I made this up for the Nerd Wars on Ravelry. One of the challenges this month was to make something to go along with a Haiku (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haiku)
This is my project and I needed a pattern from ravelry so I am going to share :)
Hat fits a 21-22 inch head
For this I used Knit Picks Shine Worsted and some other knit picks that I think is discontinued, but any worsted weight will work.
Needles size 8 and 9mm circular and size 9 DPN's
With size 8 cast on 72sts join to knit in the round
Knit 2, purl 1 for about 1 inch
Using contrasting color and size 9 needles, knit 5 rows
switch to main color and knit 7 rows. Knit 5 more rows of contrasting color. Switch to main color and knit until piece measures 6.5 inches.
Decrease rounds
Rnd 1) Knit 7, knit 2 together around.
Rnd 2) Knit even
Rnd3) Knit 6, knit 2 together around
Rnd 4) Knit even
Rnd5) Knit 5, knit 2 together around
Rnd 6) Knit even
Rnd 7) Knit 4, knit 2 together around
Rnd 8) Knit 3, knit 2 together around
Rnd 9) Knit 2, knit 2 together around
Rnd 10) Knit 1, knit 2 together around
Rnd 11) knit 2 together around. Fasten off, weave trough remaining stitches and pull to close, weave in ends.
Awesome hat! And so appropriate for the season!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I thought so too :)
ReplyDeleteI need help on the pattern for your baby brimmed beanie!!! I saw that several comments addressed the same issue I'm having when I get to round 4 the stitch count doesn't match up. I'm VERY new to crocheting so I don't know if I am just doing something wrong or not, but it seems several other ladies had similar issues...could you help please! Thanks. : )
ReplyDeleteIt could be a typo. I will go back and check. I don't get the messages from the comments and can't always go back and check every single pattern for a comment. If you send me messages through the email it's better. :) I will go check tho.
