How to KNIT easy Hat for Beginners

[@tammi67able]

Im a brand new knitter only knew purl and knit. I made this beautiful hat, so that was very quick and easy to follow along with you .The hat is a perfect fit. Already got tons of compliments on it when I wore it. So needless to say Im working on my second one. Well explained great video, such a fun project to make . Thank u ❤

[@SyaidahSyamsu]

Very clear video and easy to follow. Love it.

[@Goatcheez33]

I really appreciate the detail and focused camera angles. For beginners, this is a GREAT tutorial! Thank you!

[@vickireutter8868]

I made this with the exact size 10mm circular needles and the exact Wool ease Thick & Quick yarn casting on the same 40 stitches and it turned out perfect for a medium size woman's head. Am thrilled with it.

[@lisar3157]

Is there no decrease necessary? Other hats I have made always decrease the last 3 or four rows (rounds) Thanks for your help

[@vickireutter8868]

@@lisar3157 I experimented with a three round decrease: k2,k2t/k1,k2t/k2t. I like it so much for a closer fit at the crown. No need to swap needles either!

Wonderful instructions and pattern. I did 36 stitches and 21 rows for a 3 year old .

[@reganbennett13]

Thank you for this info!! Going to knit one for my 2.5yr old niece and didn’t know how many stitches and rows to do!

[@StarryNightKnitting]

@@reganbennett13 I'm attempting to knit one for a small child also but had a few questions if anyone has the answer. To both you and Sheila Shearer. Did you use size 10mm and same yarn? I do far better with inches and /or cm than with rows. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

[@StarryNightKnitting]

Hi Sheila. Just wondering if you used the size 10mm needles and super chunky yarn. I do better with inch/cm than with rows . Claudetta's finished size for an adult was 8inches I believe. LOL do you happen to remember the length for your 3 year old? Thanks, Jo

[@kata5526]

Awesome! What size needles and yarn did you use? I'd like to make it for a 1 year old

[@gailgordon9716]

Truly enjoyed knitting this hat. Bought yarn yesterday and trying on hat tonight. Really easy knit😊

Beautiful and simple. Thank you

[@2kidsinutah]

I followed your directions as far as what size needles and yarn to get and casted on 40 like you said but I struggling with a big gap with the cable. Is 40 cast on stitches common for an adult hat? It seems awfully small

[@cathieharris1127]

I thought same thing. I believe it’s a child’s hat. I’m going to cast on 80. Any multiple of 2 will work.

[@pitbull5422]

I believe it has to do with the thickness of yarn, i started one with 76 stitches. my question is no decreases?

[@jomama5186]

[@janeowen5035]

Would it be possible to do this patern on straight needels ples

[@yongfamily4082]

great video! just wondering where you got your knitting needles! i've been looking, but can't seem to find the right length. thanks:)

[@plainkady]

Great pattern. Thanks for sharing. I was wandering how can this be done without the cable needles? I only got long stick like ones.

[@hefinaowen9645]

Can you do this on straight neesdls

[@melaniehernandez4831]

Yes! For the three row repeat you would have to knit all the stitches on the right side for the first row. The second row repeat would be purl all stitches. The last row would be the normal purl and knit, it doesn’t matter which side this is on.

[@blessingisrael7004]

Good job

[@fuzzylimefairy]

I'm just learning to knit and your directions are very clear and simple to follow. Thank You!

[@lisar3157]

[@Maditb]

If I want to knit this using Bulky (5) yarn, should I cast on 50 stitches instead?

[@sonshineandsong]

It's best to do a test swatch and count how many stitches for 4".Then if your head is 20" for a hat you divide by 4 to get 5 then you multiply how many stitches you got in the 4" by 5 and that equals you're cast on. This works for any kind of yarn whether it's boke or thin.

[@sonshineandsong]

Example.My head is 20",My count of stitches in 4" was Chan. So if I multiply 10 by 5 I get 50 to cast on.I really hope this helps you with any pattern you run into and any yarn you want to use.

[@sonshineandsong]

10, not Chan.😣

When I’m doing the pearl or knit stitch the yarn gets too tight and can’t move anywhere, is there any tips for this please?

[@Carol-ch9wj]

Are you knitting too tight? I have to make a conscious effort not to.....try to relax your hands and loosen up .... that might be your problem. Sounds simplistic but just try it..... :)

[@Star-wr6md]

@ Carol Allen: Thank you so much! 🥺 this is brilliant

[@sonshineandsong]

You need to pull the yarn or part separate your needles slightly more to make looser stitches.

[@sonshineandsong]

It took me over 30 years of knitting to realize that was all I needed to do to prevent tight stitches.

[@kierstynvillarreal5842]

I tried to follow this as a very beginning knitter. As in I just picked it up. I guess my tension was too tight and my stitches wouldn’t slide down the circular needles. I restarted about five times with looser tension and still the same thing. Im so frustrated. I really wanted to do this for my mother in law that is battling cancer. I’m an advanced crocheter. But Im not sure what I’m doing wrong on this. Very frustrated about this.
