Project Accomplished


Ok, so this hat started as a project that was picked out by my botfriend. He is allergic to wool, and he bought some Alpaca, and then he found this pattern online at www.rosi-g.com/soapyknitter. The pattern was fairly easy to follow, it woulf have helped if I printed the page with the shortcuts on it. I spent a little over a week on it, since the holidays kept us pretty busy.

Hat Pattern...Free


OK, so I have not posted any of my patterns, and for good reason, first, I don't know if I may need it later....second, I don't know how much traffic I want on my website....third, I'm not really the popular type, but I do like to Figure thins out. So, here is the pattern for the hat listed below.

Quick Bulky Hat
Materials:
Size 13 needles, (doublepoints, or circulars)
LionBrand Jiffy Thick and Quick (color of your choice)

Directions:
Using long tail cast on
CO 60 sts, place marker and join
1st Round: Knit
2nd Round: Purl
Repeat for 2 inches
Switch to Knit every round for another 3 inches
Start decrease rounds
Every 5th stitch, k2t, (knit 2 together)
until there are about 8 or so stiches remaining
cut the yarn about 8 inches from the hat and use a neddle to sew through remaining loops and then weave in the end of the yarn.
Enjoy!
