I am watching this while I'm knitting hats. It's such a simple pattern and is a perfect stash-busting project! And seeing as I just got an entire bag of yarn...I am going to need it.

This is such a brilliant video! Following this, I have knitted my first ever hat :) THANK YOU so much as this tutorial was so easy to follow and was a very quick process!!

Thank you SO much for this tutorial! This is amazing! I was wondering how long knitting needles loop was? I was using mine and it’s way too long!

Hey! Sorry for the delay! I use a 40cm cable needle for hats usually!

1:29 Wow you using 100% wool ❤🎉

should the first decrease round basically be every seventh stitch, except at the beginning?

Hello! I absolutely love this pattern - I'm a beginner and this was so easy to follow along, so thank you! If I wanted to make a slightly bigger beanie for a larger head, how many stitches would you cast on, and how would you recommend decreasing the stitches? Thank you!

Hey! I would recommend keeping it an even number and 2 sts in chunky yarn is usually about 1 inch so you can calculate how much extra you want from there!

What pattern do I buy for this on your website?

Hey there! Looove your Insta page and your tutorials!!! I have 15mm needles and 15mm wool yarn, how many stitches you think I should cast on? Sorry but I started not long ago and I really don’t know how to figure this out! Thank you ❤️

Hey! I'd usually follow the gauge recommended on the yarn. If you're using the same yarn as in the video, in my experience about 34-36 stitches would work depending on the size you want. Because the yarn is so chunky and quick to work also if I find it isn't fitting I will just rip out and start again. This is just a guess though!

Hello love! Thanks for this wonderful tutorial ! If I knit with the wool from wak and 15mm needles, so you think the pattern would work if I cast 5 stitches less?

Hey! you can cast on less stitches but keep it an even number

Hey, I would love to try and knit this pattern, seems lovely! But I just cant`t understand row 2 and row 4 of the decrease part, what exactly is the pattern there? Im so sorry! Thanks in advace if you help me with this!

Hey, so when you work Round 2 and Round 4, the decrease will be where the 2 knit stitches are next to each other. So in Round 2 it's work 4 stitches, knit 2 together. In Round 4 it's work 3 stitches, knit 2 together. I was making up the decreases as I went which is why it might seem a bit confusing haha, but thanks for asking I hope this helps!

Is there a written pattern somewhere? What thickness of yarn?

If I were to make this for a child should I just halve everything?

love your video! thank you! can i ask which length is your circular needle? thank you!

Hey! This used one ball of super chunky yarn which is about 80m/87yds. :)

How long is the cord between the needles? I suppose it makes a difference? (I have one that's super long and I assume it won't be any good...) Thanks in advance!

@FridayKnits

Mine are usually about 40 cm I think, you can use a longer cord and work in the round using magic loop. I personally don't love that method so I use smaller cords

Hey ! Where Can I find the knit pattern ? Thank you so much :)

Hi ! I am trying SJP beanie by WAK. 1,1 rib as well ... they say to do 31 stitches and you do 40 (even)... why not 41 (odd) ?? I dont’ get it I am a beginner ...

Hey the odd number is for when you join it in the round it, you bind off 1 stitch and it makes it a little cleaner along the edge. You can do that if you want or CO the even amount and seam the edge neatly. No right or wrong way I chose not to for this video to keep it simple.

@@FridayKnits thank you !! I did it already actually I am glad I understood everything now ✨🙏🏻

Can I ask what’s the size of the needle you use? The link in the description isn’t available in the UK so I’m not sure. It looks like a 12mm perhaps?

@FridayKnits

Hey I updated the link in the description, but yes it's 12mm circular needles. I don't remember if it's the 16 inch or 24 inch circulars but both will work fine

Can I also do it on 15 needles? 😇

Hey! I just got into knitting so excuse me if it’s a dumb question, but does it have to be with circular needles only?

No! You can knit hats on straight needles as well. Just type in chunky hat straight needles . I have knit off of a tutorial on here before and the hat turned out great on straights. Also worked up really fast !

Sorry but its not clear seeing you knitting when to decrease.The only Rows which are clear :the first the third and the sixth.I've watched the video in show motion but it is not clear.Please can you explain IT .Does it matter if you have more stiches.its the fame technique to use ? Thank you from Argentina

Not clear instructions toward the end…

Love the hat but when making a tutorial it’s always best do actually say what you’re doing rather than repeating do “that” because unless the viewers an experienced knitter they won’t have a clue what you mean
