Knitted Beanie Hat Quick and Easy

[@bunnylover4773]

U r a sweet woman for sharing your hobbies with the next generation of kniters

[@enigma1326]

I wish to thank-you for posting this video. I made sure to copy the pattern down and I have been able to modify it for cable knitting and using the double seed stitch. I am using your pattern to help my mother learn how to make a hat as well.

[@JoannesWeb]

Wonderful!

[@TheLashera]

Love it. Thank you so much. I had never knitted a beanie now I will.

[@TisiphoneSeraph]

9 years and I still come back to this pattern year after year - thank you!

[@andreamagistrado2916]

This tutorial is so helpful, thank you. 😊

[@susanp8568]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful and well done tutorial. 🧶🧶👏

[@helgaestrada8424]

Joann for years I colected the left over yarn from all my scarfs I'd made. Thanks to you, all my daughters, my godson have beanies for the winter. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

[@JoannesWeb]

Awwww...how nice. Thank you!

[@conniedetevis2119]

Thank you for showing us how to decrease at the top of the beanie, makes it look finished. Thank you for all of your tips.

[@Ruffian144]

This is a great pattern, so versatile! I made the hat using three #4 yarns (held together as 1 yarn) + 10mm circular needles (knit flat) & cast on 37 stitches. Twice I used a #5 yarn + 8mm needles and cast on 43 stitches. Every time the hat came out fine. Thanks Joanne :)))

[@JoannesWeb]

Nice! Thank you for sharing your accomplishments. It's very important for other people to know you can add or subtract stitches on this pattern.

[@ISoloYouRelax]

I learned how to knit hats from you over five years ago and this is still my go to pattern and video any tine I have to make a hat. I do it on circular needles now with one less stitch and have changed the pattern a little for different circumstances and I absolutely love you for teaching me how to make hats.

[@tammykivi1344]

I wanted to thank you, I am not only a beginner at knitting, but I'm recovering from a massive stroke (almost 4yrs ago) . I really appreciated your video tutorial and I made my First hat.....Going to give it to my husband for Christmas, and I'm on my way to # 2! Thank you!

[@JoannesWeb]

Tammy Kivi I am sure you will be better every day. Knitting is very therapeutic. It's relaxing and a sort of meditation. So glad you are making your gifts. Your husband will appreciate it! Merry Christmas!

[@martina53tt]

I have been knitting a scarf(rib) for a friend, and I had wool left, so I looked for a Beanie and I found your one, I just fineshed the last row, you explained it so well, I was worried about the last rows, but no problem, it looks fantastic, thank you.

[@masuganut2082]

Thank you!!!! I haven’t mastered knitting in the round on 16 inch needles which is what you need when you do hats and I want to make hats as gifts. My goodness ladies this is so perfect because it’s so professionally done you can’t even tell it was knit flat and seamed! You saved me! Thank you thank you. I can’t wait to show my mother who also knits!!

[@oddhex]

Just finished the hat. I literally started knitting like two weeks ago and I decided a hat would be my next project after knitting a scarf. This was really easy to follow but I always ended up with 2 knit at the end, I'm pretty sure I ate some stitches but oh well, I'm a newbie! I think I finished it with about 100 yards because my skein was 175 and I have some left over. Thank you for being so easy to follow!

[@JoannesWeb]

Happy to have you as a knitter in my channel. Thank you.

[@joycezzz100]

I enjoy veiwing the making of the hat,looks real easy

[@TEMAustin]

Thank you for sharing this lovely toque. My grandson will love it!

[@topaz1x]

I haven't knitted in years and I just watched your video. I love the invisible seam! Thank you so very much for helping!

[@sararosexoxo]

Hi Joanne, I'm a 23yr old preschool teacher from south florida who just recently began knitting. It has been helping me relax, even though many of my friends have been calling me "an old lady." Your videos are so helpful step-by-step for me to follow. Thank you!!! I just started on a hat for my boyfriend using this tutorial, and so far it is looking great. I hope it looks as nice as yours when it is complete, as i have never made a hat before. I will let you know when im done :) sincerely, Sara

[@JoannesWeb]

Good for you! These are really nice. I have a knitting class group and each person makes one to take to people that are getting chemotherapy. They love them! (the nurses too) You can make them with thinner cotton yarn for the summer. It has been very windy here lately and a thin hat makes the flying hair stay! lol Happiness is contagious! Be well.

