Loom Knit Simple Hat
Lion Brand® Martha Stewart CraftsTM/MC Alpaca Blend
GAUGE: 12 stitches = about 4 in. (10 cm)
EXACT GAUGE IS NOT ESSENTIAL TO THIS PROJECT.
NOTES: 1. Hat is knit in the round.
2. The instructions provided in the loom manual for casting on are the same for both flat knitting and knitting in the round (when you make a tube). These instructions are listed under the heading of SINGLE KNITTING.
3. Once you've cast on for the Hat, continue knitting in a clockwise direction around loom for single knitting in the round.
4. A contrast color peg is used to mark the beginning of each round for the Hat.

| Loom Knit Simple Hat Reviewed by Lindsay Hill on 2013-04-14 |

This hat pictured is cute. Mine didn't turn out like this at all! Now, I'm just beginning but I followed the loom set up instructions for this & you could tell it was just too big (width). This pattern appeared more like a cowl neck scarf if you didn't do a gathered type bind off.
