I’m a veteran crocheter and this is the best bucket hat instructions I’ve found! I made my hat with cotton yarn and used the J hook as suggested and it turned out perfect. Thank you!

I love the way you teach, you teach easily and faster I want you to be my crochet teacher i am a girl and I live in Nigeria

Well, I may of gained or lost a stitch in the process, but I finished this hat. It taught me a lot, because I never really know where to put the slip stitch, sometimes it’s right and sometimes it’s wrong. I also get lost with counting the increase stitches. Anyhow, I only started for the first time in my life to crochet six weeks ago, I will definitely be trying this again and I’ll wear the hat I just made. Thanks so much for a great tutorial, I had to replay quite a few times when starting the next round, my dream was to make a bucket hat. Next hat will be even better.. ❤

I love doing yours❤❤❤❤❤

A j hook is 6 mm but i notice this yarn calls for 5.5 mm. I'm wondering if there's a reason for the larger hook? My yarn calls for 5mm so I'm thinking 5.5. Thoughts?

I don't understand what you mean on rows 19-21. Do I do the whole row with 5 stitches with an increase or do I just do the first 5 stitches and the increase on the 6th at the beginning, with hdc for the rest of the row?

Is this supposed to be a baby or toddler bucket hat? It seems a bit small and I’m super confused on why it seems so small I’m on row 9.

I keep messing up with row 3. I should do 1 hdc then 2 hbc for 27 stitches but I end up with 34 stitches...I’ve redone it like 10 times and cant figure out what I’m doing wrong. My row 2 is 18 stitches so I just don’t get it 🤦🏻‍♀️

@MelodyCrochet

You might be working in the second loop of the half double crochet or something. Its ok! Just do a few more stitches with just one hdc where you might expect to do 2 hdc. As long as your row counts are good the rhythm will come with time and it will be great. :) Let me know how it goes, ok?

Then row three starts at 3:40 . For row 3 you alternated one hdc/2 hdc so that you increase 9 stitches total in this row for 27. You continue this way (increasing 9 stitches per row) for the first 7 rows so that you form a flat circle. 36, 45, 54, 63...

Lilys sugar and cream…the larger rough type will replace the acrylic in this hat well all by itself. But, the thinner cottons (like I Love This Cotton and the multicolor Lilys sugar and cream is thinner and drapier and would probably need a smaller hook and more repeats. I’ll do a video with one of those tomorrow!

I would say yes. Two points will make a difference. Use a thinner worsted weight yarn. Maybe Hobby Lobby I Love This Cotton or Caron Simply Soft. Just nothing that looks too thick. And also, go down one hook size. I hope you will tag me online if you post a pic! @melodycrochet

How did the second try go? If the original circle at the beginning is ruffling then you might have continued on with your increases for more than one row. Perhaps a stitch marker to mark the first stitch of the row? Best luck!!!
