Cluster V Stitch Hat Crochet Tutorial 

I started about a week and a half ago, became obsessed and haven't stopped since.

I love the close-ups on the stitches, and how you aren’t rushed. 👍🏼

Cutest fastest hat ever. Took less than two hours. Clare’s videos are so quick and clear. I did have to giggle at 10,000 face book followers. Guessing you have many more by now.

I really like your tip about joining to the dc instead of the turning chain. You are so right about avoiding the holes.

I have to say....I've enjoyed making this hat. I love how it came out. I also liked how you show how to use the measuring tape in order to get the measurement for the crown of the hat. Its a lot easier than what I've been doing. Thank you for all you do to help and getting these great tutorials out to us. Looking forward to all your tutorials in the future. Happy crochet!

Once again you have made something easy to understand. I was having a difficult time trying to figure out how to connect the rows with the V Stitch. The pattern was very vague and you made it easy. THANK YOU again.

I am like in the middle of a baby beanie, and was literally JUST thinking about how I was going to do maybe 3 rounds of v clusters so it won't look so boring, lol... Only I had no clue how to do that, now I do thanks to you, you lovely young lady :D I love you so much for posting all of your vids!!!

cant get enough of your video's. Have helped me grow so much as I am unable to read a pattern. and am left handed...thank you so much

I LOVE hat! I made it today for the first time. I make your shells hat, the one with a lavender one a md a larger coral one on the video. I love it too. I donate hats to the nursing home where my mom lives and I'm always looking for new hat patterns. My nephew a md his wife are expecting in November and if it's a girl she will be getting one of these too!❤

Thank you so much for so many wonderful patterns...I LOVE to try them all and the details are excellent! You've inspired me to make hats and scarves for the homeless and I thank you for that!

hi there it depends on the yarn that you use , this may help you The mathematical formula for getting circumference if you know the diameter (measurement across hat). Keep making increase rounds until you measure from 1 edge to the other and multiply that number by 3.142 & the answer you get is the measurement of the circumference of the head

As a PS on the V stitch. It was not your pattern that I was having difficulty with just so you know. I appreciate your work very much!

Very cute, I think I will make these for my little baby nephews for Christmas, but add ear flaps to it.

I made this one yesterday and come really pretty. I used Red Heart's With Love. Thanks for the tutorial.

Thank you Clare, I really enjoy your easy to follow crochet tutorials.

Really nice hat pattern. Thank you, very clear instructions, you have beautiful hands.

This looks like a really nice beanie for winter.

Thanks very much!!...I love this stitch, looks fancy and is so simple to do, well YOU make it simple with your great explanations and video...Im in my second hat right now!...I LOVE it!! :)

You are simply the best!! I've made your basic beanie and this cluster v beanie and I love them! Your instructions are clear and precise! Thank you so much for taking your time to teach us the wonderful craft. I'm going to post a picture of my beanies on your FB page.

Thank you for your help:) The mother measured the child's head wrong hence 30" lol I will definitely be using your method from now on!

Wonderful tutorial! I love how beautifully this worked up. Thank you so much!

Hi, you could make each hat neutral colour with a colour for the border or you can use different colours ever 2 rows

Love your tutorials. I've been teaching myself to crochet from your videos!!! Thank you!!!

Love this stitch! I've just made 2 beanies using it and it's so quick! I find it very 'pretty' so i added a little crocheted car to the boy's hat to toughen it up a bit, lol. Thanks for the awesome videos xox

This was a great tutorial! I made a fantastic hat. Thank you.

thanks alot for the tutorials!!! you make our crochet easy and fun!!

To make it slouch and be long at the back, add more rows of the cluster-v, I would say add another 5-8 rows..... depending on how long/slouchy you want the hat

Excellent! Very clean and clear video! Congratulations!

Very easy to follow. Can't wait to try this. You are a great teacher, Clare!

Thanks for the easy to understand video! I made this and it turned out great the first time. :)

hi Claire, just made this one, beautiful , now my new fave and go to. thanks

I really love this pattern. It is very easy for me to do.

It is really beautiful seems hard to make it I will try to do it. Thank you for sharing again.

To make this hat a slouch hat you add more rows of the cluster v to make the hat longer :)

Very nice Clare! I like the textured look without it being too chunky. It's a great look for fall and winter. If you were to increase and decrease the Double V Cluster, how would you do it? Could you make a video to demonstrate that?

Thank you Clare once again for another great tutorial and pattern.I making one now and am really pleased with it.I am always on the look out for easy patterns as I donate to local charities. Moira Batemans Bay

Love all your videos! Was wondering where I can purchase similar cute clay handled crochet hooks?

Have you been doing alot of crochet

Such a cute hat! I couldn't figure out why the pattern (written) wasn't matching up to the video, and I realized...it was a tottally different hat! LOL.... It's a really cute hat. Be great to make baby hats in this pattern for donations.

Maravilhoso ! Amo crochê !!!

Very nice one Clare :)

thank you :)

I am not sure how to decrease this stitch. but I may be able to figure it out .....

Pretty pretty pretty please make this into a messy bun hat??!!

I've made three simple scarves double crocheted out of multicolored yarn and want to make three beanies in a single color to match each of them but try to incorporate a little of the color of the scarf in each. How would you suggest I do that with this pattern without looking to garish? These will be going on our Christmas tree at church for people in need in or community so I'd like to do as many as possible. I'm thinking in preteen, adult lady and man sizes.

I wood like to crochet like you THAK-YOU..

Love all your videos? Was wondering where I can purchase similar adorable clay handled crochet hooks?

hi there, I am sorry but there is not a written pattern for this video yet

I watched your Cluster V stitch video and it is fantastic! I was able to make a hat using the instructions. Do you have the word doc that you show in the video? I can't find it and I like how yours has the amount of stitches at the end of each row. Thank you!!

Благодарю милая!!!

What do you plan to make ?

Free written pattern www.bobwilson123.org/hats.html

similar to the moss in looks because I want a hat to match a moss stitch scarf. Right now, I am doing spiral hats but I said I would try to figure out the moss hmmm this looks similar

Could u make this into a slouch hat??? Or have you done a video for a slouch hat/beret hat???

Where do you measure the head? Do you measure around the forehead to back or forehead to lower back head by neck?

With a finer yarn, this is like a Jewish skullcap called 'yarmulkah' -- or however it's spelled. ;-)
