This pattern is part of a book on hats that may be knitted in a long strip.This fast method of knitting allows us to produce a lot of hats quickly butthey may still be varied and interesting. This time we’ll see how slouch hats may be made with the use of tuck.Two hems and two gauges are provided so that the hats may be knitted on almost any machine. Tamm Bebe is used single or double stranded to get both gauges.
