Hello I am relatively new to knitting, but already finished one of your beautiful baby sock patterns! Now I wanted to make something else for our baby, this hat with mittens, but looking at the wool I saw that you have the same amount of stitches in the gauge as with the socks I made, but almost the double amount of rows. (with the same needle size) How is that possible, somehow that does not make sense to me. Thank you very much for helping :)

Dear Mrs Rixt, your socks might have been worked in stocking stitch, while the hat is here worked in garter stitch, so that you will get another number of rows (you need more rows in garter stitch than in stocking stitch for the same height), ie you need here 52 rows (26 ridges) in garter stitch to get 10 cm. Happy knitting!

Hej Mette, jeg kan se at det ikke står med i opskriften, men du bør kunne klare dig med 1 nøgle i den mindste størrelse. Husk at det findes en video nederst i opskriften :)

20.02.2022 - 10:54Hi! Isn't there an error in the smallest size lengths for the English version? it's 5.5, 11, 15.5, 21, 25.5, and 31. that means the pieces are 5.5, 5.5, 4.5, 5.5, 4.5, and 5.5 cm long. But that means that the right part of the face becomes wider than the left part. Shouldn't it be 5.5, 5.5, 4.5, 4.5, 5.5, and 5.5? So the absolute lengths 5.5cm, then 11, then 15.5, then 20(!), and then 25.5 and 31? That way, the pieces with the slower in/decreases are the same size? Cheers!

Dear Meike, you are right, it should be 20 cm instead of 21 cm - as in this lesson. Thanks for your feedback. Happy knitting!
