This month we're knitting the Count to 12 Hat designed by Liz Daly!  I designed a hat where you can count in your head, do box breathing (a relaxation technique) or other options as you knit this hat.  The goal for this hat is to also not use a lot of stitch markers.  I also knit this hat using one skein of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/stringtheoryyarncompany.com\/products\/alpaca-heather-50g-dyed\"\u003eAlpaca Heathers\u003c\/a\u003e (40 grams to be exact). This hat knits up quickly so you could easily make more than one during our 3 meetings. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMy name is Liz Daly and I host the Newish Knitter KAL (NKKAL) the first 3 Wednesdays of every month.  This KAL started back in 2020 when we realized that we needed to connect to our customers in a different way.  The original plan was for this group to assist knitters who had completed our Knit 101 and Knit 102 classes continue knitting but it has turned into a monthly group of knitters of all levels (beginner to expert)  from across the USA who meet monthly to work on projects together which are the perfect social knitting projects.  Join us for a month or two and I guarantee you will be more confident knitter.  Our Newish Knitter KAL is for knitters who have finished Knit 101 and Knit 102 and are wondering what to knit next.  All of these patterns are great places to practice your stitches and learn how to read patterns.  This KAL is also for more experienced knitters who want to socialize with others while knitting a project where you can knit and chat at the same time.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSupplies:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eYou will recieve the pattern with the Zoom link.  \u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003cp\u003eCircular needles 16\" (or shorter) US 3 or US 4 depending on if you knit tightly or losely.
