Need advice on flat to circular knitting for a Hat
I bought a book Noro Revisited
http://www.theknittinggarden.com/noro-revisited.htm I love the HORDAL hat and scarf pattern and bought the yarn, however the pattern is for a flat knitted hat and I want to do it in the round. The pattern calls for 84 stitches CO and work garter stitch...I think that means I would have to knit a round and purl the next? The next section of the hat is Knit 2 Purl 2 ribbing and I am not sure how to do the decreases....it says decrease 8 stitches evenly. TIA for any help! Donna

Yes, in circular knitting, garter stitch is knit one row, purl the next.

Wow thanks DA.......I have a mind block when it comes to mathG I have been looking for a software program that will do the knitting math when I need it. You are very welcome. Being among the mathematically challenged also, I use a program called Knitting Math Wizard. You can get a demo here. http://www.software4knitting.com/pkn...ath_wizard.htm No affiliation with knitting wizards, just happen to like their software. DA
