Yellow Hat

This is a hat I made for Chris’s mom for the winter. Yellow is her favorite color, and I wanted to do something that wasn’t just plain yellow.

• Stitch: Double-yarn e-wrap

Michael’s (neighbor) hat

I have been working on an additional hat for my neighbors kiddies, and finished this one (for Michael) this evening. I’m a fan of stripes it seems.

Details coming soon.

Finished tube scarf

Well I finally finished my scarf (this one is for me), and it ended up being about 75 inches long. It wraps my neck a couple of times.

I’m not completely happy with the bind off (right side), but it gives me something to work on and perfect.

Chris’s hat (adult; blue and white)

After completing the scarf for Chris I wanted to make a hat to match. The first attempt was made on the Green KK Round Loom with a single e-wrap, and was too stretchy. The following was made with a thick yarn (single e-wrap), with the stripe consisting of a double-yarn e-wrap.

WIP: Tube scarf

I’ve been working on a tube scarf for the last week, and thought I would post pics of it’s current status.

The image on the left was taken with a flash, and there was no flash used on the right. The first end has a slight “brim” of six rows (folded) for weight. I’m still trying to ascertain how I will do the same effect at the other end.

Youth hat, green & white

I have started to do some hats for my neighbor’s kids, and here is the first one that I’ve completed.

Loom: Red KK Round (31 pegs)
Yarn: Lion Brand, Wool-Ease Worsted Medium, Wheat (color 402); Lion Brand, Wool-Ease Worsted Medium, Forest Green Heather (color 180)
Stitch: E-wrap, double-yarn

Hat, double yarn (12/28)

After completing my striped hat, I created this hat using two strands of yarn on the green round loom. I also followed a standard “pattern” for a hat that I found on one of the mailing lists which suggested 14 rows (folded to form a 7 row brim), and then 24 rows from the top of the brim to the top of the hat. This hat has a closer knit to it (due to the double yarn), and will be the standard for future hat projects.

Yarn: Red Heart, Worsted Medium 5oz, Fleck (color 4334)
Stitch: E-wrap, double-yarn

Hat, striped

I completed this hat on Christmas Day as family slept and watched movies. I had just finished the multi-color hat, and wanted to try a single strand of yarn knit for a hat to see how it turned out.

Loom: Green KK Round (36 pegs)
Yarn: Lion Brand, Wool-Ease worsted Weight (3oz), Wheat (Color 402) – primary color; Lion Brand, Wool-Ease (3oz), Denim Twist (color 194) – stripe color
Stitch: E-wrap, single

Notes: This hat is a lot looser than the multi-color hat given the yarn used. Next hat will be double yarn.

Multi-color hat (first attempt)

My first hat on the knitting loom.

Loom: Green KK Round (36 pegs)
Yarn: Lion Brand, Jiffy Thick & Quick (5oz), Berkshires (Color 214)
Stitch: E-wrap

Notes: The thick and quick yarn does provide a very thick effect for the hat, however it also affects the “stretch factor” of the brim.
