Hi, what did you do with the little tail that you started with that you took off of the peg that sticks out?
Denise I have never worked with a look but after watching your video I am "hooked" you are the best instructor! I am working on preemie hats now! Blessed you.
How do you tie off the beginning strand of yarn? Also how do you figure the amount of yarn so you can cut & use 2 strands of yarn or do you use 2 different skeins?
Your tutorial is the best one by far, I just got my looms, hopefully they will help me build up my inventory for the baby and chemo hats I donate. I usually crochet them by hand, takes about half an hour to make a small one. Looking forward to trying them out. Thank you and God bless.
Hey Allison, I most often just use one skein of yarn. They always come with one loose strand in the middle and I then pull one from the top or the bottom. Takes a bit of a battle and sometimes I end up pulling a a knotted clump. If I can't find a end (a loose strand) - I push it back in and try the other end. It gets ugly but works well. .. .. I live in a small house so I have to keep the inventory low. One skein per color.... hope that helps
Thank you for your kind words- It is awesome to create something pretty that will bless another - especially a precious little baby! Happy Looming !
I believe this is Denise from loomahat? I notice this video is from 2012. This is probably from before loomahat. She has grown so much! Denise is definitely my favorite. She is very helpful and clear in her steps. She even shows how to fix mistakes which I love:)
Hi Ashley - Yep it's me Denise from Loomaht LOLOLO .... you are too funny and way soooooo sweet.
Hi Penny! Yes I would, for the newborn hats.Think Goldilocks.. The next loom up would be too large, very uncomfortable and possibly risky to make a big hat for a baby. The next loom down is the one I use for doll hats and Barbie dresses - way toooo small.
missionboundcreation do you use the very small loom or next size up I’m confused can’t tell which one on video
Came out exactly how you made it! I’m so happy
I can't help but think of when my friend was a baby. She's so cute.
How many rounds did you do on the baby hat?
I have watched a dozen video's and yours is, by fa,r my favorite. Thank you so much. I just completed my first of many baby hat. Will be donating them to two of my favorite NICU centers.
Again managed to create such a gorgeous little hat. More vids please, possibly how to loom knit baby mittens. Thankyou
Thank you Debbie for you kind words. Much appreciated.
I noticed you didnt show how you bind of the beginning thread. Did you just roll it up into the "brim"
Does anyone have any advice on how you might be able to hide or tie off the start point?
Fantastic tutorial, turned out exactly as you showed it. How did you make the little pom pop. Thank you so much for your time in showing us this .
Hi Katy - the newborn hat is made with the small blue 24 peg loom. Some find that it is very small but baby yarn is soft and stretches well. You can use the small loom for larger dolls like American girl and to make adult socks. :)
Yes it did thanks! I just made my first baby hat while watching this video.
I love your video it's so easy to follow
This is an awesome tutorial, but I'd love to see how to attach the pom pom. I've never tried it before. I'm sure I could just sew one on, but how do I do it involving the final two strings that you pulled through?
Excellent job in explaining how to demonstrate how to my a 🧢 cap. I would like to ask do you precuts your yarn when you double your yarn? And how much approximately yarn do you need for 17 rows when you double your yarn?
I have found that the Simply soft yarn works very well for hats. Would you still use the 24 peg loom for the Simply soft yarn also.
Oh my gosh this worked out fantastic!! Thank you so so much it looked great!
Lilly Gastineau Thanks for the Thanks !- Here is a page with 85 Free Hat Patterns: www.loomahat.com/loom-hat-patterns/
Hi Denise thank you so much for this video, it has been so helpful. Can please show how you made the mom mom for the hat?
Thank you so much for this video. Yours is by far the best. It will help our ministry a lot. I will be subscribing to your channel. Keep up the good work and God bless you.
Thanks so much - better to sub to Loomahat channel. I don't loom knit here anymore
This is so cool! Never seen this technique before. Thank you for the video!
Hi I have a question! Thanks by the way for posting this video! Very easy to follow! When I go around I seem to go back a peg each time, so when the hat is done it has angled pattern that goes from the brim to the top of the hat. I've watched the video several times to see what I'm doing wrong, but can't figure it out. Any suggestions? Thanks!!
Ciao bellissimo tutorial,ti chiedo questa misura è solo per i prematuri quindi??
Started looming last month via your instructions on this preemie hat and love it! Excellent instructions. Could you please tell me what other stitches I can use that are soft on the inside for baby hats? i love your 3 oeg stitch and others that you so clearly demonstrate and wonder if they are good for preemie/newborn hats also. Thank you for all of your fab videos!!
I am going to get a loom and make some preemie hats. I had planned on crocheting them, so I think I'll do it both ways. I'm going to go visit your site now!
Cool Lee Ann - I find that you go much quicker by loom knitting than crochet.. Plus you don't have to concentrate when looming like you do when you crochet. I have mild ADD - need stuff where I don't have to focus to much.
Hope you like the site !

