BIG BEN


GAME ON!!
Cast on 28 stitches. (Or a multiple of 7)
Knit 7 rows
Purl 7, knit 14, Purl 7.
On the wrong side, do the opposite.
*the 14 stitches in the middle will be stockinette stitch for the cable set up.
Knit a long during the game and every time Big Ben screws up make a cable to the left.
Touch down passes= cable to the right.
Make them random, or be specific, I don't care. But what every you do, don't stop knitting!

Jersey Stripes Hat

Jersey Stripes Hat
By: Ellisha Barmore
(ish174)
Materials: Size 7 DPNs
Worsted Weight yarn: Caron Sunflower, Black, White
Cast on 78 (86,92) stitches with provisional crochet chain with waste yarn.
Folded Brim:
With Black, Knit stockinette stitch for 6 rows, 1 purl, 6 more stockinette.
Fold at the Garter row and pick up the provisional stitched and knit two ends together around.
Knit 4 more rows with Black.
Start Stripe Sequence as follows:
3 rows Gold, 1 black, 3 white, 1 black, 10 gold, 3 white, 1 black, 3 gold, 3 black
Start decreasing for crown by K2 tog at beginning and SSK at each end of DPNs on every other row until 8 stitches remain on needles. Sew together to close crown
Embellish, Block, Enjoy.
Go Steelers!
Notes:
It is always best to measure head size prior to starting. Every head is different and you may need to adjust cast on number as needed.
I like the folded brim because it is neat looking and snug. You may prefer a different brim, such as the k1p1, etc. Just be sure to start with provisional so the Stripe sequence is centered and you can go back to adjust the beginning as needed.
