Newborn Hat on the Loom


I just love my Loom sets. Another project for today is a simple pattern for a newborn sized hat made on the blue knifty knitter. The size of this hat depends on the weight of  the yarn, for this I used a 6 weight soft yarn.

  • E-wrap cast on and knit one row.
  •  Now do a round of purls. To purl you place your working yarn under the loop and pull it through from the top of the loop then you take the original loop off the peg and put the new one on.
  • Repeat one row each of e-wrap knit and purl. this ends the brim making a non rolling edge.
  • E-wrap knit 16 rows.
  • Take the yarn from the odd numbered pegs to the even and knit off.
  • Cut your yarn leaving a 12inch tail.
  • Thread the yarn through each remaining loop while removing them from the peg.
  • Pull tight and tie off. Trim the extra yarn and your hat is finished.
