Floppy Hat

Knifty Knitter Floppy Hat

Provo Craft Tools

  • Knifty Knitter Round Loom (green)
  • hook
  • yarn needle

Other Supplies

  • 1 skein of Fun Fur by Lion Brand Yarn (color: Indigo)
  • 1 skein of Wool-Ease by Lion Brand Yarn (color: Blue Heather or Denim

Step 1:
This hat is knit according to the basic hat instructions, which are found in the packaging for the round looms. Begin by using one strand of Wool-Ease yarn and one strand of Fun Fur. Hold the two strands together and treat them like one strand. E wrap and knit 20 rows. Make the brim by pulling up the first row and putting it back on the loom. Knit off. (Detailed instructions and images for this step are included in the round loom packaging.)
Step 2: Replace the Fun Fur strand with another strand of Wool-Ease and knit 10 rows.
Step 3: Replace one of the Wool-Ease strands with the Fun Fur strand, and knit for another 10 rows.
Step 4: Replace the Fun Fur strand with the other strand of Wool-Ease, and knit for another 10 rows.
Step 5: Replace one of the Wool-Ease strands with the Fun Fur strand, and knit the last 10 rows. Sew the stitches off of the loom using the yarn needle and the Wool-Ease yarn (see round loom instructions for details). Pull up tight and tie the top (see round loom instructions for finishing a hat).
Step 6: The hat will flop over for a free and fun look. It will be about 14" long from the bottom of the brim to the top of the hat.