[@jamesv2725]

Joanne, you are the best.I am not a knitter but after watching this video I've decided to knit.You made it look so simple. Thanks a million Joanne.

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you!

[@003cinnie]

I have learned so much from watching your videos! I am a new knitter and need all the help I can get! Your instructions are very precise and clear, thank you so very much for sharing your abundant knitting experience! Donna

[@timeaocsai2718]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!! I am so happy to find this page! Here in Hungary everybody knits hats with four sticks! I was so sad because I cannot handle four sticks! But I wanted to knit a hat for my husband. Now, I can make it with two sticks! Thanks a lot dear Joanne!!!!!!!!

[@jebbyragavan1397]

Thanks so much Joanne! So It's around 150 metres.... I really like the way you do the finishing part - threading the last 5 sts into a blunt sewing needle and knotting off; also I like the way you stitch the sides to make it round (a beanie) - you are doing everything very neatly, which I like very much. Thanks a lot for this tute, and look forward to many more to come. God Bless.

[@wtftastic]

Thank you for showing how to seam the hat together as well- I've had a really hard time finding good visual explanations of how the seams are supposed to work on a flat knitted hat. Yours look great and I hope to try it out!

[@kknola]

thank you so much! This is the first time that I have seen such a clear demo and explanation of an invisible seam, Thank you for sharing, it is like having you sit next to me and teach me to knit. Love it

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you, dear lady. So good to know we are clear on our videos. Thank you for your preference.

[@elizabethudoh5833]

Your videos are so easy to follow, I made my 2yr old son this hat just used 4 instead of 6 inches, he looks adorable.

[@tayshaanne]

Dear Joanne: Today my 10 year old Grandaughter asked me if I could knit her a beanie hat as it's very in at her school..she is really cute in hat. So I went on the web to find a pattern..Yours was the easiest instructions I could fine..I can knit , but only basic..This pattern will be so easiest. Now we are going out to find some nice wool.Her choice and I bet I can knit this over the weekend.. Thank you very much

[@sdignadice]

Thank you so much for these tutorials, I learned a lot . I learned knitting a few years back but through your tutorials I am more eager to try new projects because I can readily look up any questions I have in your website and your you tube tutorials. Thanks , keep up the good work. It's highly appreciated. God bless you .

[@charlottejpriestley8934]

I made two of them as well and used 100 and 115 cast on because I have a big head obviously and I like them loose. . lol. They are warm and super comfy. I made one to match a scarf I bought while in Britain. Red , white and blue plaid was the scarf so I did a whiteish. not super white and one in navy blue. thanks. They are one of the easiest. Just sat there watching a series on Netflix and whipped them up!

[@JoannesWeb]

You are amazing too! I believe it takes one to know one! It's a wonderful legacy what mothers and grandmothers leave us. Knowing how to knit. My mother taught me when I was 5! Of course, I designed my own things because I learned how to knit before I knew how to read. LOL. Have a happy time knitting. It's very relaxing and creative. You already crochet, so your fingers have memory skills already. It helps!. Have a Happy New year!

[@rosemariewebber8874]

I AM SO HAPPY THAT I HAVE FOUND YOU JOANNE, YOU ARE SUCH AN INSPIRATION to me as I have only just started knitting. You are now in My Favorites and please keep us beginners feeling like we will one day be as confident as you are. Cheers Rose

[@imeldaloimand6096]

I finally finished my first hat thanks to you !

[@JoannesWeb]

OK! So nice to hear things like this! Have a wonderful week.

[@bonniehartwick5461]

love your video's, you two are funny and full of information.thank you ☺

[@onebrneyedbeauty1]

I can't wait to make this hat! I have been looking for one that is made with only two needles because I find it hard using the ones that are joined together!

