Standard Rib Knit (Knit 2 pegs and Purl 2 pegs) for 1.5-2inches. I knit 10 rows in Yellow for the brim.
When the ribbed brim is finished, knit 7 rows in yellow. Change color to orange and knit 15 rows.
Next change the color to white. Knit 18 rows of white and follow with a gathered cast off. In total 50 rows will be knit.

Thank you for posting this pattern! I love candy corn and this hat will be precious on my great-nephew!
This is just THE cutest hat!!! I just have to try knitting this!!
Thank you for posting this. Very very cute. My family and I are also in Oregon. Good place to be. Thank you again,
Found your site today. What a cute candy corn hat. Am going to pin this for a fall project for grandchildren. Thank you for sharing.
I am confused which loom size I should be using, a 36 peg with 50 rows is way to large for an infant/child. I am using the Loops & Threads® Knit Quick™ Knitting Loom Set from Michaels.
How many do you cast on it does not say
Here’s how it’s done https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBZKk9wAgbA
It’s not too large if you are doing the u-knit stitch.
Thank you for candy corn pattern. My 1 year old granddaughter looked so cute wearing it on Halloween day.
I started but then came back and in the comments you say is a U knit. I started the rib knitting with E wrap already. Would you recommend switching to U wrap for the rest of the hat or just keep going with e wrap? I’m thinking the knitting will be too loose
E-wrap would be to loose!
Is the U stitch going to give it a less gapped appearance?
It’s much tighter.
When I make a loom hat, it comes out loose, like “waffeley.” The bars between the stitches are too long. Even when I add a 2nd or 3rd piece of yarn, the looseness remains. Any ideas?
I am knitting a hat similar to this and, being new at this, I see a problem. I see a definitely diagonal line in the hat, I’d like to post a picture to show you, but don’t see how I can do that. Thank you Denise, love your beginner video!
You can try to tighten the stitch or loom around a little looser so it is not as noticeable.
