This step-by-step tutorial shows you how to knit the simplest hat ever using a loom. So, if you have never loom knitted before, this project is perfect for you! And if you are already a loom knitter, this video tutorial may help you guide your family and friends on how to start with your beloved hobby.

In this tutorial you will learn:

  • How to start your hat (how to cast on stitches on the loom)
  • How to knit your hat (how to work e-wrap knit stitches)
  • How to fold and make the brim of the hat directly on the loom
  • How to take your work out of the loom and close the hat (how to bind off)

LOOM: The loom I use in this project is a 41-peg XL gauge round loom, because I wanted to make an adult-size hat. If you want to make a preemie or newborn hat, I suggest you to use the 24-peg round loom. If you want to make a baby hat, then you better use the 31-peg loom. And use the 36-peg loom for children and teenagers.

YARN: The yarn I use here is a bulky weight yarn (size #5). If your thread is thinner than mine (a medium weight yarn), I recommend you to use 2 strands at the same time. For this project, I used 90g (3.17Oz) approx. of a yarn called Phildar Rapido.