[@JoannesWeb]

I know! This is an easy one. Many people like it. Thank you!

[@Whitemoonwolf132]

I'm a beginner at knitting and I've been wanting to make a hat for a while. This video was extraordinarily helpful, especially since I haven't gotten the knit "shorthand" to memory yet. I'm really excited to start this project. :) I can't wait to peruse your channel for more fun things to knit!

[@erikalopez8329]

I just did this beanie and it turned out beautiful. Thank you, thank you.

[@sharonsmith7736]

Joanne, Thank you so much for your videos. I can't tell you how many of these hats I made for Christmas this year. I'm returning to knitting after putting it down for years but your videos are helping me get back into it with zeal. I enjoy starting a new project and seeing it finished and someone getting use of it. You're a great teacher you make instructions very clear. Sharon

[@JoannesWeb]

Sharon Smith Thank you very much for your comment, Sharon. I love reading notes like yours!

[@gangulous8984]

the instructions were confusing at first, but then as i watched, i realised everything! thank you so much for teaching me this :D ive been struggling to find a way to knit a sweater, but it seems too hard, then i came across your video and i have an urge to knit beanies now! thank you so much :D x

[@13christian73]

Just made this and it's sooo cute. I used thicker needles and fewer stitches and wound up with a super cute slouchy hat. Great first project imo

[@JoannesWeb]

13christian73 OK! Love your comment! So good to know!

[@littlegia731]

I love creating ribbed beanies! However I prefer to knit them on circular needles. Great informative video.

[@gemmanewman9846]

Thank you so much my Toddler love's his new hat. It wasnt as hard as I thought it would be.

[@jessicawood688]

Thank you for the great vid. I just took up knitting because I wanted to make cool hats and scarves for my family. I look forward to trying this out.

[@jennyv2514]

I just finished this hat. What a great pattern, thanks! I will be using it again. I've looked at some of your other youtube videos and you demonstrate everything so well. You have a patient, soothing way about you that I find helps in my knitting education. I will be checking out more of your videos, I think the slippers will be next!

[@JoannesWeb]

God bless you too dear. I am very happy to know we are helping! You are so sweet!. Makes me want to do more! Be well!

[@kmkehrwald]

You are amazing! I'm so excited to make this hat! My Grandmother is 94 and she just taught me the basic knit/purl stitches about a month ago. I've been practicing and this looks like something I'd be able to whip up. Most of the patterns I want to try are way above my current skill level. (I'm not used to that as I've been crocheting for about 10 years so I can pretty much follow any written pattern I find!) My Grandma lives about 3 hours away so I'll be watching more of your videos. Thank you!!

[@jillibeans57]

I finally got around to making my first hat and decided to try this pattern before venturing on to circular or dpn's. It turned out great! Thank YOU for giving such clear and easy to follow instructions!

[@JoannesWeb]

OK! So happy to know it came out nice. Thank YOU for watching and following us!

[@pimenlu100]

Made a beanie from your instructions and it came out great, you are excellent at giving instructions and showing how its done, bravo !!

[@JoannesWeb]

Inspired is a very creative word. Knitting is wonderful. Go for it! Be well!

[@jenellsaphid]

I'm enjoying trying this... Not too experienced so I don't expect it to turn out as well as yours but I learned how to purl and I'm excited to see what I get!

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you Louise! What a sweet heart! Big hug.

[@anudhiconnolly674]

Your instructions are excellent!

[@imagegirl7]

I appreciate your videos so much! I had been trying to teach myself to knit and struggled with a simple potholder until I found your channel. Now I have made 2 of these hats. Thank you thank you

[@autumnharrington746]

Thank you ladies for this awesome easy to follow videos. It's helped me make a lot of Christmas presents this year!

[@arlenewillans2989]

Joanne, you are the very best I enjoy your videos. You make me so happy Thank you and may God in Heaven bless you A big hug xx

[@paulinepaulin1484]

I love how easy you show how to knit this wonderful beanie... and you're using straight knitting needles! I've been looking for a video that uses straight knitting needles... thank you for this very helpful video.. i love it!

