The basic hat pattern I convert to is. |
Cast on 56 (60)sts. I use 4 dp needles size 9 for Band and size 8 for rest of hat |
Pattern :K2 P2 for 1 1/2 inches |
Then do stockingstick until 4" from beginning |
For decreasing I just divide sts by 8 then it gives me my start so the hat is decreased evenly. (If making smaller size start with the 3rd row) | |
Dec row 1" = K6 k2tog all the way around |
2nd row = Knit |
3rd row = K5 K2 tog all around. |
4th row = Knit |
5th row = K4 K2tog all around, |
6th row = k3 k2tog all around |
7th row = Knit |
8th row = K2 K2tog all around. |
9th row = K2tog all around. |
Break yarn and then thread through remaining stitches |
Weave in ends. |
I've made so many hats now they become second nature. But still fun to make with changing the colors . |
Feel free to use the pattern. That means all of you are welcome to use my pattern I just love how easy it is to make. I don't like sewing up seams so really had to disciple myself to do the 2 needle booties. |

I'm just starting to learn how to do hats.. the finishing part has me stumped but I hope I'll learn and get better soon.
Thanks for sharing your pattern here. I want to make some simple but nice looking preemie items and they can be hard to find.
I like your items!
:-)
