60 Quick Baby Knits Preview - Sheep Hat by Renee Lorion

Sheep Hat (Pattern #2)
Designed by Renee Lorion
Published in 60 Quick Baby Knits - Blankets, Booties, Sweaters & More in 220 Superwash


Knit in 220 Superwash - shown in 910A (Winter White), 906 (Chartreuse) & 862 (Walnut Heather)


Size - 6-12 months


This adorable sheep hat is a preview of one of the 60 projects from the new book that just arrived in our warehouse last week (we love it when something comes in before it is expected).  I wish this had larger sizing - since it would be adorable for preschoolers (probably about another 12 stitches cast on would do it).  Look for 60 Quick Baby Knits in your favorite LYS!

  11. Does anyone know if there is a mistake in the pattern? I did the trinity repeats Five times like the directions say and this hat is way too short and squat. It looks like everybody else did more than five repeats?

  12. I would highly recommend buying the book. It has some very lovely patterns in it. I made this hat several times and it is adorable. To make it larger, just add another set or 2 or pattern stitches. Not too difficult. Happy Knitting

  13. I had the same problem as Celtic Heart! I just ripped it out and will try again- it was too short and squat. It starts decreasing too soon.

Honeycomb Cable Hat - Greenland

I got the brilliant idea this year to knit a number of people gifts.  I managed to finish 6 projects in the month of December and write out the patterns for most of them.  One of my favorites was this lovely cabled hat knit in Greenland .  Greenland is one of my favorite yarns - it has this amazing springy twists and has fabulous stitch definition.  Sadly, I seem to never get a chance to knit it. The finished hat shown is for an average adult - finished (unstretched) measurement is 7" wide and 8" long from the cast on edge.  I cast on 88 stitches.  It can easily be adapted to be smaller (cast on 80 stitches) or larger (cast on 96 stitches). Materials: (1), 1, (2) ball Greenland (100% Superwash Merino Wool - 137 yds/100 g) - shown in color 3549 US 7 - 16" circular needles US 9 - 16" circular needles Cable needle (or spare DPN) Stitch Marker Abbrevations K - Knit P - Purl cn - cable needle Sl - slip 4-st RC - Sl 2 sts to cn and hold to back
