OMG, you just made my fear of DBL pointed needles vanish. Thank you so much, what a spectacular video!!! Now I can use up some of my stash and practice. You are a true knitting goddess!
Hi Beth, I'm so glad I could help! 😀Happy stash knitting!
@@nobleknits wondering if there is a difference between a long tail cast on to a regular/simple cast on to use in a project?
i love my double pointed needles....takes a bit to get used to it when you start, but then it was easy..love making baby hats and donating..
Great to hear, Ruby! Where do you donate your hats? Do you have a favorite charity? 😀
@@nobleknits donate to a few places..hospitals, close or farther out..where there is a need ...some charities i have found on fb...
What a soothing voice. Geez.. .I'm an experienced knitter, and even if I had done this CO method in the past (and not aware of it!), it was nice to see it laid out in a video! 😊 thank you.
Hi Christine, Oh thank you for your kind words. 🥰 I'm glad you enjoyed the video, too!
This is absolutely ADORABLE...just made it for my nephew’s newborn 👶🏻
Hi Katibere1966, Perfect! He's going to look adorable in this hat! 😀
Loved knitting this hat. Such an easy to follow tutorial. This was my first time knitting with dpns and I feel really confident to tackle socks now! Thank you!
You are an excellent teacher! The two knitting problems you pointed out are something I would totally run into and panic lol. I just ordered my first set of dpn's to knit my first baby hat!
Just made the hat while watching you-super cute!!! And my first time using DPNs.
Xteena, You just made my day! 😀Great job!
You’re such a great instructor. Thanks for these tutorials.
Hi Zan, Great to hear from you again! Thanks for your kind words and I love that you are learning a lot from them. 😀
I love it that we can knit with you and I can learn how to read the pattern Thank you so much
This was really easy to make and this was my first time using DPNs ! My baby hat came out awesome!
A great beginner tutorial! Thanks - I’ll be adding this project to my list!
Best teacher
Thank you so much, Carmen! 🥰
How to you avoid ladders?
What a fantastic teacher you are 🙂
What a great lesson! Thank you.
Thank you so much, Lili! Enjoy 😀
Thank you for sharing this, I will make one for my brand new grandson, he is just over a month old, I will be using alpaca/merino wool. Your instructions are very good as well. Thank you for showing how to wind the hank, I usually get my hubby to help but he could not do it all the time.
Hi Gladys, Congratulations on your new grandson! 👶I'm glad the winding section helped, too!

Hi Gladys, Congratulations on your new grandson! 👶I'm glad the winding section helped, too!
Thank you so much. I tried to get the written pattern, however I never get the email, not even in my junk folder.😊
@@mamacamano7507 If you signed up you should have received a confirmation email. When you click the link in the email, the pattern pops up and you can save it to your computer.
Just made one of these hats! I am pregnant and wanted to get back into knitting for my baby! Hat turned out super cute even though I messed it up in a few places lol. I will definitely be making some more!
How many CO stitches for 0-3 months and 3-6 months?
I just love your techniques of teaching. Sending love from Texas!
Wish me luck. Going to get the db needles! And try this. Have always wanted to do this. Thanks. You’re such a great instructor.
I'm SO intimidated by DPN's......I've been knitting for about 3 or 4 years now and never tried it. I've always wanted to learn but it SCARES me lol😂
A quick story.....last year I sat on one of my bamboo straight needles and broke it in two. I kept both pieces thinking I'd find a use for them somewhere. Last week I deliberately broke the other needle,so I had 4 pieces,then sharpened both ends with an electric pencil sharpener. They're a little short,but now I have a set of DPN's lol.
I also have a new grandson on the way,and I think this baby hat just might be my dive into the world of DPN knitting🤞🏻your instructions make it seem so easy~!! 😬🥢🧶
Vivienne, for anyone else, I might say..take it slow..HOWEVER, after what you just told me about your feather & fan shawl and Celtic blanket, you need to dive right in! Double points are easy and I show you exactly how to use them step-by-step in the video. You might like a set of metal dpns so you don't have to worry about them breaking! 😀
Just finished the hat. Not perfect,but that was me, it's the first time I've tried knitting with 5 dpns. And I tried doing stripes as well. They were straight, so I guess that's something. Thanks for helping me get over my fear of dpns, I'll keep working on it.