[@JoannesWeb]

I am glad you watched the video. The instructions don't make much sense without seeing how it's done. That's why we are here! It's not very hard to knit a sweater. We will be posting instructions for that too. You may start with 2 rectangles and make a tunic, before making a sweater. Go little by little. We have pictures of the Fan and Feather tunic.I'll have to write instructions and make a video, for people that are not quite ready for a sweater. Thanks much.

[@katgore99]

I just completed this hat and love it thank you so much!!

[@VidKatMA1]

I found you I FOUND YOU! This was the pattern I chose to knit my first few hats! I so Love this decreased pattern! I made a wee hat for our David statue on the bar, a black hat with a few pink stripes for me for work, and two baby soft Pink hats that I added a Pink Ribbon to and gifted to the breast cancer chemo center. I want to knit two more for them this year and looked all over for this pattern as I forgot to save it in my Things I have made file! I almost gave UP but one more click...and voila! I wish I could show you the pix of all my hats and Thank You for this wonderful tutorial. So easy to follow and you have a pleasing voice. :)

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you! Keep up the good work!

I've been looking for a video like this all day! I could only find ones with looms or with crocheting! This hat looks amazing, and GREAT instructions and teacher! Thank you so much @JoannesWeb !

[@JoannesWeb]

Baylee Walsh Oh my goodness! I love the cheers! Thank you. Yes, this one is a favorite of many. So glad you found us! Be well. Happy Holidays.

[@valoriec]

I've learned so much from you! Thank you so very much for your videos.

[@JoannesWeb]

You are welcome. And yes, they are very in! A worsted yarn is best. (#4). Thanks for visiting.

[@kimstanley9850]

New subscriber. Can't wait to make this hat, because of your clear and precise instructions. I'm thinking of making it with #6 bulky yarn and #13 knitting needles. At the moment, that is all I have in my stash. Thanks so much!

[@JoannesWeb]

Make sure to knit with less amount of stitches. Otherwise your hat will be too big.

[@kimstanley9850]

JoannesWeb Thanks for the suggestion. I have some math to do. 😬 I'll let you know how it turns out.

[@jebbyragavan1397]

Hello Joanne, Thank you SO MUCH for giving me the Crochet Hook chart with Metric/UK/US sizes. God Bless.

[@whitebellieddorks]

i just knit one of these for my boyfriend and it turned out beautiful :)

[@zzbreezy7814]

[@whitebellieddorks]

i dont really have a good camera or anything like that

[@zzbreezy7814]

+whitebellieddorks oh ok

[@DinoLife2007]

I cant wait to finish my hat...I just started. Thanks for the video :)

[@JoannesWeb]

Hi Joseph. I don't know why I cant see your question here. But you were asking that since you will be using multiple colors for your beanie, should you do it differently or change anything. No dear, you can change colors at any time, and your knit stitches will be on the right side. You don't need to do anything different. Of course, the change of colors will show on the purl stitches and that's OK. Happy to know you are being creative!

[@zooieyaj04]

I'm so excited! i'll be home from college two weeks before Christmas and this tutorial is perfect for making my gifts for my brothers! Thanks!!!

[@anamikaangelsingh]

Thanks for this pattern, and your excellent instruction.

[@JoannesWeb]

I believe many people need the instructions in Spanish, so we will be doing that, starting January. Thank you! Me parece que muchas personas quieren las instrucciones de tejido en Espaniol. Asi es que comenzaremos a hacer eso en Enero. Gracias!

[@brainiacish]

Your knitting is so beautiful!! I love it!

[@anniechristina2495]

Thank you so much for the video. This is really gonna help me out knitting a hat.

[@silenta6507]

This was very helpful thank you so much for the pattern I can't wait to start

[@JoannesWeb]

Alexis Flanagan Thank you! So glad we could help!

[@JoannesWeb]

Hello dear Nazokat. It doesn't matter how many rows you knit. What is important is that you have the 6 1/2 inches before you start taking off stitches. Every person knits differently, so it would be very difficult to tell you how many rows. Now, if you want your hat to have a brim, (a piece that turns over on the edge), you can add about 3 inches. Thank you for your interest in our website tutorials! Be well.

