At the cottage in the evenings she knitted - to rest, so to rest! I decided to try a slightly different way to tie a men's hat with an elastic band 2x2 knitting needles from the crown. Knitted from one skein left after a vest with pockets (see below) on circular 4 mm knitting needles with two threads.
In the ring, wrapped around the finger, I made 14 loops, picking them up from the top, then from the bottom of the thread of this loop. Distributed into 2 needles (circular).
1 row: knit these 14 (12 possible) loops face.
I made one row.
2 row: did nakida between them.
3 row knit all the backs with purl like 1x1 gum (it turned out 28 (24) loops).
This I knit two rows.
4 row: I did nakidy after each face.
5-6 row: knit nakidy facial (it turned out 42 (36) loops).
This I knit three rows.
7 row: made nakida between facial.
8-9-10 row knit knit back purses like 1x1 elastic (it turned out 56 (48) loops).
I made it 4 rows.
11th row: made nakida after each facial loop.
12-13-14-15 knit knit front rows (it turned out 84! (72) loops)
I knit it 5 rows.
16 row: made nakida after each purl.
17th row: knitted knit backs (it turned out 112! (96) loops).
18 and the subsequent rows knitted until the end of the gum 2x2 with a circle of 112 loops.
