Child Hat Knitting Pattern
This
Child Hat Knitting pattern looks great on both boys and girls. The
detail in the design makes this pattern a suitable choice for boys and
girls.
This
design uses a SKPO (slip, knit, pass
slipped stitch over)
What
next?
Firstly Knit in the
round on size
eight sixteen-inch circular needles and use DPNs for decreasing.
Next
Cast on a multiple of eleven stitches which is also an even number.
When deciding how many stitches to cast on 88 should be perfect for
most knitters.
You
should know work the band in
two x two "rib knit" for around one inch. When making this hat some
people choose to do a row of purled stitches. This remains entirely up
to you.
