I successfully knitted a hat for the first time with your tutorial! I really wanted to give something handmade to my friend's baby😊 Thank you so much for this tutorial💕
Very easy and cute! Just one thing though, the ribbing instructions here are wrong. To get ribbing on straight needles and with this number of stitches, you have to K2 P2 on the odd rows and P2 K2 on the even rows. Found out the hard way. Otherwise it came out exactly the right size and shape.
Rachael Brinegar-You were right! I started the hat over again, following your recommendations, and then the ribbing was perfect. Thanks so much for explaining the error in the pattern and how to fix it!
Thank you very much for this great video. This was my first ever knitting project for my son to be in a couple of days 👶🏻🙏🏻🥰 Very easy to follow! I'm definitely going to come back to your channel 😉
Joy Griffiths I do have a written pattern on my blog the link is in the description it has all the information in the video. If you’re able to you can print it off. I hope this helps
Hello this is lovely, unfortunately my browser won’t let me access written instructions :( anything else I can do to access written instructions? God bless you
Vee Crossley It should be K2, P2 and usually if you work with multiples of 4 stitches you’ll end with P2. If not you’ll end with K2. I should have made this clear in the video but the aim was to make a rib of 6 rows with the pattern of K2, P2. I’m sorry for any problems you’ve had.
Would it matter if I alter the ribbing on this to be k1, p1 rather then k2, p2? I've knitted a cardigan and wanted the ribbing to match. If I do it that way will it make a difference to the sizing? Thank you
Hi! I’m new to knitting and I’m definitely going to use this tutorial! If I have size 4mm needles instead of 3.75, should I still cast on the same number of stitches? Or less? And same number of rows? Thanks!
I started this but the 66 stitches doesn’t work for the K2 P2 ribbing, it goes out of sync. I saw another comment saying the stitches need to be in multiples of 4, but 66 isn’t a multiple of 4. Would 64 stitches or 68 be better?? But then would that throw off the reduction rows? I’m so confused 😭
AStarToSteerBy yes that is correct you do need 66 sts for this hat size any more stitches would make it too big and any less stitches would make it a little too small but the way I explained and worded it was wrong and I didn’t realise until I started getting these comment I do apologise for the confusion. To clarify you do need a multiple of 4 stitches if you want a flush k2p2 pattern the part I didn’t mention is because I’m using only 66 stitches when you start the second row you will start with P2,K2 instead of k2,p2....To make it more clearer ...Row 1 k2, p2 repeat these 4 stitches to the end of the row. Row 2 p2, k2 repeat these 4 stitches to the end of the row. Repeat rows 1 and 2 until desired rib length. I hope that made it easier to follow I may upload an updated video unfortunately I’m struggling with time at the moment but if I can help you with anything else please leave me a message and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can. Thanks for watching x
@@mayajordan893 the ribbing is the only part that has confused people all you need to do is k2, p2 to the end of the row. Your last stitch will be k2. The next row will start with p2. Just knit on the knits and purl on the purls. I wouldn’t recommend add or reducing the stitches.
This was so helpful as I have little know how with kitting and found your pattern and video link so great you kept having to be rewound lots but you didn't get up set with me once !! Gail
I've never had so many issues with a tutorial... I'm using the right needles and everything and I'm not exactly a beginner. The finished hat looks nothing like is implied it should. It's not as big, but it's wider, and it doesn't have the same shape. I do know what I'm doing when it comes to knitting, so I'm very confused.
I just worked this up. Despite me going up a needle size and after adding two extra rows before decreasing this seems exceptionally small for a new born.
It's All Okay With CJ!! Hi there is a 0-3 month size if you’re looking for something bigger but this size is for a newborn out of the hospital. It’s a base pattern so you can add more stitches and increase some rows and it should make it bigger. You can follow the exact pattern and use a slight thicker yarn and bigger needles to get a bigger hat. I hope this helps :)
@@BundleInABasket I would almost argue thqt this is more so fit for a preemie than it is 0 to 3 months. I wish I could share the picture in this comment section so I could share my finished project with you. My girls need baby hats for their dolls so this hat will most likely go to them. Thanks for responding. ☺
It's All Okay With CJ!! This would be small for a 0-3 month baby I have another video for 0-3 months. This hat is for the first week to a month after baby is born. I have my website where you can upload your work to www.bundleinabasket.com or my email at info@bundleinabasket.com or send it to my DMs on Instagram @bundle.in.a.basket I always love seeing people’s finished work!
Hi, love this hat, but I would like to make it in 2 colours like you 3-6 hat with dpns. I don't know how to use dpns, could you please let me know how to make this hat with 2 colours? Thanks.
Look for a video that instructs how to do a color change. You don't need dpns, you just start a new color on a new row. It should be really easy because this is knitted flat, you can start and end at any row you want.
Jacqueline Tanner I have a video on a 3-6 months hat. The hat should be stretchy enough to fit up to 12 months but if you would like you can add a few more stitches when you cast on and follow the rest of the video as normal. I hope this helps x 3-6 months video ua-cam.com/video/GEJscUCnlCc/v-deo.html
Casting on 66 stitches and working K2 P2 will not result in a knitted rib pattern. I have learned that in order to create a 2x2 rib, you must begin with a multiple of 4 cast on stitches. Therefore, you have to cast on either 64 or 68. Casting on 66 and working K2 P2 as instructed will not work.
You do a lovely job. I just wish you could SLOW DOWN and explain more what You are doing so that beginners could catch on. It’s nearly impossible to follow as a beginner.
Not super happy with this pattern. I made it up and it came out the way it should have so thats good. However the size is off. It only came out to 10cm which i see is listed. I looked it up the average length for a newborn is more low 13cm. This size is a premie. Which is 10-11. That should be adjusted in the heading. So now i have a hat that won't fit. Guess i'll gift it.
Some music or narrative would be better, however I'm going to try this for my very prematurely born grand daughter by freezing the screen and writing the pattern down!!
In order to have a clean looking 2x2 ribbing after you sew it up you do need the 66 Stitches because when you sew it up you take the first knit and then the last knit stitch together with that it hides them in the seam and then creates the perfect ribbing you must use the mattress stitch to achieve it I’ve done it multiple times it works
I can’t hear you talking. How am I supposed to know what you are doing when you fail to explain and give a description on what you are doing. I’m severely sight impaired but registered blind and only have sight in my left eye which is 2 meters blurred tunnel vision. This video is bad and very descriminatory.
Please take in to consideration my situation too. I can only do what I can. I’m sure you can find another video that provides you everything you need to complete your project. Enjoy the rest of your day
@@danielledewitt1 out of the millions of videos on UA-cam you want to be a Karen here it’s unfortunate for your condition and I sympathise with you, but the world doesn’t revolve around you and it’s my Chanel I make videos how I see fit that works for me and like I said my for my situation. Good day
@@BundleInABasket Never said the world evolves around me not once did I say that. I was making an observation. You however clearly couldn’t care less about us blind/sight impaired. ADMIT IT!
This was so easy to follow. I made my first baby's hat. Thank you. Best tutorial.
I love the way this pattern is explained, especially as I don't always understand things first time
You do beautiful work. Thank you so much for the demo!
Best video I have ever seen!!!!! Very efficient and clear!!!!
I successfully knitted a hat for the first time with your tutorial! I really wanted to give something handmade to my friend's baby😊 Thank you so much for this tutorial💕
Amanda T you’re very welcome 😊
the only knitting tutorial that processes in my brain
So I'm about to start knitting like right now. Thanks for the inspiration. Have all this yarn just sitting here 🤦🏽♀️
Would this pattern work for circular needles and if so, what adjustments would I have to make to be able to knit this pattern with circulars instead?
Very easy and cute! Just one thing though, the ribbing instructions here are wrong. To get ribbing on straight needles and with this number of stitches, you have to K2 P2 on the odd rows and P2 K2 on the even rows. Found out the hard way. Otherwise it came out exactly the right size and shape.

