When you do a slip stitch each round, do you go into that at the end of each round before you end off with another slip stitch? I’m confused. Is it considered 18th stitch when you counted for the second round ?
It looks great! Can’t wait to make it myself

If I’m using a thinner yarn… I have to do more rows of increase right?

After you did the one decrease row, how many more rows of double crochet did you do until you were finished?

I did 3 more rows of double crochets with the grey yarn
When you start crotcheing downwards, do you still do a slip stitch at the end of each round?
@kxthe

Yes! You always connect the round with a slip stich and then chain three to do the first double crochet of the next round

So after the fifth round of increasing ever other double crochet am I doing two rounds of only one double crochet in each stitch ?
@kxthe

after you increased you are gonna do as many rounds of just double crochets until you´ve reached the point where your eye slit is gonna be. For me that were 7 rounds. So 5 rounds of increasing and then 7 rounds of normal double crochets in each stich. So I had a total of 12 rounds at that point.
Doing this balaclava as a Christmas present hehehe 🙏😂

In the beginning, you did the first row of one double crochet and one increase. After that you said to keep increasing, but is it the same one double and one increase or is it all increases until it fits?

After the first round of increases (which was 1 double crochet, one increase) the next round will be (1 double crochet in the next 2 stitches and then a increase) and the third round will be (1 double crochet in 3 stitches and then a increase) and you continue like that. I used this beanie tutorial to make the top of mine - kzread.info/dash/bejne/f3iDw86MlJOaYps.html

Hi, how much yard did you use?
It's a good tutorial but I got lost I wish you could have been a bit more detailed on the technical bit
cute
In the video you said you did 5 rounds, did that include this first one you did in the video?

Yes! But as I said just look how many rounds you need until it fits your head and remember that it will stretch a bit

Yes I did 5 rows of increases and then I continued to crochet in every stich. So no increasing and no decreasing. Once I reached a bit longer than chin length I did one row of decreases to make the neck part a bit tighter :)

I think you are doing too many increases, you should increase 12 per round. so you should adjust the increases with each round, the 1. round every other stitch, the second round every third stitch, the fourth round every fourth stitch, the fifth round every fifth stitch

Once you get to the desired length of the crown place stitch markers were you want your eye slits to be and then connect the two ends of the round by single crocheting and then slip stitching it together. Then continue with the double crochet patter as normal
