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.

I don’t know about the specific pattern you mention. I suppose that if anyone did have it they would not be able to publish it online because of copyright infringement laws. You might find the same book in a library or even a store, and you could read it over and see if that helps. Could someone at home make a copy and mail it to you? Otherwise, any similar type of hat should help. There are huge numbers of free hat patterns online, and you can see pictures if you search images. Good luck, I hope this helps.

If I’ve learned anything from the yahoo baseball section, it’s that just playing in the Majors means you automatically go to the Hall of Fame. What hat will future HOFer Corky Miller have on his Hall of Fame plaque?

I believe that the one game I remember him playing with the Twins qualifies him to have a Twins hat for sure.

I have a blue denim flop hat that had a plastic flower glued on it. I took the flower off but there is some glue left. How can I get rid of the glue?

It really depends upon the type of glue used. There are dozens of different glues that each have their own removal method. Though heat, water, and/or scraping work for most.

My father has had this collapsible silk top hat, also known as an opera hat, for as long as I can remember. He has passed away and the hat is now in my possession. The stitching to the lining and the band have become to unravel. I can’t seem to find much info on my hat. Can anyone help?

I was wondering what happens with all the hats that are thrown on the ice after a hat trick. Do they throw them out, do the players keep them or what?

from what i understand, you can go and get your hat back after you throw it from the place where they are stored after they are collected from the ice. if not collected, they are donated to a local charity

Why did the British Naval Officers (1700’s, 1800’s eras) at the rank of Lieutenant and above wear the same type of hat either with the points going side-to-side or front-to-back? That hat I’m talking about is what the average person would think of as being a "Captain’s Hat," but whether it just be incorrect Hollywood or not, I have seen many times where the hat is rotated 90 degrees from what I thought was the normal way to wear it.

Because they are weird!

My high school team’s hat came curved. Is there a way to make it flat without ruining it?

I wouldnt reccomend this at all, but you can put a textbook on the brim of the hat and leave it like this until it eventually straightens out

so I had this hat i really liked and i always had it playing tennis. but I sweat fast and the hat continually got dirty, but EVERYTIME we threw it in the washing machine, something came out messed up with it. first the lining came off, then some of the bill material ripped off, and now it looks like some homework your dog might spit out. Any suggestions for how to wash a hat?

try just hand washing it with a little clothes soap and let it drip dry thats what i do dont ever machine wash them

I want to surprise my boyfriend with a new hat like his old favorite one that got ruined so I don’t want to ask him any questions about the size to give my secret away…I know the hat was a medium but now when I look it up online they are just number sizes such as 6, 7, or 7 and a fraction. Does anyone know what size a medium would be?

23 1/17"

Can anybody tell me the name of the type of hat Randy, Ralphie’s little brother wore in the film\movie called "A Christmas Story" when they were at the mall visiring santa? Its looks like the long hat the sandman wears but has a ball at the tip like a santa’s hat.

I think that they are called "Stocking Caps".
