubber bands.
I just knitted this pattern - i don't use any markers when I am only using K1, P1 patterns - what I do is wrap the knit stitch, but I don't knit it off - then I go to the purl stitch and purl, then wrap the next knit stitch without knitting it off then do the purl - do this for the entire row then go back and knit off all the knit stitches
@@LanaPark Thank you, total noob...just got a loom today, so wanted to make sure there wasn't some kind of rule about more pegs, even if it was still an even amount, lol
I loved making the smaller version of this!! I want to make another one of these for my friend and I have yarn I would love to use but it is 7 jumbo- do I need to adjust the pattern? when i make the rows of 4, should i just do rows of 2, if that makes sense? Or still do rows of 4, but fewer rows total? Thank you! Love your videos! :)
This video was pretty easy to follow until the part about how to secure the brim to the hat. I had to slow it down and re-watch a few times. I think that was mainly because the instructions only said to use the initial tail of yarn. From what it looked like to me, you used what was left from the top of the hat (after closing it) on the one side, and then you used the initial tail on the other side. Oh! I was also curious as to why we weren't shown how to attach the pom-pom. I've never done that before, so I didn't know how. I am very happy with how my hat turned out though, so thank you for your instruction. For my hat, I used a 40 peg loom, and I only needed one skein of Yarn Bee acrylic yarn (76 yards) super bulky size 6. I actually didn't need the whole skein, but pretty close! My hat will fit a grown man. :-)
Hi! Thank you for watching the video and leaving a comment 🥰 the part about how to secure the brim to the hat is optional and super simple…. And if you want I can make a video about how to attach the Pom Pom… I haven’t shown it in this video because I’ve made it in other videos, and if you want, you can watch my other videos to see how to do it!
@@LanaPark thank you so much for your reply! I have actually made a second hat now because I absolutely LOVE this pattern! I have figured out how to secure the brim, and I will definitely go back to see how to attach a pom-pom! I am looking forward to checking out more of your videos!
I made the brim at 9-10 cm, then I didn't understand . It says continue with the e wrap an purl stitch, How does that make the raindrop stitch. I couldn't see the difference inn the brim and the hat part. Did I miss something.? I am confused!! Help.
This video has been out for a while, but I love the pattern. How much yarn did you use for the whole beanie? Would 180m/100g at needle size 7.0-8.0 be enough?
There are several very good videos on RU-vid that compare the various stitches used in loom knitting. Just do a search on Ewrap vs Uwrap and you'll find them.
There are several different free apps you can download to your Smartphone to keep track. I use paper and pen personally. I write out the number of rows I want then when I start the row I put a / symbol next to it. That way I know what row I'm on if I get interrupted. When I finish the row I cross off the / making it look like X. Then I know to start the next row. Hope this helps.
You’re welcome. I made ur hat for the rice stitch oh my goodness it’s so beautiful. So I’m definitely trying this one, love the music too it’s so uplifting ❤❤
