A knitting Hat book with a difference! 24 contemporary designs using the sideways construction method. Knitted on straight needles using short rows for shaping and provisional cast-on & kitchener stitch for a professional, seam free finish.

Each Hat pattern is available in 3 sizes and are provided in both written and charted format.

Full colour, detailed tutorials are included, of which 8 are for kitchener stitch. This book is aimed at intermediate level knitters and a reasonable level of knitting skill is required. In these patterns, row gauge rather than stitch gauge is the important factor.

This book has been thoroughly revised and updated and is now in it's 3rd edition. All previously known errors have been corrected in both the print & digital versions.

The Ravelry group Wormhead's Hats is recommended for technical support and sharing photos of completed Hats. Further information can also be found on the book's Ravelry page.

"Going straight is really special. It is providing me with a base for experiments in creating 3-D objects with knitting. I like knitting, but this is something more"  Lucia, Italy
