Holy moly my head is spinning from information overload 😮 I like to have a written pattern. I'm too old to follow tutorials 😢 but thank you for sharing such useful tips.
Thank you for explaining about quick decreases for shaping the crown. I have a lot of thick hair and want to knit a hat that won't be tight over it and look weird. I'm definitely going to try your method.
Thank you so much! That was one of the best videos I’ve seen. I’ve been dating for a long time however it never occurred to me how many different styles of hats there are. I would love to see a video like this on socks and another on mittens and gloves. Thanks again
Thank you SO MUCH!! You took the guess work out of it for me. The crown looked perfect! Thank you truly! Since my baby is a boy my older son wants them to match so this will help so so much!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
with the hats I've been knitting I've been having the problem where they are will stretch out, so then the hat doesn't fit anymore because its to loose. Is this normal for yarn to do this or am I doing something wrong like making it to small or using the wrong type of yarn? I use mainly acrylic yarn.
My question is not specifically related to hats, BUT it's one i have struggled with for months: what happens if I accidentally knit in the row below? How can I identify it? How can I fix it without frogging many rows or , in some cases the entire project?
It can be hard to identify but if you knit the stitch below the stitch on the needle, the yarn used to create the stitch that was sitting on the needle is now 'wrapped' around the stitch you did knit - so the stitch will look slightly thicker (we do this on purpose for things like Fisherman's Rib to get that thicker texture). The only fix really is to watch while you're knitting, making sure you're knitting the stitch ON the needle, not into the stitch below.

Glad it was helpful!

Yay! I'm glad it was understandable. After I finished recording I was thinking it might not be as clear as I wanted it to be.
BTW: I continue to look forward to hearing you have received your Master Knitter certification. You certainly deserve it!
Thank you!
I absolutely love your videos! I learn so much in every one. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.
You are so welcome! I'm glad you find them helpful.
Very good will try
i enjoyed watch this i am a new knitter i want to try hats and socks and mits
Very good Now I know more thank
For pure warmth for my husband, I rely on "The Hubby Hat" by Anna Johanna. It's a double layer using a provisional cast on. Great for winter!
What a great name for a hat!
When blocking color work on a hat, wouldn’t blocking it inside-out help with the floats?
Yes, absolutely! Good advice!
Is this not a live? Well I was chatting along with you lol
Haha - no, not live! I think we'll have to start doing those, though!

Sometimes washing and drying (if the yarn is okay to go in the dryer) will bring it back to the correct shape.
@@NerdyKnitting thank you!

In my experience, acrylic stretches out.
That's good to know - thanks for sharing!
