This is my go to crochet hat pattern. Use bulky, super bulky or 2 strands of #3 or #4. Is easy and works up quickly. For super bulky, see around 20:45. Etsy Shop: www.etsy.com/shop/LogCabinSti...
Thank you so much for your video. I make hats/beanies for the homeless and cancer patients in my area and this hat was so easy and fast to make. You've made my crocheting these hats so much easier!
I gained my confidence back for crochet. Thought I sucked at it but I made this hat in one day and it turned out well. Thank for the tutorial, you're a good teacher with a patient and relaxing voice.
Very nicely done! Nice warm hats! Video was very clear--showed the stitching well, your explanation was clear and easy to understand. I will be watching more of your videos!
I made one last night with wool ease thick and quick. Used every bit of yarn didn't have enough for the crab stitch. Seems fine. Definitely going to do it again.
I’ve been looking for a video of this exact hat style & you explained how to do it perfectly! my hat turned out so cute 🥺 I can’t thank you enough for sharing this
Just finished my hat with 5 chunky. Looking for a flower to garnish. Thank you for this easy to follow pattern for I am making hats for cancer patients. This pattern is so fast they will get a big bag for the holidays. Have a peaceful day!😍
I have made a number of hats using this tutorial, so thanks so much for that! I was working on trying something a little different on this last hat- doing a couple of rows in a different color- but I get like a diagonal line where the two rows don't quite match up. Any suggestions on how to make that look a little cleaner? Or would your tutorial be more just for a single colored project?
Glad you enjoy making this hat! I would say this is more for one color (or skein) of yarn which could be a solid color or variegated or stripes, etc. If you want to use different colors, don't do continuous rounds, but make each round individually - chaining 2 or 3 at the beginning of each round, then join with a slip stitch to the top of the ch 2 or 3 at the end of each round. Hope that makes sense. Thanks for watching and take care!
can you please help me? I tried a different beanie pattern recently, and it had me slip stitch 'into the top stitch of the end of each round' and then chain two, and then begin that same pattern of double crochet stitches that you are doing. Afterwards, I had a weird seam where the slip stitches were going through my hat. why did that happen and why did the pattern have me do that? i'm so frustrated
Hello...you can slip stitch at the end of a row, then chain two (or three) to start the next row. It does make kind of a diagonal slant seam up thru the hat. You can especially see it when you are using yarns that change colors....like cakes. That is why I came up with this pattern, so there is no seam. But either way will work. Hope this helps! Thank you for watching!
These hats fit my husband. But if you need to make it bigger you could try a K hook or I would still use a J hook and yes add more stitches at the beginning. I would start with 12 (add 2 more dc in the first round). Then maybe add a row or two of the hdc. You may need more than 1 skein of yarn. Thanks for watching!
@@donnabecreates Thank you for replying. I enjoy your channel and am trying to make more gifts. I will try to start with 12 stitches since lately my projects are coming out small. Keep crocheting and God bless!
Hi Donna. My hat circumference only got to about 5 inches when I got to 50 stitches. I increased again to 60 stitches and it's not quite 7 inches. I must crochet tightly. If I increase again, the crown will be too big. Any ideas? I'm new to this. Thank you!
Hi Grace! Just double checking-are you using #5 bulky weight yarn and a J crochet hook? If so, I would go up a hook size, try a K, if still too small try a L hook. Other thing you could do is start with 12 stitches instead of 10, increase as normal - your 2nd round would have 24 sts., 3rd - 36, 4th - 48, 5th - 60. Let me know if this helps. Thanks for watching my video.
@@donnabecreates Hi Donna. Thanks for your reply. I increased my hook size to a K and the hat came out perfectly. My sister loves it. I used bulky number 5 reflective yarn