Me too!
I though it was me! But I counted and recounted so came back to view video again. Yep, it was wrong.
Yea. For proper ribbing with a k2,p2 pattern, you need multiples of 4
Could you possibly explain more what you mean?:)
This is THE best knitting tutorial I’ve ever seen. I’m making one for my first grand baby 👶❤️🥰
How is your grand baby now? I’m having my second nephew this summer
It's easy and beautiful I love to do kitting since I watched this video thanks
What are the finished measurements?
Thank you very much for this great video. This was my first ever knitting project for my son to be in a couple of days 👶🏻🙏🏻🥰 Very easy to follow! I'm definitely going to come back to your channel 😉
I watch video and write down needle size how many stitches and what she does for each row then I can follow pattern at me own pace hope this helps

How many stitches would I have to cast on to make a baby hat for a 6 - 8 month old baby?
Very clear knitting tutorial!!
thank you very much. this is very simple to follow.
Mine looks way short? Like it wouldn't stay on. Did i do something wrong
I can't get to the printed copy. My phone says your site is unsafe😒
Hi I followed rows 1 -6 knit 1 purl 1 but because I thought every new row started with a knit my bonnet looks like moss stitch .

@@BundleInABasket great, thanks for that. Also I only have 4.5mm needles do I need to cast on 66 newborn or 80 0-3 months stitches still? Thanks

its easy n beautiful thank u
Thank you for your comment!

This hat is beautiful but seems too small even for a newborn baby
Mine came out so small that it certainly wouldn't fit a baby's head.
The ribbing does not work with 66 stitches. You need multiples of 4 to get ribbing with K2 P2
Yeah thank you I've been have trouble with that