So how does it fit preemies and newborms if the circumference doesnt change?
It did!! Thank you so much! Now I see what I've been doing wrong. Thanks again for making the video. :)
Hi Laci, Thanks for asking. The skein of yarn always has a loose strand on the side. The other I pull from the top or bottom. You sometimes end up with a big clump of yarn. In that cause just cut the yarn - untangle the clump - tie the ends of the yarn back together - keep knitting as if noting happened. It beats buying two skeins of yarn for every project. Hope that helps - if not let me know I make a video to explain.
I didn't know you had two channels!
Very good video. I've loom knitted other projects. Just have one question. I need newborn hat. This video is for a preemie hat. How many more pegs or or pegs would I use for a newborn hat? You do good. Thanks!!
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you Erica Lynn.. to make an adult sized hat use a 36-peg loom. Same technique.. just bigger.. hope that helps :)
What do you do with your slip knot at the end? Do you weave it into the hat?
thank you I like how you finish the hat . Easy
Glad to hear my video was helpful !
I finish my hat ,yes nice . thank you
You are VERY welcome.

I know it’s been 10 years or more since this video, but if you see this can you please share what you do with the tail of yarn that you wrap in place on the outer peg to start?
TutleeCraft - will be coming sooooon. Thanks for asking
Hi, you are wrapping the yarn on the peg in clockwise, does it make any difference if I wrap it anticlockwise???
No you don't have to however when you only use one (and especially with baby soft yarn) you get a loose hat with holes. I like a tight fit.
love, love, love this tutorial! how would i make an adult size ??
Very nice thank you ,you make it very easy.Blessings
How do you use 2 threads? Are they 2 different balls of yarm?
Hi Diann - First - thanks for your kind words. About your question - I think you might be missing a peg as you work you way around the loom- Here is what works for me.. I change the color on the second to last peg.. may sound a bit silly but that change in the look of the loom as I am coming around helps me stay on track. Try it - let me know if that helps.
do you have to always use 2 threads?
Thank You Erica ! Check out the baby booties video - they go Great with the baby hat.
What kind of yarn I need to use
You Are The Best❤
I made some caps for a friend of mine who is a nurse and she gives them to her hospital to use for the newborns. She told that this cap is too big for the tiny babies, so I use the twelve peg or flower loom to make caps for them
how are you getting two stands of yarn from one skein?
Only for newborn so I can use the next bigger loom then for older babies?
Yes - Use the 31-peg. Go to my loom knitting website for the correct number of rows. Loomahat dot com. The number of rows determines the size of your hat just as much as the size of your loom. The more rows you add the wider the hat.
Hope that helps : )

Question- what do you do with the anchor yarn when you are finishing the hat, do you just weave it in?
Lauren Beauchamp Yes - Here is a cool easy project (Loom Knit Boot Cuffs) shows you how to weave in the ends and lots of other stuff - plus you learn how to make boot cuffs. th-cam.com/video/wlqtFeQ1-nQ/w-d-xo.html
I love your videos? Is there a way to bind off a preemie cap so it looks smoother or flatter at the top? I always put pom poms on mine, but would like to knit the caps without them but the cap looks "bumpie". Thanks!
Yes - go www.loomahat.com/flat-drawstring-cast-off/
hope that helps

