"Leave a comment...Could you amend the pattern to include when the DPNs will be used and instruct me on how to finish the hat using them. Thanks."

"Your stitch count should not change, it should be consistent row to row. For every SSK and K2tog you do there is a yo to compensate for the reduced stitches in the pattern. The pattern repeat is 17 stitches, SSK and K2tog use 6 stitches to complete each set of directions, there are 6 yo's elsewhere in the directions to compensate and bring the stitch count back to the original 214 stitches, if you are losing or gaining stitches look to your yo, that stitch makes it easy to lose or gain stitches, if it is not done correctly or is dropped accidentally. Hope this helps someone, happy knitting."

"All the abbreviations used in this pattern are standard abbreviations, typically a new abbreviations key is not provided unless there is a new or little known abbreviation used. If you google knitting abbreviations, you will get 10's of thousands of results, many of which are in printable chart form, so you can print them out and keep them for future reference."

"This is kind of a trick question. On double stockinette the purl sides of both are on the inside and are therefore hidden. It's the perfect stitch for hiding color change lines!!!!"

Broken Rib Cowl and Headband

"Get ready for winter with this broken rib cowl and headband duo. Made with super bulky yarn and fat needles, you'll have this all knit up in a couple of evenings. And the best thing is it's easy enough for beginners. This knitting pattern uses simple knit and purl stitches making it a fast and easy knitting project. With the holidays just around the corner you might want to knit more than one."

Beginner

Knitting Needle Size15 or 10 mm

Yarn Weight(6) Super Bulky/Super Chunky (4-11 stitches for 4 inches)

Gauge2.5 stitches, 4 rows, 1 inches. 2.5 stitches and 4 rows per inch

Materials List

  • 2 Skeins Super Bulky Yarn
  • US 15 (10mm) straight knitting needles

For the cowl I added 2 extra stitches for the edges, and on every row I slipped the first stitch as if to knit and I knit the last stitch. This size cowl took one ball of yarn and was approximately 29 inches long. If you want to make it longer just add a new ball of yarn and continue on in pattern.

For the headband, rather than slip the first stitch of every row I knit it and gave it a good tug to keep an even edge and I knit the last stitch. Make sure to measure your head. What you want to do is knit the headband about - 1 shorter than the width of your head. It should fit nice and snug without being too tight.
