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.

Loom: Green KK Round (36 pegs)
Yarn: Red Heart, Worsted Medium 5oz, Fleck (color 4334)
Stitch: E-wrap, double-yarn

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.

This item started its life out as a scarf, but ended as a potholder/placement.

Loom: Yellow KK Long (36 pegs)
Yarn: Lion Brand, Jiffy Thick & Quick (5oz), Berkshires (Color 214)
Stitch: Double-knit

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.

This was my very first project using the KK long loom and the yarn used (lamb wool blend) is very soft and warm.

Loom: Yellow KK Long Loom, 36 pegs (38 with anchor pegs)
Yarn: Lion Brand, Wool-Ease (3oz), Denim Twist (color 194)
Stitch: double-knit
