I wanted to make a hat with a flat top and an interesting pattern so I made hat number 3 with squares. It has a traditional e-wrap bottom but I did the pattern with u-wrap. You will need 2 colors of yarn, a 31 peg loom, loom hook and yarn needle. Double e-wrap all the pegs in color 1. Rounds 1-5: flat stitch (u-wrap) knit all around. Rounds 6 – 10: You will use two colors, carrying one behind the other as you complete this pattern. Knit 6, pick up color 2 by attaching with a slip stitch to peg 7, knit 6, pick up color 1, knit 6, pick up color 2, knit 6 around, * pick up color 1, knit 6, pick up color 2, knit 6, repeat from * around. Rounds 7 – 14 flat stitch knit in color 1. Rounds 14 -19 repeat rounds 6 – 10. Rounds 20 – 27 repeat rounds 14 – 19 in color 1. Rounds 28 – 30 repeat rounds 6 – 8. Rounds 31-32: repeat rounds 7 – 9 in color 1. Round 33: purl around in color 1. Rounds 34 – 38 : repeat rounds 14-19 in color 1. Rounds 39 – 41 – repeat rounds 16 – 10. Change to color 1. Round 42: knit 1 round. Cut long tail (at least 6 inches) pull thread through each stitch, lift all the stitches off, draw carefully closed. Use tail to sew hold closed. Weave in all threads. My next blog will explain: why publish hat patterns in August?
