On the last remaining loop, cut the yarn to a good length, and use a tapestry needle to pull up over the peg, through the loop, and cast off the final peg, so they’re all off of the loom.įlip the hat inside out (either side could be the right side, it depends which you prefer) and the tapestry needle will be at the bottom of the hat. Repeat until there is one peg left on the loom. Step 2: Move the stitch you just knit on Peg 2, to peg 1, and knit over. Wrap peg 2 (which is to the right of it) and knit the bottom loop over the top)

Step 1: You are at peg 30 now, for easiness, we’ll now call this peg 1. Oh well) and then use the Knitted Cast Off and seam the hat. Repeat rows 1-18 a total of 5-8 times (depending on bulkiness of yarn, size of your head, tightness of stitches, this is an estimate, I have a tiny head, so I made 5 repeats, but it could have used 6. The hat, measured from top to bottom (after being cast off, before being seamed) in inches The entire set of pegs is knit and purled, there is only one slip stitch (skip the stitch) at the first row. This helps you keep track of what row you’re on. These show where the brim starts/stops, the ending of the short rows, and the marker on Peg 22 should be movable. Place a stitch marker on Peg 4, Peg 22 and Peg 13. The hat, cast off, measured from side to side (bottom) in inches.

I will explain it at the end.Ĭrochet cast on 22 pegs (this is for a small hat, for a medium, add 3 pegs, for a large, add 6) from Right to Left: Clockwise. Knitted cast off: This works best for seaming.This means you knit a specified number of pegs, turn, and go back the other way. Wrap & Turn ( W&T in the pattern) You lift the peg up from the specified peg, wrap the yarn around it like a half stitch and then place the pre-existing peg over it.Crochet cast on (e-wrap cast on also works, but this is better for seaming).I’ve been mostly knitting on a 3/8″ or 1/4″ loom lately, I got this done in 2 hours. I love bulky projects, because they’re so quick. I got it on sale at Michael’s for $6.99 a couple weeks ago. I used Loops & Threads Country Loom yarn in “Shale”. I’m sharing this tutorial with you because I love this hat, and hope you can make one you love, too. Here’s a new beanie I made today, sideways on the green (36 peg) Knifty Knitter loom with a peg spacing of 5/8″.
