Thank you so much for this tutorial! I am an avid crocheter but I usually stick to making clothes so this was a perfect challenge for me to get outside my comfort zone! I also wanted to note a modification I made that may help people out if they don’t have wire at their disposal. I just doubled up on yarn (using two strands starting at the base of the brim) and it kept the brim of the hat stiff enough to keep its shape!
This is great! I followed this tutorial “experimentally” as I used chenille wool which is why I had to increase the increases for the hat, and reduce the increases for the brim (a lot of try and error 😅). But all in all this video ist great as a guiding line. My hat now looks like a giant upside down ice waffle, ready to be decorated into a hat fitting the witch of Hansel and Gretel and her house made of sweets 😊🎀🍪🧁🍫🍬
I used a cardboard circle and then traced a slightly 1/4 inch smaller circle and cut 2 out then glued them together and painted them black which made a perfect brim to crochet around
This makes a great hat. I works also for my all-in-one comfort dolls. Just replace hdc by sc. And start flat until the first brim, after about an inch: the brim must be in circles (close with sl st). The flat start: crochet 2 sc. Ch1 and turn. 2sc in first, 1sc. Ch1 and turn. Etc. After an inch close with sl st.
Just started one for my daughter I find it easier to use a marker when doing a half double it helps a lot .thanks for the great pattern God bless stay safe
I just happened to come across your channel and saw this tutorial on this Witches Hat. I've seen many tutorials on this project, but I have to say that this is by far the cutest one I've ever seen. Well Done 👏
Me encanta!!❤ está muy bien explicado, gracias a los subtítulos porque no se inglés. Pero el vídeo es muy claro y fácil de entender. Me encanta! Gracias!!🎉
Adorable! I'm making one for my 7 yr old. I'm using thicker yarn and a 5.75 mm hook. For the ridges, I used back post HDC, was easier for me. Love the pattern tho. 💚 Thanks
I can't wait to do this! New subscriber here (and I won't skip the ads) so glad I found your channel. Looking through your videos there are many projects I'll be doing! Thank you for sharing your talent and time!
I’ve just finished making this and it’s brilliant , I had to adjust it slightly due to having a big head 😂 but I’m so pleased with it , going to add a dangly spider to the top and a ribbon around the band and I’ll be set for Halloween this year 🐈⬛🧙♀️
I hope you don’t mind I share this link with a photo of mine finish product on a Facebook group as I’ve got so many compliments and other crocheters wanted to do this! Thank you so much for this video! I’m off to make 4 more Have a blessed day 💜
im almost done with mine! only problem is that its super big and super floppy haha, found out it was using a 5.5 mm rather than your 5 mm lol. and i guess i was doing to too loose, i dont mind it too much, it adds character to me. im a wizard with a extra floppy hat
For people who found the increasing in whichever stitch kind of awkward: What I ended up doing is this (HDC 9, INC) ×2 then, (HDC 5, INC, HDC 10, INC, HDC 5) for the next round for example. I split my "even" rounds up so the increases were kind of offset if that makes sense :)
I LOVE your channel and the videos you make, they are super easy to follow for me as a starter! Do you have any patterns for gloves that dont have fingertips? If you could ever make a video for that I would love to watch it.
Floral crafting wire for the brim perhaps? For each ridge too? Might make the hat more formable? Just some thoughts I am thinking of trying...🤔 Happy Halloween 🎃 Thanks for the cool pattern👍
I found metal rings at the family dallar there 1.25 you get 3 sizes with it I thought that was great they work very well for the rim of the hat .I have 2 more to make for my granddaughter and grandson .
Amei esse chapéu de bruxa, trabalho com educação infantil e gostaria muito de fazer, conseguiria traduzir para o português? Por favor? Parabéns pelo trabalho ❤😍
Im having such trouble pulling my loop through after finishing the first hat ridge, slip stitching the ends, and folding it over. Seems like my loop orientation is flipped from yours: my loop is on the outside once the ridge is folded, and my string is on the inside. And when I try to just slip stitch anyway to move on, it makes this ugly line in the ridge. Am I slip stitching wrong?
I know you probably won't respond, but I figured it never hurt to ask. If I wanted the point of my hat shorter, do you think it would look alright if I took one row out of the repeating rows? Or how else would you recommend I shorten the hat slightly? I'm wanting to make it into a whimsical sun hat out of raffia yarn for working in my garden during the summer.
Hi, I want to buy the pattern and I see that it’s available in 2 sizes, but I can’t see what the sizes are. Would the smallest size fit a child/toddler?
I can’t see we’ll when you’re doing the half double crochet through the back loop only it looks like you’re going through the entire V…. I’m sort of confused
Im finding it difficult to source that tubing here in New Zealand. I tryed wire bit it keeps collapsing in on this self when i crochet around it. Any tips on what else i can use?
Hi Carol, they do, it is in the garden department.

I know everyone will say “everywhere!!” But when would I ever wear this?! I need help guys ! Bc I want to be one of those girls who wear this hat everywhere
I always struggle to get started on something new. After you slip-stitch into the 1st double crochet stitch and chain one, do you go into the same stitch that you just slip stitched into? Idk if that makes sense but I’m having a hard time with starting round 2. I bought the pattern and watched your and other videos and started over and over and I can’t figure it out.
Hi Madisen, we are actually using half-double crochet for most of the rounds. When you start round 2, yes be sure to so a hdc into where the chain is coming out of. Because that was our first st of round1, it will also be first st of round 2.
I was thinking you could use old glow sticks with the bracelet attachment! Great way to reuse... wouldn't do this if selling but I'm going to try it just for me.
