Learn It

This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Circular Knit Lab: Hats Four Ways »

Instructions

I had a hard time using 2 circular needles. My yarn was getting too pilly from constant pulling and re-knitting (the pink yarn). I went ahead and purchased the 16" circular needles out of desperation lol! After doing my Rosie hat I'll revisit the technique of 2 circular needles with a cheaper thread to practice on.

Difficulty:

Category: Knitting

Type of item: Accessory

For: Unisex

Style: Traditional, Casual


Materials

Cathy Bates 16" Circular needles size 6mm/US10 Vintage Chunk (Berroco) Color 6110 Alpaca Love (Red Heart) Color 3580 Dusk

What are you most proud of?

Well, I didn't do too well with this hat even though its an easy knit. I wasn't consistent with my "Knit through the back loop" like I was with my sweet pea hat. I should of tightened it all up. It's good practice though and I learned a lot!

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Be patient and don't be afraid to make mistakes. I made plenty with this hat LOL!!!