Thank you for responding so quickly. I had to do this knitting a few times to get it right (I buy yarn at resellit shops to practice with) and I do like the look. Thanks for the help! LaVerne
You're welcome - glad I could help!
denise
I did 24 rows and ended up with 4.5 inches O.o I guess I wrap tightly, but it seems if I wrap any loosely it will come off. Any tips to wrap loosely?
is there a trick to getting the two strings over the other ones because it is really tough please respond, thank you
Make sure your hook is in and you hold the loom tight. For some people it's easier to sit and put the loom on their lap. Best Advise: Practice makes perfect.
WHAT SIZE YARN DO YOU USUALLY USE FOR BABY HATS? WHEN USING 2 STRANDS OF YARN, HOW DO YOU KEEP YOUR YARN FROM TWISTING? DO YOU PULL FROM 2 SKEINS, OR ONE SKEIN? i WOULD APPRECIATE IF YOU COULD RESPOND. THANK YOU.
How many pegs is this loom please?
Thank you. Check out my other channel LoomaHat which is where all my loom knitting projects will be from now on.
You are zooooooooooo welcome zmz945......I couldn't resist.
how do you get 2 strands of yarn? or what is the length of yarn that you would cut?
Hi Hanna - go to my loom knitting page Loomahat ( dot ) com and you will see my post on knitting with 2 strands of yarn. I just did you so you won't have to scroll down to far.
When you say "the length of yarn" are we talking in the beginning of the project or the end?
Using a "bolt" ( or yarn that you have NOT balled up) pull the yarn from both (either) ends.
Hello very nice and easy baby hat can you tell me please how many pegs is your kniting loom and can i make for adult also?
How many pegs was this loom
Hey I would love to know if this hats really fit a baby head...it seems so small...I got a loom with 24 pegs myself...wanna make a hat like this for a three months old
24 pegs work mostly for newborns
denise
is this a 24 peg loom?
great video!!!
Great Allison !!! Thanks for letting me know I appreciate that big time. now you have to make more .. and if you close one end , fill it with poly-fill, close the other end - you have a ball. If you make two hats and fill them and sew them together you can make the little doll in my profile picture.. there are LOTS of stuff you can make once you know how to make this little hat. TH-cam doesn't allow links in the comments - so Here is the closes I can get - go to LoomaHat . com for more ideas.
very good TY
Hi where can I purchase one of these looms? X
How did you sew the Pom Pom on?
Here is an article with step by step txt and pic instructions: www.loomahat.com/how-to-attach-a-pom-pom/

I'm doing something wrong! On the last post, on every row my work is loose. That's the only place, the rest of the hat looks good. I have tried going the opposite direction, putting the yarn on real tight...nothing has helped!
Thank you this video was very informative ;)
You are very welcome ZandyAG!
Thank you!
I saw this video today and I have already made 4 for charity. My question is where do I donate them? Is reliefshare still accepting them ? I noticed this video is older. Any suggestions on where I can mail them will be greatly appreciated.

Hi Megan ONeal I hope you see this comment. Not able to reply directly on your comment - and you don't show up on the +1 list soooo here goes the answer to your question. YES, you knit stitch the whole project.
Not Ness
Awwwww cute
Thank you!
You can stop by my website homepage is a link. TH-cam doesn't allow actual links so this is as close as I can get LoomaHat (.) com . Also most local craft stores have looms. Avoid the Boye. See my review so that you can understand why.
Correction Denise! I have never worked with a loom! Not a look!!! Lol!!!!
Hi Brooke, There is a tutorial on my loom knitting website.. Just go to LoomaHat(dot)com//how-to-attach-a-pom-pom .. and you will get a text and picture tutorial.
How many pegs does your loom have?
I so love you. you're perfect
Make a hat.. there must be another baby in your lift... if not you could always make one and donate it to your local hospital. :)
What size yarn?
JSJstudios Baby Yarn
Blue loom seriously??? How about how many pegs.
This video was in 2012 - back then blue loom meant 12 pegs. There are not to many options. It's great that now there are sooooooo many - things have changed - but I can not update the video. Hope that helps
How many pegs did this look have
24-pegs
walmart, michaels crafts
Voice is too muted and does not state a recommended length for hat.
I have made even smaller ones for snowmen and ones for Barbie dolls inbox me on messenger and I'll show you a picture.
How many yards of medium worsted weight yarn will I need for a newborn baby hat?
