I haven't knit for many years. When I was a teenager my two grandmothers taught me to knit. One was from Norway and she taught me the Scandinavian way. I want to knit a hat for my husband who has a really large head. It sounds like this pattern will be perfect! Wish me luck.

I cast on 80 stitches to make a similar width, and didn't decrease until the length = 10 inches so that the brim could be folded over double around the ears. Also, when I started decreasing, I started knitting 8 stitches before the ssk on the knit row, and then 7 stitches before each ssk and so on. This made the decrease a little more gradual to make up for using the finer needles. My husband reports that it is even warmer than the heavier-weight wool, but it looks much less bulky than my previous chunky-weight lopi on the 5mm needles.<br />I also discovered a new trick when joining in round: cast on 1 extra stitch, and when you join your castings together, twist/spin the last cast on around 3-4 times (to tighten it a little), then place it on your left-hand needle and knit it together with the first stitch in round. This smooths out the "jog" created by spiraling stitches around and on top of each other, and makes a smooth and perfect edge with no "stretched out" stitch connecting the last in round to the first in the next round!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402017903735085511.post-33262638985307056742016-11-25T08:39:33.875-08:002016-11-25T08:39:33.875-08:00Makes a nice thick cap with the heavir weight Lopi...Makes a nice thick cap with the heavir weight Lopi yarn (tho a little scratchier) For any of you beginners, this is an excellent pattern. just choose a chunky weight type yarn that is typically for 5.5 - 6.5 mm, and knit it on the smaller 5 mm needles. This gives you a nice, warm hat. I tried out portugeuse style knitting, and even tho my tension was really tight it still came out great!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402017903735085511.post-37113393253846481222016-11-05T23:03:50.296-07:002016-11-05T23:03:50.296-07:00Wondering if anyone has used this pattern with a s...Wondering if anyone has used this pattern with a super bulky yarn. I want to use it with "Tahki Gemini" which is super bulky and calls for a US 17 needle. If anyone has used with a thicker yarn...how many stitches did you decrease by? or is there a general rule to figure this out that I don't know (I am somewhat new to knitting).

Example. The original pattern is 64 stitches and the original decrease is k9, ssk. If you increase the pattern by 8 to 72 stitches, the decrease rounds would start at k10, ssk. Same with decreasing stitches. Going down 8 stitches means lowering the decrease rounds by 1.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14390173851462486719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402017903735085511.post-46288140420822450212015-12-03T21:39:55.530-08:002015-12-03T21:39:55.530-08:00You can use the magic loop method.

Does the author, or anyone more experienced than myself, know how if I can continue to decrease as is written, or if there's another way to decrease? This is the last project for my family's Christmas presents, all 14 of them.

The directions are crystal, but here's a breakdown of what I did and I ended up with a lovely reversible cap:<br /><br />Row 1: knit 1, purl 1: repeated to the end.<br />Row 2: just knit all the way to the end.<br /><br />Repeat rows 1 and 2 until piece measures 7" long<br /><br />To decrease: knit 6 stitches normally, slip 2 knit wise and then knit those two together (you turn 8 stitches into 7). Then knit 6 normally, slip 2 knit wise and then knit those two together (you should have 14 stitches completed). Repeat this set until you reach the end of the row.<br />On the next row, k1,p1 until the end.<br />knit 5 stitches normally, slip 2 knit wise and then knit those two together (you should have turned 7 stitches into 6)...repeat this all until the end.<br />On the next row k1,p1 until the end<br /><br />On the k1,p1 rows, every other k1, p1 row ends in a knit stitch. <br /><br />Here's an awesome ssk video tutorial:<br />http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RGwcYW3GG3M<br /><br />Golihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16823318655953458034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402017903735085511.post-14509980201002006422014-03-21T21:01:31.435-07:002014-03-21T21:01:31.435-07:00You'll just have some rows that will begin wit...You'll just have some rows that will begin with k1 and end in k1, and then you'll start the very next row with another k1.Golihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16823318655953458034noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3402017903735085511.post-154349556315380952014-03-21T20:59:29.253-07:002014-03-21T20:59:29.253-07:00Great Pattern!
