[Nfb-krafters-korner] Decreasing the crown of a hat

[minh ha]

Cathy and Jill,

I understand the part about dividing the loom into sections to
decrease the hat, but I don't get how to skip wrapping the empty pegs
when I go back around. Do I just bring the yarn behind the empty pegs?
When I do this, there's just a long piece of yar passing behind the
pegs. Is this how it's supposed to look?

Thanks for your help
Minh
