A great way to learn new knitting techniques is knitting a hat.
My hat patterns range from quick and easy to intricate and detailed. Beginners can learn their skills on basic
hat patterns, while more advanced crafters can knit complex stitch patterns and color work.
My free knitting patterns will let you create colorful and fun hats for all different skill levels.

the numbers; for instance 8 x 12 = your gauge
so you have to knit a tension swatch first
then choose your pattern with the right gauge

Knitting tip for hats with a brim;
knit the row, for the fold of the brim, with a larger size needles, this way it will fold naturally.

Repeating patterns, you have to calculate how many patterns you will need for one hat

Knit a tension swatch, with 1 pattern, measure the swatch,
divide your head circumference by the measurements of 1 pattern,
this is the amount of patterns you need for your hat, if it's not a whole number, just round up.
Your hat has to be between 20 and 25 cms high.  ( 8 and 10 inches )
If it is not the sufficient height, add rows, if it is too long, skip rows. Check while you are knitting !!
