Knitting Mania!

October 11, 2010 babi knitting art club hat pattern free

The other day a friend brought me a book called “The Knitting Club” and as I was reading it, I had this urge to learn how to knit.
I asked a my friend Kate to come and help me with a project.
I already knew how to purl and knit and apparently these are pillas of the knitting art.
So Kate, thought me how to read the patterns and I picked my first project.
I knit a hat for my daugther that took me 5 days!
Yeap, It really did, BUT after that, I went to the wool store in town and got this beautiful pattern for a cozy hat, which I already made two of them and I am working on the third. They are quick, easy and really look nice.
Here is pattern:

Material:

200 grams of skein Woolly Bully (very chunky wool)

10mm needles

For Adult size:

Cast on 48 stitches

Start with purl row and work 3 rows of Stoking Stitch (1 knit, 1 purl)

1 purl row, 1 knit row 1p row, 1k row, 2 purls rows, 1 k row, 1 p row

1 purl row, 1 k row, 1p row, 1k row.

2 purl row, 1k row, 1p row

2knits row

Now for decreasing;

Knit two stitches together all the way to the end
