“'Hook Line & Sinker' by Sharyn Anhalt”
Description
I’m hooked on knitting with Noro Rainbow Roll. Cast on for this hat, and started knitting round and round …and before I knew it I had used the entire roll for this hat! This exaggerated stocking cap with a rolled brim and twisted I-cord tail will use up nearly all of one roll, resulting in an incredibly light, warm and distinctive hat. Feel free to swirl the long peak artfully around your neck, or leave loose and flowing to provide drama with every toss of your head!
Rainbow Roll is unspun roving, and will break if tugged aggressively. For best results, unwind a few yards from the roll, knit, unwind a few yards, knit – you get the idea. If the strand does break, overlap the ends and rub between your hands for a quick felted join. The knit fabric is very strong.
NEEDLES AND STITCHING:
Supplies: Noro Rainbow Roll, one 100 gram roll (approx. 325 yards) color shown #1016 Needle US size 7 (4.5mm) 16 inch circular and double pointed (dpn) Stitch marker Finished size: 18 inch circumference, 50-60 inch length Hat will stretch to fit head size 20-24”. Length can be adjusted by varying the number of rows knit evenly between decreases. Gauge: 18 sts over 4 inches.
