The trick to finishing a loom knitting hat is to ensure the loom is turned upside down.
- Cut the strand at the end of the project about 24" long.
- Feed the strand through a tapestry needled and use the needle to scoop off the loops and slide down the strand.
- Once all are collected, pull tight and the top of the hat will finish off beautifully.
- Sewing the top permanently shut by crisis cross across the top of the hat to pull the hole shut.
- Sink the needle down through the top of the and hat and secure on the inside of the hat.
- Add a pom if you wish.

Where can I get this
Ann Feist says
Something I learned when finishing loom hats. Move a loop to top of next peg, alternating all the way around. Finish off. You now have 1/2 the number of loops to gather up on your needle and pull. This makes the final gather less bulky.
I know I didn’t describe it well. Hope you can understand what I’m trying to say.
