I’m looking for the link you mentioned for tightening the cast on loops- is that still available? I am thinking i’ll need to make the circumference a bit smaller. Thanks!
Thanks for asking – here is your link: Click HERE
Your video is faultless: I used a 36 peg loom as I wanted a relatively tight hat (and I don’t have much hair to fit underneath) and doubled up some chunky yarn (UK equivalent of bulky) and I’ve produced a really nice hat for winter running. I always thought knitting was a black art but the loom makes it easy! Keep up the good work!
Awesome! I remember when I felt the same way – never thought I would knit Anything. Thank YOU for taking the time to leave me your kind word !
I followed your video and was able to make my very first hat! I love how it turned out, and am now looking forward to watching your other videos for new ideas. Thanks for the help and keep up the great work.
Thank YOU Karrie!
Can a smaller loom be used for a toddler?
Hi Renee – you can use the 36 but the rib stitch expands and contracts I would just reduce the number of rows.
Help! I am trying to knit on scar. Directions say e wrap cast 15 stitches – I went to the right 15 and wrapped back to beginning and cast off – then it says Row 1 is K3, P3, K3, P3, K3. So I go to the Right and do row 1 – then Row to is P3, k3, p3 , k3, p3. The opposite – so I turn back to the left and do that. Is that wrong? Because it is not making the pattern. I am assuming because I’m not going all the way around that maybe the rows have different meaning when just using 1/2 loom? Can you help?
I this one of my patterns?
Will this pattern work with regular worsted weight #4 yarn? I’m trying to use up my stash. lol
You can but you would need to knit with 2 strands as 1
Thanks for answering so quickly. It seems very holey, is it supposed to be?
Not supposed to but it depends on the yarn
As always, an awesome pattern that can be worked quickly and easily for those last minute Christmas presents or to finish out for charities for adult men. That’s what we have a shortage of here.
