How To Knit An Angora Baby Hat Part Two
Patti Moreno show you how to finish knitting a baby hat with Angora and gives it to Paulo.
Step 1: Knitting patterns
So I am almost done with Paolo’s hat. I can start decreasing the hat now. I’ve knitted up two eight inches in the two by two ribbed pattern, and for my first decrease round I’m gonna knit two, pearl two, knit two, and then pearl two together. And I’m going to take that pattern and knit that in one round. Two… and now, we pearl two together. Now we knit two. We pearl two. So I’ve completed one round, now my second decrease round the pattern is the following: knit two, pearl two together, knit two, and then pearl one. So I’m gonna take that pattern and continue it for one whole round. Alright. So I’ve completed the second decrease round.
So, the next thing I have to do is start decreasing all of the knit stitches, so so far I’ve decreased the pearl stitches, now I’m going to decrease the knit stitches. So I’m going to knit two, pearl one, knit two together, pearl one. So, do you get the idea? You get the pattern of how we’re decreasing round after round? Until we get down to ten stitches. So knit one, knit two, pearl one. Knit two together.
Step 2: Weave string.
So the last thing I have to do is now weave this piece of string into each stitch. And I’m just pulling it through, just like that. Two, count them, two stitches left! Two, one stitch left! Yay! Look at this hat! Now I’m just gonna bring this through and I just want to tie it off. Now, if I want, I can put a little pom-pom on here and I can make a little pom-pom or, since it’s for a boy, I am just going to leave it plain like that. And there’s the new baby hat.
Step 3: Paolo likes the hat!
This is the hat that I made for you made out of one of our bunnies. You know those bunnies that you go and you visit. Isn’t it fuzzy? Yeah, have it. Here, let me put it on you. Oh, yeah! You look awesome! Snowboarder! Snowboarder extreme sports!
