- Hi there, I'm Faith Hale.

3
00:00:06,040 --> 00:00:06,873
I love to knit,

4
00:00:06,873 --> 00:00:09,179
and I've been teaching
knitting for a number of years.

5
00:00:09,179 --> 00:00:10,759
And one question I get often is

6
00:00:10,759 --> 00:00:12,759
what is an ideal first project?

7
00:00:12,939 --> 00:00:15,750
Now everyone tends to go
for the stereotypical scarf,

8
00:00:15,869 --> 00:00:17,250
but that can take a really long time

9
00:00:17,250 --> 00:00:18,699
because they're quite long.

10
00:00:19,140 --> 00:00:22,339
In my mind, the ideal
first project is a hat.

11
00:00:22,629 --> 00:00:25,050
In this class, we're going
to do a garter stitch hat

12
00:00:25,050 --> 00:00:26,359
using two colors.

13
00:00:26,600 --> 00:00:29,280
It'll be knit flat and
seamed up afterwards,

14
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:31,940
and we'll work knit
two together decreases.

15
00:00:32,149 --> 00:00:34,200
You can change the look
and style of this hat

16
00:00:34,200 --> 00:00:35,689
by switching up your colors,

17
00:00:35,710 --> 00:00:38,700
and it's ideal for both
male and female heads.
