How to knit SIMPLE beanie - easy pattern

[@ymfg9004]

Thank you so much for revealing how long the long tail needs to be for casting on! I haven't watched a video that revealed that simple ratio and then I have struggled over and over until I magically had enough thread for this casting on method - but mostly I just go back to the original cast on method with two needles that my mother taught me sixty years ago!! I love the beanie too and am planning to make one. Best wishes. 💖

Thank you so much for the pattern 😊. It's really pretty. However er, it has to be multiple of 4 and add one more to when start the pattern. Not any odd number

[@FairGround702]

Thank you for sharing and demonstrating this stitch. I have incorporated it into a sweater pattern and love how it looks!

[@tommyssheep]

Hi !! Very beautiful pattern. For the brim you had 72 stitches in total.. then you did 1st round of the body with 72 sts, for 2nd round you added 1 extra st (73 total now). My question is - 73 is the magic number for the rest of the rounds?? Thank you 😊

This hat is absolutely glorious. It's actually much simpler to make than it seems. Martina uses an extra stitch followed by a decrease as a brilliant way to shift the stitches over in each round and create the swirl. When Martina lifts and holds a stitch while knitting the next one and then knits the held stitch, that creates a right-cross stitch. Another way to create a right-cross stitch is to knit the second stitch without removing it from the needle, then knit the first stitch, and then remove both stitches from the needle. Since part of the example video can be a bit confusing, these steps might be a bit gentler: 1. Create the ribbing rows as in the video example. 2. Start the swirl with a set-up row: Move the marker from the left needle to the right needle and repeat (knit 2, right-cross) around. 3. Continue the swirl: Remove the marker from the left needle, increase by lifting and twisting the strand between the needles up onto the left needle, place the marker on the right needle, knit 1, knit 2 together, right-cross, and then repeat (knit 2, right-cross) around. 4. Repeat round 3 to the desired height. 5. Finish off the hat as in the video example.

While what you’re saying may work, it isn’t what she did. The additional stitch added in the second round gives you an odd number of total stitches. Since you are doing an even number (4 stitch) repeat, your work will shift back a stitch each round. The extra stitch need only be added once and never removed. The two stitches she knitted together in the second round were because of the way she changed color, i.e. knitting old and new color together on the first stitch.

[@Elliria_home]

The second round has no increase. It consists just of (knit 2, right-cross) around. The third row does contain an increase, but it also contains a (knit 2 together) decrease in the same row. The increase is only used to shift the stitches over to the right by one and not to add any stitches to the row, so it's immediately gotten rid of with the decrease. There's never a row with an odd number of stitches except at the very beginning of the hat where you cast on an extra stitch that's used to join the cast-on row into a circle and is lost in the process. What I'm doing in the third row is: remove the marker, increase, place the marker, knit 1, decrease, right-cross, repeat (knit 2, right-cross) around. Each row always has an even number of stitches. If you repeat the third row over and over, each row will be shifted over by one stitch to the right, which creates the swirl.

Beautiful Beautiful (◕‿◕✿) Thank you for teaching us this beautiful beanie •❤︎•

[@tommyssheep]

Thaank youuuu ❤️

[@mariatinawi4259]

Very beautiful. 1 question, however. When adding 1 stitch, do I only do that for the 1st row? Do I decrease 1 stitch to make the 3rd row even numbers?

[@tommyssheep]

Thank you 🥰 yes add 1 stitch only on the beginning and during the joining in a round you lose one stitch.

[@wcl1764]

Hello nice pattern. If I use small 4/6mm how many st I need to do at the beginning?

[@tommyssheep]

Hello, oh I can’t say it if I did not try it with different size of needles or different yarn. You have to try it..

[@lydiaposey9808]

There’s a video on KZbin showing the math for hat making. Works for any materials, just need to swatch first so you can make the math work right for you (or for whomever you are making)

[@paulinechetty423]

Veey pretty!

[@tommyssheep]

Thank you 🥰

[@mandie325]

Could you make this pattern with crochet?

[@tommyssheep]

I can try it 😊 but it wouldn’t look exactly the same..

[@Chameleon-wq4ul]

Hi. When I start a new row, do I always have to ad 1 stitch or just in the first row?

[@tommyssheep]

Hi, no no only in the first row 😉

[@paulasuprahasegovic1758]

​@@tommyssheepI'm also confused with this extra stitch at the beginning of the second row. What to do with it at the end of the second row?

[@esalenchik]

@@paulasuprahasegovic1758You only add it once, so all Roku ds are worked with the odd number of stitches.

[@mgt44]

do you have the written pattern available?

[@tommyssheep]

No I do not have the written pattern :(

[@lavaughnjoshua6832]

Not sure what I'm doing wrong.... but my hat doesn't look the same. Thr pattern doesn't spiral goes straight up. Also always end up with odd# of sts. Any tips would be great. Do you have a written pattern?

[@tommyssheep]

That is the problem you have odd number..:/ Maybe you did a mistake during joining at the beggining..

[@amyrad4145]

You should use a light color , not dark one

[@natalieaaby7002]

When you begin to join the stitches in the round, I’m getting confused because it looks like you’re doing it left handed. Is the video showing a mirror image for us viewers? I’m left handed and connect them following your instructions but for a right handed person, wouldn’t the end of the cast on be held in your right hand instead? I keep getting goofed up. Thanks for the video

[@esalenchik]

This is Continental style knitting, holding the yarn in the left hand. Same fabric is created, just different method of achieving the same thing.

[@joanmoreland6425]

What weight is your yarn....4. 5. or 6.

[@tommyssheep]

There is no weight mentioned on the yarn...:(

[@esalenchik]

I think this is a chunky, so 5.

[@Riverside_Ranch]

If you stop the video and zoom in, it’s a size 6.

[@hanoufkhayal7645]

what is the name of this pattern

[@tommyssheep]

I don’t know..😃 sorry..

[@thatonegirlthatcanneversleep]

Falmouth hat is what I've seen others call it

[@tammyb.8981]

This looks so incredibly awkward. You can knit the second stitch on the needle, then the first stitch and drop them together.

[@annejenkins5771]

That will not be the same. You will be knitting the 4th st & letting it drop off before knitting the 3rd st.

[@tommyssheep]

You have answer in previous comment..;)
