Home > Classes > Knitting > AccessoriesShort Row Shaping Hat

Afraid to knit in the round? Jill’s hat is knit sideways on two needles with one seam so you can start making hats on straight needles. This project uses short row shaping - a technique that sounds intimidating but really it's just a way to shape wedges by not knitting to the end of your knitting. Jill shows you how to create those wedges that you then graft together for a quick-to-knit hat that can be worked up on smaller or larger needles (with matching yarn) to adjust the size.
