We had so much fun with your rainbow of ribbed hats during our Classic Ribbed Hat Knit-Along! In our Classic Ribbed Hat Zoom + Knit recordings below, you can catch up on all the techniques you need to make your hat and also see fellow knitters’ progress and accomplishments. Enjoy the recordings of our calls anytime, and note that we list under each video the time stamps where we explain different techniques, so you can skip ahead if you want. If you haven’t started your hat yet, get the free Classic Ribbed Hat pattern and cast on with Cashmere Merino Bloom!
