No-knit hats

Minimuetze9

Well, it took me a day more to take the fotos because I absolutely wanted to show you two different versions to present them. For your colours you should consider the surrounding where they shall be put lateron.

Minimuetze2Cut a 1,5cm piece of a gift wrapping roll that will serve as the base for your hat. Woollen threads will be pulled through that ring. In order to get threads of equal length wind them round a bread board or book of the right size of about 15cm. For every hat you’ll need between 60 and 80 threads according to the diameter of your  paper roll.

Minimuetze3Intersect all threads on one side of the board and put together four threads. (If you take thick woll you should take only 3 threads) Put them in halves, pull the loop through the paper ring and then your thread ends through the wool loop. Fasten the knot which will be the border of the mini hat.

Tie loops tightly through the paper ring to cover it completely. Adjust the knots in line afterwards.

Arrange the loose ends and tie them with a long thread to get the shape of a hat. Knot your thread twice and cut it off slightly above the knot.

Shorten the loose ends to get a pompon leaving a pair of long threads if you want to suspend them lateron. Hanging from a rutic branch with some wadding snowballs you will have a lovely window decoration.

Place them on some wadding snow spots amidst your flower pots to decorate your window sill. If you still don’t long for winter now it’s really not my fault.
