The body of this hat: Row 1 and 2: Knit, Purl, Knit Purl, etc.. Row 3 and 4: Purl, Knit, Purl, Knit, etc.. Row 5 and 6: Knit, Purl, Knit Purl, etc.. Keep following this sequence until you reach row number 19 and then proceed to close the beanie :) !
On row 1 of the body, she is KTBL on the knits. On the second row (which is a repeat of the first one), she is knitting through the front on the knits. IDK if she continued with this on rows 3&4. I guess I will do it that way and see what I get.
Any beginners who were as confused as I was read. Once I got the hang of this it was pretty simple. I learned to crochet a long time ago, so I also knit holding my yarn as she does which is called continental knitting. I find it much easier and faster to do it this way too! For the body of this, the first 2 rows she's Knitting Thru the Back Loop(KTBL) then a Purl stitch (she's just repeating row one into row 2) Make sure to use a place holder of some sort so you know when you are starting a new row Then rows 3-4 Purl then Knit Thru Back Loop (KTBL) Again make sure you have your stitch marker/place holder Rows 5-6 KTBL then purl. Once you've reached your marker after completing row 6 start the row 1-2 sequence again thru 5-6 until you've gone thru each sequence three times totaling 18 rows. I hope this makes sense and helps any new knitters out there!
Thank you for this, I'm not technically a beginner but even I just assumed the "odd" knit stitch was part of the continental style, but it does really make the pattern what it is in this case to KTBL
Actually, shes not knitting through back on 2nd row. Shes knitting from front. On the second loop around she knits through front. Dunno why? But I found pattern more defined if you follow her way. And 1st and second row are purl then knit. 3rd and 4th are knit then purl.
Hi Sherri. I sure could use some help. I am a "very" beginner. Is this correct: For the body of the hat we do the following: Row 1: KTBL, Purl, KTBL, Purl, etc. Row 2: KTBL, Purl, KTBL, Purl, etc. Row 3: Purl, KTBL, Purl, KTBL, etc. Row 4: Purl, KTBL, Purl, KTBL. Is this correct? Thank you. Barbara
While I am recuperating from surgery on my feet, I am making this hat of your design. Thanks for your easy to follow tutorial. You speak fabulous English! Absolutely fantastic.
Every time I need a refresher on knitting I use this video. I think I even originally learned from this video. I’m a crocheter usually but want to do more knitting. Just used this video to make myself a lovely hat. Thanks much.
Good Morning, Thank you for sharing this Gorgeous Hat Tutorial. Today is Tuesday January 24th, 2023. And I'm about to make this Lovely, "Well Explained" hat. I actually woke up this morning wondering what Hat can I make today to add to my Donation Bag at the end of the year. And your Tutorial popped up on my screen. Thank you so very much for your Creative Inspiration. Please keep makeing Pretty things to share with us all. I Appreciate it! 😊
What is the circumference of your head in inches? measured at the forehead. My son has a large head too I am trying to figure out how many stitches to cast on.
I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS HAT! I made quite a few of them about three years ago and completely forgot about it. SOOO happy I've stumbled upon your video again! Cutest and easiest hat out there! Thanks so much for this video!
Thank you. I will be knitting this hat. It looks like you are using the Moss stitch, another name is Seed stitch. Love it. I have Wool Ease in this color, so I will be knitting this up. It looks super fast and super easy. Thanks for sharing. Lisa
Hi Dani, I like and have knitted your Fair Isle hat. Thank you. Love how you teach. ❤️ btw Just wanted to let you know I've knit this hat and others similar to it. The stitches you use do have a name. Double Moss stitch since you are doing 2 similar rows. When one row is used and the second row you alternate the knit and purl stitch, it's called a seed stitch. Lovely! Keep up the job of helping all the newbies! 😂😊
Hi. I noticed you knit more efficiently than I learned because you have wrapped around your left hand and thread the yarn as you stitch. Do you have a video on how you knit or know of a video that demonstrates how you knit? Thank you!
I used the same items and did the exact same pattern but mine will not fit an adult. this was a child’s hat format for me. I will try again and double the first cast on so maybe 90 stitches. Nice pattern thought and great explanation. Thanks for sharing 🧶
Great hat! I will try this and let you know how it turns out. BTW, you did a really good job at making it look simple and easy to follow. Thanks, as I am new to knitting!
