Tomorrow I'll be teaching people to needle knit a hat from the top down.  

Anyone can join, but I'll only send my notes afterwords to the people who
sent me their email address. 

As a reminder, you'll need:

A ball of yarn in any weight you want;

A circular knitting needle or a set of double-pointed needles or a set of
flexi-needles;

A stitch marker;

A method for keeping track of your row and stitch count.

 

You need to know how to knit, purl if you want ribbing, and increase.  I use
the kfb increase, knit front and back.  If people don't know it, I will do
my best to teach it. 

 

If I'm using a circular needle, I prefer a 16-inch long one.  It's long
enough for Magic Loop, and it's the right size to knit a hat for an adult
without needing Magic Loop once the increasing is done.

 

The number to call tomorrow at 7:30 PM is 

chat line: 667-770-1685, code 614370.

 

See you then!

Tracy
