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

[Powers, Terry (NIH/NCI) [E]]

 For each section, move loop to the left to next peg, for each of the for requested pegs.  Knit these for off.  E-wrap all pegs with loops on them, and the empty pegs, bring yarn behind peg, to the next peg.
You are right, you will have gaps in your work.  
Repeat for the last 2 sets of decreases.

These gaps will begathered in your work and hardly visible, when you take it off the loom.

Terry P.

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
