This is a Hat knitting method many associate with Woolly Wormhead and Woolly’s keen to demystify it! They will talk about the construction method, discuss how our stitches and fabric properties change when we turn our work ninety degrees, and the techniques we use to create a seamless Hat. We’ll cover why they love this method, it’s potential and how it differs to other Hat construction methods. It’s not going to be all technical - there’s lots of fun things to explore, and Woolly will have plenty of examples, schematics and deconstructed Hats to share!

Technique Requirements: cast on/bind off, increase/decrease, chart reading, have knit a few accessories, short rows

Several small balls of up to 50g and the appropriate sized straight needles and DPNs/circulars are required. Participants will also need a crochet hook, some waste yarn, and a tapestry/darning needle.