[@KhaoticTano]

Ma'am you rock. Thank you for this.

[@JoannesWeb]

Cookie Acosta OK!!!!!! Love comments like this! Thank you! Love you too!

[@kathychristopher1688]

love your videos when I need to learn a new stitch I watch your videos.😄

[@JoannesWeb]

A bit of a refresher of last year's HOLIDAY SPECIAL playlist: Knitted Beanie Hat Quick and Easy #Crochet #DIY #Gifts

[@xionwhite]

JoannesWeb Hello I noticed that you knit by rows which I really don't get lol. So what my question is how do you count by rows?

[@Ababy145]

I'm so thankful for your videos! Because of you I've learned how to knit! I just finished my first beanie hat from this pattern and it turned out great!! Thank you Joanne :)

[@JoannesWeb]

Happy to know you like it! Be well!

[@mzmelody637]

I've been looking for instructions how to knit this without a loom. I'll be trying this out. Thank you. =)

[@JoannesWeb]

mzmelody637 This is easy. You'll love it!

[@JoannesWeb]

Hola amiga querida. Ana se cambio a un apartamento en el centro y tengo que hacer cita con ella para hacer videos. Tengo varias personas que los quieren en Espaniol. Ya me animaste. Un abrazote.

[@katherinelamean2973]

ive tried to do things like this before and ive never been able to do it, im still only a beginner, but i followed this video and it came out perfect! by far the best video about this subject ive seen!!

[@JoannesWeb]

Katherine LaMean So happy I was able to be clear. Thank you for your comment.

[@JoannesWeb]

Yes dear. But be aware that you will need a thicker yarn. This is made with worsted yarn (#4). You will need a thicker yarn, maybe a 5. Thank you for watching.

[@danusmum]

You are a sweet heart.... Thinking to make this hat for my son.

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you! Please make it for your son. It's easy and nice.

[@thelittleknitter4411]

hello, that was so neat and tidy how you finished off the beanie, I have learnt now how to do it the right way by following your steps and now my hats will look better thanks to you , many thanks from the U.K

[@mandyajel]

im subscribing to your channel, your instructions are so clear and easy to follow for someone like me who has only just started to self teach knitting, I wanted to knit my self a scarf and hat as my first projects, im going to practice the pattern first and then hop to it =] thank you so much for posting this video x

[@TheChinadoll813]

You make it look so easy!!

[@eleftheriakat]

It really looks easy to be done - i will surely try it!!!

[@micey41]

Thanks so much just finished my first one, and now on my second. Thanks again

[@JoannesWeb]

Thank you too.

[@JoannesWeb]

No problem. Here it is: Row 1-Knit 3, purl 3, until the end of the row and end with knit 1. Row 2-Purl 1, knit 3, purl 3 until the end of the row. Repeat these 2 rows until you have 6 1/2 inches. You cam make it longer if you want to fold the hat. Row 3 is the same as row 1. You start with knit 3. You want all your stitches to make a k3, p3 ribbing. Be well!

[@vmcd8784]

Just made this so easy great instructions!

[@mammab1203]

I'm trying to learn how to knit. You move a bit fast for me, but if I watch about 100 times, I think I can get it. You have good instructions, I just had to look up what a purl was as opposed to a knit.

[@JoannesWeb]

Good for you! It's a good idea to start with an only knit project. Then you make a swatch with only purl (It will turn out looking as if you knit every row). Then you can make a project like this. Be well!

[@conniedalton5360]

thank u so much for ur videos. I can knit a hat now. 😆

[@adspeed7292005]

I feel so inspired! This hat is very beautiful, so nicely made. I just recently started knitting, and hats and the like seemed intimidating, but I feel like giving it a try after finding your channel. :)

[@JoannesWeb]

No dear. I used 79 stitches. With 2 yarns together. You can use a thicker yarn. # 4 or 5. Thanks for getting in touch.
