The Loom Knit Double Wrapped Adult Hat is double wrapped and not double-stranded.
The yarn is called Bernat Wavelength where there is a subtle transition between colours which works out lovely. However, if you double strand the loom (using two yarns at the same time), you will most likely lose the look of the how the yarn is intended to appear in the project.
This means you will need to wrap the loom twice between rounds. For example, when you cast on, you need to wrap the loom four times. The bottom two strands go over the other two and over the peg at the same time. For the next round, you will eWrap the loom twice again and then knit.
Double Wrapping makes the stitches look more uniform and is tighter in tension as well. You will have enough yarn to make a pom-pom.

Thank you for the review. I am in love with this yarns colour variety and colour
distribution. My favourite for now on smaller wearable items such as the hat
you have made. The colour distribution appears less like large bands and it
is fascinating to see where certain concentrations of chroma happen on these
items. Keep up the amazing work Mikey! We soooo appreciate your talent!

typo -- "for the next wrong" looks like it should be "for the next round". Thanks!
