Short Row Hat for Dominik


















Size: child's

Yarn: cascade 220 superwash
needles: us 6/4mm


Cast on 45 Stitches, and knit 1 row.

row 2: slip first stitch, k to end
row 3: k 43 stitches, wrap and turn, and knit back
row 4: k 41 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back
row 5: k 39 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back
row 6: k 37 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back
row 7: k 35 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back
row 8: k 33 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back
row 9: k 31 stitches, wrap and turn, knit back

row 10: change colors, and k to end of row, knitting wraps together with the st, they are wrapped around.

Repeat rows 2-10, 11 times more for hat. On last row 10, use same color as cast on section.
bind off, and sew seam to close hat.

for a really nice seam, use a provisional cast on, and close with a Kitchener stitch seam.

The first hat I made, I did 12 total repeats, but I think that may be too many. On my next hat I will try 10 repeats and see if that works better. For a larger hat, cast on more stitches, and add a repeat or two of the short row section.
