Will this pattern make an adult-sized hat? It is so simple looking but a great look for a guy.
I like the looks of the pattern, BUT, printing out the instructions, I get 5 other pages which I do not need. Is there some other ways to just get the pattern without printing out the rest.
I am beginner knitter.
Anonymous - please need advice
How many do I cast on for an adult size hat?
when you want to print, click on file menu, click on page preview.
scroll down to see which pages you want. click print, indicate that you want only pages 1-2. then click ok.
this should help. as interesting as comments are, printing them is not usually helpful.
Hat looks great, but can you provide instructions for an adult size? The link to these instructions was for a man's hat.
How many stitches do I need to add for a man's hat?
I just made this hat to fit a medium sized woman's head. I made the following adjustments to the pattern:
Cast On 90 stitches
Knit in stockinette for 5 inches
Add row of knit after K5, K2tog
Add row of knit after K1, K2tog
You will be left with 10 stitches
Hope this helps!
Thank you for your pattern modifications for a woman's hat. I hope to make one following your instructions and post the results soon. Happy Knitting!
I am also new at knitting and really want to make this for my son. His head measures 22, how do I adjust everything.
How do I make an adult hat size?
How do I make an adult size?
Yes theres away just put in the number of the pgs u want . If u want 1 or 5 just type it into the printer.
Do you need a gauge & size for a man hat.
To make this an adult sized hat, inc cast on stitches to 80, and then decrease proportionally as the pattern is written. Most adult heads are 22" around, whereas children's heads measure 20"
What does repeat from star across round.
Knit all stitches. mean?
To make a women’s adult hat if I use 80cast on stitches for decrease give instructions please?

Hi
I keep reading about how to print the pattern. There are 2 ways.
Firstly, select the information you want printed, then using control and press the P button, the printer panel should appear. From there, where it says print what (or similar like pages) locate the 'selected areas'. Thus will then only print what you have selected.
The second one is to print from the website as a PDF (you can also email as well).
Try visiting this webpage
http://www.printfriendly.com
It then gives you tge printed version and you can change size of images and text, I tend to reduce the image size to 25 percent. You can then remove anything that you don't wish to print. However, please remember to keep any copyright information.
Once you have information you need, click on the PDF and it will prepare the PDF file for you. You can then look at what you have and either keep what is shown or make adjustments as required.
I hope that information will help you for future use, bookmark the print friendly webpage so always there.
I find it very handy, once I hit accustomed to how it worked. Hopefully you will too.
