Tom's Machine Knit Circular Hat, Now In German!

A few weeks ago, Diana Sullivan sent me an email as a fellow machine knitter Telse in Germany asked if she could film the hat I designed (Diana filmed and posted on her blog & YouTube) as a German video. I designed this method as I avoid seaming if possible. Diana tested it for me, liked it and did the video (was that a real honor!). We have been encouraging machine knitters to knit for the US Troops in Afghanistan. Diana is a wonderful person and someone I enjoy communicating and exchanging ideas with.

Telse made the hat for her husband (on her brother 260) and they both liked it. I was flattered and of course I said yes when they asked my permission. Even if you don't understand German you can easily follow along. Here is her wonderful YouTube video of the hat I designed.

My Quick Knit Circular Troop Cap

I had promised (another website) to repost this last evening, sorry that I didn't get around to it. This is a simple hat I designed as I avoid seaming if and when possible. This hat is perfect for a quick knit to send to our troops or knit for your own use. If you would like the written pattern, let me know!

Special thanks to Diana Sullivan who liked the hat and filmed the below two videos & then posted them on YouTube. You can go to her blog by clicking on the link in the column to the right.