I love this pattern, thank you for sharing this with us. I am trying to finish mine now..just wondering if I like to make a messy bun using this pattern, what row should I stop?
your explanations are fine, not to worry :) I have been knitting for about forty years but I have never seen the knitting technique you are using. Do you have a tutorial for your knitting technique? I use the English style knitting technique however, it seems your technique seems to be much faster. Thank you
Hi, this is so beautiful but in your video you say to start the body of the hat with a PURL stitch. Your pattern above says KNIT. Please advise. I’m anxious to start🙏🏼
I followed every steps and used the same supply yarn and needles and number of stitches but it came out big, any suggestions it turned out like a slouchy hats.
I never knitted on circular needles before, but I plan on making this hat.....however, I'm ready to start with the same clover 9 mm needles that your using and I do know the basic knit and purl stitch, but I'm just wondering if you have to knit in the back loop of the needle in order for this pattern to turn out. I've always been taught to knit in the front of my needle. Does this make a difference???? Thanks. Great video.
Great tutorial! Thank you! I just knit my first hat! It came out great except that it is a little big. I didn't think I had a loose knitting hand but maybe I do. Any recommendations for future projects so things don't always come out big? Or did anyone else find this pattern big... thanks for the help!
Can anyone that's made this share how many yards of yarn you used? I would like to try this pattern out with a color that's discontinued and I only have one ball. Thanks.
Are there written instructions? What is written in the description seems to contradict what's going on in the video.... otherwise currently searching for mock instructions for this
Hi, how many stitches for a child size hat? Hi, how many stitches for a child size hat? So row 20 knit 1 purl 1 K2tog 21 knit 1 decrease 22 decrease Is this correct Cast on 43
Honestly this was a great video but your instructions made no sense, you didn’t say to knit through back loop which you are doing, this would give someone a totally different result and if that happened to me I’d be so upset, please say that next time :)
I needed this for my husband but it was too small. I used a super bulky size 6. Do I need to use a larger size yarn or do I need to cast on more stitches?
Ashley, without some sort of swatch on offer, you'll likely have to wing it to figure out a larger size. You can do either or both of those options (I'm editing to say, I misread your question to say larger needle not larger yarn. I would not try a larger yarn.) It depends how much too small the hat is. You could stick with the same needle size and start off with more stitches. Unfortunately, you'll have to guess how many to start with. Or you could maybe look for a hat pattern in seed or moss stitch using the yarn and needle size you have. Ravely let's you narrow your search using those parameters if that helps.
@@ashunderwood88after watching her video it looks like she only knits tbl on stitches that were purled the row before. She knits through the front loop on knit stitches.
I noticed that you knit two different ways. First, you knit in the front loop.. then you knit in the back loop. Is there a reason for this because I'm very confused. Kindly explain. Thank you.
Hi thanks for the tutorial I made 5 of this hat already and gave all to gift. Everyone loves the pattern! Here I have question that how many chains I have to make for little girl like 6-7 and 3-4 year old? Thanks for answering !!!
has anyone finished? Is 43 enough stitches for an adult size? seems small. also I see there are a lot of questions concerning knitting from the back, is that just her style, or is it necessary? I've done moss stitch, but not on knitting in the round and wondered if you must knit from the back.
43 is enough stitches with bulky weight yarn on 9mm needles. She knits the continental way which is her style. She is not knitting through the back of the stitch. Google continental to help understand. It's not necessary, just knit the wsy you learned
@@carolynb1413 Thanks, I went ahead and made it but added a few stitches, making it not so snug, but nice if you don't want a flat head of hair after wearing it. made my brim with only 6 rows, and added a couple rows to the body. so easy I finished it in about 3 hours.. so made another one the next day!!!
She's knitting continental combination style, using a Western counter-clockwise wrap when she knits, and an Eastern clockwise wrap when she purls. That results the stitch mount for her purls being reversed, with the leading leg of the stitch on the back side of the needle.
One of your rows with a knit stitch, you knitted in the back of the stitch. In a second row, you knitted in the front of the knit stitch. Is this intentional? You did not specify.
