Row 2: p1, k1, *p5, k1, slip marker p1, slip marker k1, repeat from * to within 2 sts of end of row, k1, P1. Once the brim is the height you desire, end on a knit row, then turn work.įold row 1: working on the purl side of the fabric, k1, p1, * k5, p1, slip maker, k1, slip marker, p1, repeat from * to within 2 sts of end of row, k1, p1 Therefore, there is no need to work the many pinstripe-ends into the fabricīecause the pinstripes all start with a loop, and all the loose ends are run into the pom-pom, there are no ends to work in anywhere on this project. Top view of color-wheel hat: the ends of the pinstripes have been threaded onto a needle, then run through the hat top, into the pom-pom and trimmed to length. The contrast color ends yield a very pretty effect, as you can see below. Work in any other stray ends (such as from the grafting) in this same manner. (Geek note: pom-poms getting ratty through wear can be made to look new again via a "hair cut." Larger pom-poms obviously yield more opportunities for this trick.) Attach the pom-pom on top via the two long main-color tails you reserved inside the hat, then trim these to length.ĭecorate the pom-pom AND get rid of the contrast color ends as follows: With each set of color-ends, thread them onto a sharp needle and run each through the hat top and then into the pom-pom, then trim to match the pom-pom strand lengths. Pom-poms can be made large (as the brimmed hat in this post) or smaller (as the basic hat in this post). Make a pom-pom in the same color as the hat.
