I bought this yarn at a MisKnits yarn studio here. I had gone there to buy something else. Anyway…This is for my husband. Halfway thr’ I ran out of yarn. I will have to buy more to complete this project.

11/19/08: All done . This was loads of fun. I knitted this on loom by holding two yarns(start and finish of the same skein) together. This is one of the quickest projects I have worked so far.

Yarn used : Van Dyck yarns – color #129. I used about 1 and 1/2 skeins.

Here is a video for making hats with brim.

This is my first project on looms. When I started, I simply hated it as I felt there is nothing much to do on these looms. Also, I have to use very thick yarn to make something without big holes in them. But then I started reading few blogs and came to know there is a whole community of knifty knitters.
With this hat, I used up some old yarn which was lying around for more than 2 years now. I wanted to give it to V as he loves these thick hats. But I ran out of yarn and it does not fit him. I blocked it to fit me .
