Camdyn Cable Hat FREE Crochet Pattern Video Tutorial 

I just got up to row 15 and figured it out so I thought I'd try explain it differently. So. First chain 2. Then we have the cables right away so you want to skip the first two that are facing the direction you're working (im left handed so they're facing right if you're right handed they will be facing left) then you want to treble crochet around the next two that are facing the opposite way and then treble crochet around the first two that you skipped. This will give you a twist. Then double crochet in the 4 slip stitches from the previous round. And for sizing I just measured it around my head when I did my chain and kept increasing it by 8 until I got the right length for my head, I crochet really tight so I ended up needing 120 to be the right size for my head. And I'm going to just keep trying it on until I get the right height for my head. I hope this helps, I'll finish row 15 and then see what row 16 looks like. Fingers crossed that I'll be able to figure out how to finish this. If you want I could also send you a pictures that might help too

@@sarastockton14 Hi Sara, thank you so much for this information. I really, really appreciate it. This is what I've worked out: I started with a count of 88 chains to fit an adult. I prefer to leave out rows 5 & 6 to make the hat shorter. After row 7, every 8 rows are the same. (Actually, every 4th row is the same except that you alternate the start with a 2dc or a fptr). For examples rows 9, 13 & 17 are all dc of every stitch. Rows 10, 14 & 18 all bring the cables to each other. Rows 11, 15 & 19 are all crossing the cables. I hope this makes sense! I started decreasing at row 23 by working 2dctog for every 2dc. Row 24 reduces the 2dc again. For Row 25 I did 2dctog for every stitch. To finish, I wove the yarn in and out of every stitch with a tapestry needle, pulled it together and stitched. I'm really new to crocheting and this may or may not be correct! Like you, I'm left-hand too so it can be a bit of a challenge to mirror image the videos 😋 Thanks again for sharing what you worked out. I really appreciate it.

My god I found this pattern so confusing...now I’m trying the decreases for the third time...😢

@@sionesfoundation thank you so much for explaining step by step. I really like this hat and I just started to crochet it. ✌️cross my fingers. Let see how it goes. Thank you one more time

What I found most confusing and frustrating is having to jump back and forth between the video and the written pattern I think the problem after row 14 might be a misprint? I’m thinking it should say repeat rows 9-4 until….

yesss i need to see the ends of the rounds :(( its the most important part tbh. and ive been crocheting for 13 years !!

Me too!

Me too

Me too. Super frustrated now. Got through the whole hat and this.

I'm so glad you like it! Honoured to be added to your project folder. :)

Thank you so so SO much! :) You're very kind!

Don't bother trying it because the pattern doesn't work and there is no response from the many pleas for help.

I cant understand the written pattern for this too sorry - beginner at intermediate patterns! Any help would be really appreciated!

Me too! I’m stuck!

Same here. Made different sizes, all very off, too big. I am a very experienced in crocheting Love the pattern but sizes are are off, that messes up the pattern.

Me too 😭

You can find that in the written pattern in her blog. I'd recommend going one seize down. I'm making the child size for and adult woman, otherwise it comes out too big.

I've messaged the page on Instagram and commented on their post about this and they haven't got back! Looks like I'm stuck with a headband too!

@@amandak6698 Hey Amanda! The creator actually messaged me back through Etsy when I asked her. I will reply here with her response!

The decrease goes like this: dc2tog - Double Crochet 2 Stitches Together: Yarn over, insert hook into stitch, yarn over and pull through stitch, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on hook, yarn over, insert hook into next stitch, yarn over and pull through stitch, yarn over and pull through 2 loops on hook, yarn over and pull through last 3 loops on hook This helped me a lot, I hope it helps you too!

dc2tog is kinda like doing half a double crochet (yarn over, insert hook, yarn over and pull through, yarn over and pull through the first two loops then STOP) and then starting ANOTHER double crochet in the next stitch

For that second one, you do those same half a double crochet steps, and then you yarn over and pull through all three remaining loops. The end result is kinda like 1.5 double crochets and only 1 stitch for the next row when you get around to that point. You've replaced 2 stitch spots with essentially 1 stitch

Hi Sam! I'm glad you reached out. Have you found the video helpful when you see me getting into the cable part? Post stitches and cables can be tricky when you're first learning. If you'd like to try loosening your stitches I would suggest switching to a larger hook (I find it easier than trying to adjust my tension with the same hook). I hope that helps! :)

@@lakesideloops4327 thank you for sharing this pattern, but so many of us are not clear on how to do the decrease with this cable hat. Would you be so kind as to help us out and please explain the decrease process. A video would be even better for us visual learners. Thanks again!

Update I figured it out and was pretty easy afterwards. Thanks for the video and the pattern enjoyed making it and planning to make a couple more!

Did you figure out how to do row 15

No it doesn't
