  • 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.

    Hat, adult; blue and grey

    Loom: Yellow KK Round (41 pegs)

    Stitch: E-wrap single for Denim Twist, double-yarn E-wrap for Grey Ragg
