Portia,
I believe Terry is talking about a beanie class I taught.  It is a pattern
by Kristin Mangus of Good knit kisses.  
In the section that I am including below, She is using a 24 peg loom for a
baby hat.  You will have to work out your pegs for a larger loom.  She
basically looks at the loom in 4 sections.  Maybe this will help.

15.We are going to divide our loom visually into 4 sections (6 pegs in each
section for a 24 peg loom). In round 1 of this section we will move the 2nd
peg loop over to the 1st peg.  Do not KO at this time.  Move to the next
section and do this again. Repeat 2 more times.  Now KO.  Wrap all remaining
pegs again & KO. This completes hat Row 27. (You should have 20 pegs
remaining).
16.Now take peg 4 over to peg 3 and wait to KO.  Repeat for all 4 sections.
KO all four pegs.  Wrap all remaining pegs & KO. This complete Row 28. (You
should have 16 pegs remaining).
17.Now take peg 6 over to peg 5 and wait to KO.  Repeat for all 4 sections.
KO all four pegs.  Wrap all remaining pegs & KO.  This complete Row 29. (You
should have 12 pegs remaining).
18. CAST OFF with draw string method.  

Jill

hmm!
 Thanks so much I will wait to hear from her.

 I recently lost a lot of my email addresses so I will wait to hear from
her to respond back.

 or if anybody else has any ideas, please share them.
