I made a mini musselburgh for my last granddaughter for the hospital using 2 20 gram minis it was the hit of the hospital 😁 just finished another for her brother due in 6 weeks
@@susanrodway6203 hi I used a size 2 needle magic loop to start used baby size in pattern with 8 stitches per inch so I ended up with 24 in each section after increases done I was able to go to a US size 2 12 inch needle and whip it out fairly quickly. I weighed the yarn before starting and what it was right after my increases so I’d know when to decrease on the 2nd 20 gram mini.
Thanks so much for making this video. It’s really helpful as I could not understand what was meant by skimming the stitches inside. Very clear now, and hopefully the rest of my Musselburgh hats will have neater ends. Great pattern!
I've made 10 and, after seeing this episode, I am ready to cast on another with a skein of Murky Depths yarn I got on a recent trip. It's such a great hat. Thanks, Ysolda!
Thank you for all the work you did figuring out the stitch counts and making the charts. I'm now on my third Musselburgh. This one is helix stripes. I have trouble keeping track of whether I'm on an increase round or not, so I just do spiral increases (4 every round) and decreases, and I find the charts invaluable. It still amazes me that something that looks like a big floppy tube gets transformed into a perfectly proportioned hat!
I’m on my fifth Musselburgh hat. I’ve knit two for myself. One each for my partner and son and this 5th one is for my grandson. Love the pattern and will be knitting more in the future. Thank you for your pattern and helpful tutorials.
Thank you for this simply flexible and great pattern! It's my favorite on-the-go pattern and such a great one for gifts. I'm only on my 3rd one but know there will be future Mbs. I appreciate the version 3 with the description and measurements in order to be creative and make use of stash yarns. 😊
I love this pattern. Thank you for it. I have made one, but I am planning for many more. It is warm and feminine and flexible and useful. Congratulations!!! And good luck!
I'm making my first Musselburgh hat with two different yarns, and I'm really enjoying the easy process. Thank you so much for your videos! They are so helpful!
I've knit one fingering weight Musselburgh and have two more waiting in my queue for Christmas gifts one in fingering and one in worsted. The worsted one I fear will be too warm for NY City but that's what my son chose. Thank you for such a fun pattern!
I knitted a solid + striped half version and because I did not want a folded brim, I opted for one knit row where the transition is before continuing to knit the other half. It folded nicely and stayed put.
Thanks for this update! I’ve knit 5 hats so far with plans for many more! I’ve done couple with the same color throughout and then added a Pom Pom 😄❤️🧶
Thank you for the boot in the pants, I didn't finish the last one, I was ok in the end with the cast on and the crown increases but the issue I had was the crown just kept going out more and more and never dropped down, almost like a round table cloth. You have inspired me to do another one and keep at it. I have some self striping sock yarn that I can use. I love a challenge and I would call this a challenge. Thank you again, take care and Happy Designing.
It will eventually turn into a tube if you trust the numbers in the pattern and keep knitting. It takes a few inches past the last increase round before it’s really hat shaped and not a circle though
Hi, Ysolda. I'm knitting my first Musselburgh. I see why people have fallen in love with the pattern, and I really appreciate your tutorials on getting started and finishing the hat. It took me a number of tries to get the disappearing loop cast-on down, and the tutorial was a lifesaver. Random question: The blue sweater you're wearing in this tutorial is gorgeous. Could you share the pattern, yarn and color? (I did check your Ravelry pages but didn't find it.) I realize that with 16,000-plus followers, you likely don't have time for questions like this, but, either way, many thanks!
Would you consider adding some type of ponytail hole for those with long hair? I always have trouble figuring out what to do with my hair while wearing hats like these - sticking it all inside the hat makes for a giant head :), but hair out and by the neck really gets in the way.
I'm thinking you could leave the cast-on ring open on each end. If that wasn't a large enough opening for the ponytail of the intended recipient, you could start with more stitches in the cast-on, then jump ahead to the part of the pattern that matches the stitch count you decided to start with. Just be sure to jot a note on the pattern to remind you to prepare to end with the same stitch count at the end.
I purchased the pattern and pdf but I can’t change to different sizes on my phone just wondering if I’m missing something Any advice would be greatly appreciated
I need morw skill to knit this hat (dont even know how to knit in the round) but one day i will make this hat and ill make the inside with silk yarn to protect my hair
I can't comment on the origin of Musselburgh, but having traveled to Edinburgh, I heard the city pronounced "eh' din bruh" by the inhabitants. The ending is closer to a shortened "borough" of say Queensborough, than the "burg" of Pittsburgh.
I just started my first one two days also and this video was so much help and answered what I have questions for especially about the increasing and sizes . Thank you for making this video !!!❤❤❤❤❤

Thats wonderful. Im curious how many stitches you have at most in order to fit a baby

Im making my first and I almost frogged it thinking it looked way to small. So glad I saw this. I will keep plugging away! 😅
Thank you very much and I can't wait to make my first one musselburgh hat this winter!

Thank you for part one..have started 2nd half of the hat.
Hello from Swansea, Illinois. I purchased your pattern but have not knit it yet, but am going to soon.
I just bought this pattern and look forward to adding it to my many WIP's😅

You do have to eventually stop the increases. According to your guage and the pattern...
It will eventually turn into a tube if you trust the numbers in the pattern and keep knitting. It takes a few inches past the last increase round before it’s really hat shaped and not a circle though
Love your videos!! I’m on my second Musselburgh hat!!

@@ysoldateague Thank you, Ysolda.
Starting my second one this weekend. I love your videos!
Thanks so much for the update, I think my next one will be using self-striping yarn. What pattern is your beautiful sweater you have on?
These are such good tips, thanks a lot !!!

I bought the pattern but I’m still struggling with it. Do you have a full tutorial on this pattern
Thanks a lot!
This video has been great! This is one of my first projects and it’s been really fun so far. What yarn did you use for your sweater? I love it!
I purchased the pattern and pdf but I can’t change to different sizes on my phone just wondering if I’m missing something
Any advice would be greatly appreciated
