Description: This step-by-step tutorial shows you how to knit an easy elastic hat (with ribbed stitch for the bottom and top part, and smooth sand stitch for the body part) using a round loom. So, if you have never loom knitted before, this project is perfect for you! And if you are already a loom knitter, this video tutorial may help you guide your family and friends on how to start with your beloved hobby. Important Note: I made this hat for a 4-year-old girl, so that's why I used the 36-peg round loom and 50g (1.75Oz) of yarn. If you want to make an adult-size hat, I recommend you to use the 41-peg loom and 100g (3.5Oz) of yarn to work a knitting height of about 24cm (9.5"). In this tutorial you will learn: - How to start your hat (how to cast on stitches on the loom) - How to knit an elastic brim (how to work e-wrap knit stitches and purl stitches) - How to work the smooth sand stitch on the round - How to take your work out of the loom and close the hat (how to bind off) - How to attach a faux fur pom pom on the top Index of Contents: [00:00] - Introduction [00:51] - Casting on [02:26] - Knitting the hat's brim [05:17] - Knitting the body's Round A [06:12] - Knitting the body's Round B [06:51] - Repeating Rounds A & B [07:34] - Knitting the hat's top part [08:25] - Binding off [10:08] - Weaving in [11:14] - Adding a pompom LOOM: The loom I use in this project is a 36-peg XL gauge round loom, because I wanted to make a child-size hat. If you want to make a preemie or newborn hat, I suggest you to use the 24-peg round loom. If you want to make a baby hat, then you better use the 31-peg loom. And use the 41-peg loom for adults. YARN: The yarn I use here is a bulky weight yarn (size #6). If your thread is thinner than mine (a medium weight yarn), I recommend you to use 2 strands at the same time. For this project, I used 50g (1.75Oz) approx. of a yarn called Valeria di Roma Alaska.
