This pattern uses a technique I discovered. When you use this technique there is no “stripes,” or “ladders” in Garter Stitch hats. I absolutely love this technique. I will be using it in all future Garter Stitch projects. I named the technique the “Seamless Garter Stitch.”

A 5/8” gauge round loom is needed for the pattern. But you can do this technique on any round loom, in Garter Stitch projects.

On 06/25/18, I learned that Lion Brand Jiffy Solid was discounted. You can use ANY brand of yarn as long as it meets the weight requirements stated below.

This pattern uses one strand of any #5 Bulky weight yarn, and 2 strands held as one of any #4 Worsted weight yarn.

You can make the hat without using the “Seamless Garter Stitch” technique.
