My first knit hats…

Sewing/Crochet

So I learned how to crochet hats a few years ago when I started Brimming with Love, but I have never been able to knit. I just always figured that one hand was easier to work with than two. Then I discovered the lovely invention of the round knitting loom (the Knifty Knitter). Too cool! I made these two hats in one sitting.

I bought the set of 4 round looms with a coupon at Michaels (great deal for around $8). Don’t let the sizes fool you. Since the red one was roughly the circumference of my head, I tested it out on the first hat.

The result was the hat on the right (it’s questionable, but it just might fit a 2 year old.) The green loom is only slightly larger than the red, but produces a nice average size adult hat. I think this hat pattern would look great with some pretty variegated yarn. I’ll have to try that next. :)

    These are really cute. You’ll have to teach me how to do this next time I come.
    As for the small one, there are a lot of children with leukemia who could use those. You might want to investigate the next time you deliver hats to the adult cancer center.
    Love you.
