What is the knitting pattern for a hat according to the Klutz knitting book?

I am making a hat for someone and forgot the book at home in another state. All I know is to cast on 84 stitches, then do the stockinette stitch until it is 8 inches long, but I forgot the rest. So I was wondering if anyone else knew because I cant find it anywhere online.

Can anyone recommend a good book about loop knitting?

I just got a set of circular loops for knitting and it didn’t come much with an instruction.

What’s the best knitting book for beginners?

I see so many high rated books I don’t even know where to begin. I want one to learn continental knitting as I’ve read it is easier to crochet if you know continental knitting.

So any suggestions?

Can you recommend a good crochet instructional book?

I’d like to learn how to crochet all different types of things. I I bought a book, but it’s too advanced for me. Can you recommend something for a beginner?

What is the scarf pattern in the Teach Yourself Visually Crochet book?

I bought this book, but I left it at my apartment, with no way to get to it re this blizzard!

If anyone has the pattern, would they mind posting it? The pattern is the one with the pink scarf with the white in the middle. It’s from the book Teach Yourself Visually Crochet.

Thanks in advance!
I was able to get to my book. :)

What is the best book about crochet?

I knit and it’s been a long, long time since I’ve crocheted. I want to get back into it, but don’t know the best place for a book. I’ve got the ‘Happy Hooker’ and don’t really care for it. And Vogue doesn’t have a crochet version of their stupendous stitchonary series. Any suggestions?

What is your favorite knitting stitch pattern book?

I don’t mean patterns for sweaters or scarves and such, but stitch-patterns. I have had several over the years and currently mine is Field Guide to Knitting by Jackie Powlowski. What’s yours?

What is the very best book for teaching crochet step-by-step from beginner to advanced?

I have Donna Kooler’s Encyclopedia of Crochet, but there are things in the book which I don’t understand or need more clarification on.