Can can you use a light “3” yarn. Thanks. I make these for charity and have some of that baby weight yarn. Thank you.
What a fun pattern, especially for someone who is just getting brave enough to use double sided needles. Thanks!
Hi JeNell! Are you going to try it? 😀
@@nobleknits Hi Nancy! Yes I am. I just recently bought a set of bamboo double sided needles (on a whim!) and I found out that one of my former colleagues was pregnant! :-) First I have to finish the project on my needles (a boot camp cowel) but I am inspired-you make this little cutie caps look doable! :-)
@@jenellpadilla1799 Great! Keep me posted on your progress 😀
Thank you very lovely hat. x
You're welcome, Coral! 😀
Thank you so much, I just knitted my first hat for a friends baby! I would love to knit a slightly bigger matching one for their older sibling who is about 2 and a half. Any idea how many sts I would need to cast on for this? And also how many inches I would knit before beginning the decrease?
I am so proud of my hat 1sr time knitting on double pointed needle you made it so easy . Could you please make a video knitting a 3 month old baby Aviator hat . Thank you
This is great! I love it! I was wondering if there is a pattern for larger size hats. Like a child’s size up to adult?
What size of needles do you use?
So cute!!!
Thanks so much 👍🏼
It looks so intimate i can't do is god bless you for your beautiful talent that god geven you
Thank you Vanetza - I show you how to knit on double points and tricks for doing it easily!
Is there a written pattern??
Yes! There is a written pattern for this project: blog.nobleknits.com/blog/easy-baby-hat-knitting-pattern-free
Sorry, I forgot to ask, do you have another pattern like this for 12 months. Thank you.
Can you use continental knitting when using dpns?
What size kneedles u suggust i use for this project
Thanks for sharing
Where can I get the pdf pattern link ? Thx
Italiano grazie
I hate to wind the yarn I’m 86 I thought we advanced since my grandmothers days
Hi Bernadette, You can purchase a yarn winder, but I still find the old-school way very relaxing. 😀
Hi what other yarn could I substitute. I'm in Canada and looking to buy yarn comparable thanks
Could I use a light worsted yarn for this? I have some yarn leftover from your diagonal stripe baby blanket (love it!) and I wanted to make a matching hat. Would I need to use a different size needle?
I'm thinking of making an adult size version of this cap
How many rows do you think you have when finished?
Do u have double or
Straightening up
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️
Thank you, Maria. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video 😀
Love this tutorial with the problems solutions. I am not a fast knitter. I knit continental. How many do I cast on for 12 months baby? I love the I-cord.🧶💕
Hi Helen, Cast on 72 stitches for 12 months. 😀
Thanks for help. When get back to the beginning of the row to start my 2 row, I have this extra yarn. How do I get it tight? . Have you used a three weight yarn for this hat. Warmest Regards 😊
@@helenjharris7608 It sounds like you are doing a loop (aka thumb cast on). That extra yarn appears because it's a somewhat flimsy cast-on. If you just keep knitting, it should go away after a few rounds. However, you might want to try the long-tail cast-on. It's a sturdier cast-on and my go-to for most projects...plus, you won't have that extra yarn problem. Here's a link to it: czcams.com/video/2I6mVxttK-w/video.html I have not yet made this hat using a #3 dk weight yarn. Have fun making your baby hat project! 😀
I used the long tail. I continental knit, I just needed to pull the first stitch tighter. I love using the dpn, love this baby hat. Thanks for your help. Have a wonderful day.
@@helenjharris7608 Ah, ok! I'm so glad you figured it out! 😀

Hi Karen, It looks much scarier than it is. Plus, I show you the top 3 problems knitters face with double-pointed needles and show you how to fix/avoid them!
I want to knit this for my little one that I’m due with in November🤍. But I don’t have DBN, can I still make this without them? Thanks!
