NICE AND EASY! ADULT STOCKING HAT

YARN: 3/15 OR 3/12 SPORT (THE SIZE OF YOUR YARN WILL DETERMINE THE SIZE OF YOU HAT.)

TENSION 7 THROUGH 9 DEPENDING ON THE WEIGHT OF THE YARN.

Cast on by e-wrapping 145 stitches every other needle from 72—0----73. Knit 1 row (if you have your weaving levers in work you don’t need to hang a comb unless you want to) most machines I have tried will do this.

Knit to row 170 and begin a 60 row pattern. When pattern is finished, hang hem over Every Other Needle.

Row counter is now 230. Knit 10 row plain to row counter 240.

Transfer Eon to right and push all empty needles out of work

Tighten tension as for Mock Rib 5 tension lower then main tension.

Knit to row 250, break yarn but leave a long enough length for seaming and for the top of the hat.

Pull needles to hold and take off on a threaded double-eye transfer tool.

You may add a pom-pom to the top if you like.
