HAT
Loom Configuration
Use the following pieces: (2) 28-hole semi-circular pieces, (4) 12-hole pieces.
Connect pieces to form an oval as follows: 28-hole semi-circular piece > 12-hole piece > 12-hole piece > 28-hole semi-circular piece > 12-hole piece > 12-hole piece.
Insert one large contrast color peg anywhere along loom set-up to mark beginning of round, skip one hole, then insert a large peg into the next hole. Continue placing large pegs into every other hole along each 28-hole semi-circular piece and each 12-hole piece - 52 working pegs placed.
NOTES
1.
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.
Follow loom manual instructions for SINGLE KNITTING for how to cast on, knit, purl, and bind off in the gathered method.
Beginning at contrast color peg, cast onto every peg.
Round 1: *Knit 2, purl 2; repeat from * to end of round.
Repeat Round 1 until piece measures about 2 1/2 in. (6.5 cm) from beginning.

NOTES
1. Wristers are knit as flat pieces and are then seamed.

3. Once you've cast on for the Wristers, begin working back and forth for single knitting.
4. Wristers are knit on only one side of the loom.
The loom is configured into a rectangle to make the loom easier to hold.

| I made only the hat in black using 100% wool.. It was a very easy pattern.. The picture makes the hat look small but it fits my head perfectly! Also too I used the adult size hat loom not the Martha Stewart loom because it was easier..
