Tip: If you feel that the chain start doesn‘t „feel“ right, you can look up how to do a foundation row. This is definitely one of the times that it can make all the difference. TL YarnCrafts did a wonderful tutorial for foundation dc. ;)
That stitch you used for the first DC in each row is interesting - I've never seen it before. It seems cleaner than a normal turning chain and could make joining those edges a little easier. Looking forward to trying it!
I'm so glad you added in the ear part. It's the only reason I wanted to make this hat. So thank you for not leaving it out. It's a very cute hat.
Accidentally made it into a bucket hat, idk what i did wrong but it's cute lol thank you for the tutorial!

I just want to say thank you for the clear instructions and the clear zoom in's while you work. I've always struggled with stitching seams of double crochet rows, and now I know how to do it thanks to this video. This will help me when I make this hat, and also in future projects!🥰

Thank you for the video! This is the 3rd beanie I've made from your tutorial. I love how you make the ribbing on this one, it's my first time doing it like that :)
I love this pattern! The only thing I’ll do differently on my next one is stitch up the side, tie off, then place that seem in the middle before stitching up the top. That way the seem will be in the back and not the side. Your tutorial is perfect!
I love how you made the beginning chain in every row. I've never seen it like that and I love how it looks. I'm thinking about using it for most of my projects now so ty💙

Made it all the way to the ears...without actually showing how it's done, yes, as a crocheter for many , many years, I got confused. "Mimicking" isn't the same as actually doing it. Don't know why the process is escaping me while so many other commenters "got it," but I'll either keep working at it until I get ears, or I search for a tutorial on how to create these ears, LOL! Just confused as to why the KEY feature of this beanie isn't actually worked in the video, but instead, I'll show you how I did it without actually doing it...strange.
Great tutorial, thank you!

@@Thepresident498 hey! ive been making these beanies for awhile... and from the ones I've made, even or uneven numbers shouldn't matter! but, you should make sure that your not doing to many loops on the second row (like going into one more than once) because it makes the beanie get wider and wider. I've had this happen multiple times, and had to start over. but good luck!

How do I change the size?😊❤️
Im making mine right now and I may not get a response before I reach the point where ill be as far as the video and ill just see what happens but mine is kinda weird. My crocheting looks right and is actually surprisingly neat for me. The problem comes with the size of it before the joining step. Im at 11 rows and mines only 4 1/4 inches. I guessed that adding on the 12th row will get me just barely to 4 3/4 inches. Thats not near her 6. Should I add another few rows to add one more color stripe or judt leave it at 4 3/4 inches?
Thanks for this! I could not get the sewing bit but it looks good regardless~

does anyone have any tips for joining DC seams with fuzzy/chenille yarn? i might just need a more pointed hook to prevent the loops im trying to pick up from slipping off but im also just having a hard time identifying the right loops
My stripes aren't coming together very well. They look "separated" by the alternate color. Any idea why this could be happening?
Its my first crochet and i got the first row done in one day bit it looks different ccompared to hers. I dont understand where she put the hook through the chain. The double crochet thing is very difficult but i keep trying 👍🏻
Loving the tutorial! 💜 I only have size 3 yarn available right now, so I was wondering if I could use that instead of a worsted yarn type? Or do you think it's too thin for beanies?

at 8:50 are we suppose to put it through the single back loop or both the loops?
does anybody know of a tutorial that shows something similar to the ear part at the very end? also are we tightening on both the front and back sides? im feeling a little lost
I was wondering do you have to use the double stitch? I hold my needle and yarn all in my right hand and it makes it really hard to do. so can I use the single stitch and still get the same results?

You can change the stitches. If you substitute 2 sc rows for 1 dc row, you don't even need to change the measurement. 2 post sc rows for 1 post dc row at the ribbing as well.

hey Cherilyn! love the video. My hat is turning out wonderful so far, it looks lovely. But, there is one, rather major, issue with my piece. I noticed one of the ends kind of forming a slant in the beginning, which I thought would even itself out. It did not. I have made it 14 rows in, and there is about a 45-degree slant on one end of my piece. I'm not 100% sure what I have done wrong and I've tried troubleshooting online, but to no avail. I would appreciate your feedback! Thanks for your time.

Hi! Thank you so much! It sounds like on that end, at least 1 st is missing. Although it could more likely be 2 sts if it's 45 degree. Does your last row have the same st number as row 1? If not, you may have missed the first st at the very least. I hope this explains the problem 🥰

how can i take my head size 🧍🏻♀️
Hello!!! So excited to make this, thank you for sharing :D I was just wondering how I could go about measuring the dimensions of the hat. For example, with the hat you made being 10 inches wide, does that mean the diameter of your whole head is 20 inches? Do I measure exactly or do a little more because I want the beanie to be a bit stretchy-er? Thank you :)
@CherilynQ
Жыл бұрын
Hi! Thanks for asking. If the beanie width is 10 inches, when it's being worn, it'll be a circle measuring 20 inches in circumference, not in diameter. It might be easier if you just make the beginning chain and then wrap it around your head to measure it. If you want it stretchy, I think some acrylic yarns can help achieve that. Although it depends on the actual yarn, I'm afraid you'd need to look into that more. You can also try using a slightly bigger hook. It should help too!

why does my ribbing keepo getting wider even though i decreased??? plz
I am THE WORST knitter/crocheter in the whole wide world. I tried this tutorial with a bulky yarn (because it had sparkles on Christmas mix of colors and there is a kid who loves cats) and for some reason at a certain point I realized the yarn was finishing. When I looked closer, the "hat" had spread out from it's initial row in a nice fan shape, wide enough to be a skirt :))) Trust me, the kid did try it on as skirt. We settled on turning it into a scarf with a nice button. I am so happy with my result, although it couldn't be further from the initial idea.
I didn’t make it big enough for my head shape 😭 (still on the first layer). Should I add more length in the other end and then come back to the other side to add the 2nd color? I’m a beginner idk

slip stiches instead of double crochets? Its possible but you need more rows because slip stich rows are thinner than dc rows
