This stitch is literally perfect for so many things: beanies, scarves, blankets, you can even try this on a purse and it’ll still look cute. Love the ribbed effect because it looks so professional
Info for everyone who has an average sized head: while you chain the first row, grab a beanie that fits your head and make sure the height of your chain is right. 32 stitches turned out to be barely the size of a very snug benie of the person I'm doing this for WITHOUT even folding the bottom, and she's not an adult (she's 16). I had to frog everything. She says it's stretchy, which is true, but it won't stay stretched on your head, so measure everything before you start crocheting.
Thank you SO MUCH for this video. I started learning to crochet 1 week ago and this was my first project. I feel very accomplished and love that I have something useful to show off!
For those of use that have a giant head, I measured my head at about 24 inches( I measured from the bass of my hairline in the back, to the start of it in the front, about where my beanie would rest all the way around) and chained 52 instead of 32 which made the beanie pretty snug on my head
I just made this hat, love it so much! I think I have a average size head, but I found it tight on me as well. I wanted to make a hat for my dad, so I think I will try chain 52. How many rows did you do?
@@pilot1844 because I was just crocheting this for me I wasn’t really counting rows, I just kept putting it up to my head lol, but I do know that every two rows I did was one inch and I used the same yarn in the video. So for 24inches I probably did around 45-48 rows
Love the hat!❤ I'd also like to say that you are the first person out of the many people who have tutorials that I watch who holds their yarn and hook just like I do. It's so easy to watch you! 🥰💜
I’m glad I watched the whole video and read the comments before starting this project. It’s a lovely hat but as a beginner I wouldn’t know how to make it so it would fit. This sounds like maybe a hat for children idk. I love it though and I’m saving it for the future. Thanks so much :)
It seems very intimidating when you first start but if you do a little test run of it you can easily make adjustment. If the amount of rows isn't enough for the circumference of your head but it's tall enough then just add more rows. If you feel like it may be too short then your foundation chain should be lengthened. This pattern seems to be in 4s so measure out about how much longer you need and add 4 stitches until you get that desired height. Since the foundation chain in 32 and you wanted to size up you would go 36 st, 40 st, 44 st, 48 st, 52 st etc...
I’m obsessed! I’d love to see a modification for this to close it off as a nun beanie:) I feel like it would be not too tricky to do but I’ve not yet tried it:)
I just made it and the beanie is ADORABLE!!! Thank you so much for this pattern. You are great at explaining and went perfectly into depth for beginners. It was perfect, height wise, but was a little snug. Next time, I think I will do 36 rows instead! Again, thank you so much!!!🙏😁😊
I love the pattern and decided to make it. I'm on row 30 and it is still WAAYYYYYYY to small to fit around my head. How wide should it be before folding?
I did this too with her other pattern!! I wet it and stretched it as much as I could & that helped it fit better. I'd try that if you want to try & salvage it :)
Lovely stitch but the wool type (i had the same brand/type) made it very tight and definitely too small. I did my best to make the stitches loose as well. Might need more rows if you dont have a small head or need to block it to shape before stitching together :)
I am on my second try with this tutorial but somehow, I keep losing stitches. My SS end keeps going down, or getting shorter on each turn. It looks like a set of stairs lol. I'm not sure what I am doing wrong but I know it's not correct. :)
When she does the herringbone crochet, make sure the loop you insert into is the one furthest on the left that was previously on your hook. And when you then insert into the next stitch (the one immediately after the one you worked into, I was accidentally skipping this because everything was too tight) make sure you stop and yarn over before you go through the three loops on your hook. Also keep a looser tension, I had a similar issue, her yarn makes it hard to see what's going on.
Additionally, make sure you're not accidentally skipping the first and last slip stitches and the last stitches at the bottom of the hat. I missed a few and my row went down by one without noticing.
Why is each row so much smaller than the original 32 stitches? I feel like I’m decreasing each time. What am I doing wrong??? It looks like a herringbone but the whole project curves as it gets smaller.
Love the texture! However, I do have a question. You say to “alternate rows 2 and 3” but I don’t see a difference between the two rows. It looks like both rows are single crochet herringbone BLO. Am I missing something? Thanks!
it's alternating simply because when you turn the beanie after starting a new row, you will either be doing the herringbone first into the SS at the end or starting the SS into herringbone. all rows are basically the same (stitching into the BLO all the way down-which she didn't mention BLO in the 3rd row of the pattern). it's just a matter of how you start that row based on if you are at the top of the hat or bottom. I hope that makes sense!
Thanks for sharing! I'm gonna start my crocheting journey this week (still waiting for my stuff coming from amazon). I found your video and coincidentally I purchased the exact same type of yarn you used in this video but I don't have the same size crochet hook. Is it okay if I use the 8 mm hook one for this project?
Am i the only one that seems to be confused about how to go about alternating Rows 2 and 3? I tried watching and reading the pattern on the website several times and Im still so confused. I am a visual learner so i need to see all the steps in order to know exactly what I am doing. Love how easy the tutorial is but the only thing im lost on is the alternating of rows 2 and 3

I hope that makes sense!
I felt the same confusion. A good close-up at the early stitches might be useful too. Perhaps there are other videos for beanies which use the same pattern that could be helpful to watch. I sometimes make a note of each row I've completed, so I remember what to do next, for each new row. I can be confused sometimes if I don't keep track. It does take a few attempts with a new stitch or project sometimes. Keep trying and you'll soon find your way and be back in your lovely relaxed crochet mode. The narrow end of the work (where the slip stitches are and eventually the bobble will be) is a clue to which row stitches you need to do. If the narrow/bobble end is on your right you slip stitch into the back loop of the first three stitches, then do a single crochet to continue with herringbone stitches to the end. When you reach that point, you will be at the wider end again, so no need for slip stitches to finish this end, just chain 1 and turn. Apart from the first row, whichever row you do (with or without 3 slip stitches) you will always be going into the back loops and finishing off the row with a chain 1 before turning. If, after you've turned, you feel lost, look to see if you're starting at the narrow end again (on your right) where the slip stitches are. If so, do 3 slip stitches, single crochet and continue with herringbone stitches to the end. I just completed three rows and made some notes so I was more sure of what was happening. It's a rather long explanation, but I hope it helps.
26 rows? or 26 groups of rows 2 & 3? I did 26 rows alternating rows 2 & 3 with the quick and thick yarn and it's only 12ish inches. I followed everything just as described in the video. What do I do?
I followed the sizing for “adult” on your blog and it turned out HUGE. I guess I should’ve measured as I went but I don’t have an abnormally small head or anything. Why did it turn out so big? I used a 5 weight yarn and same needle size as instructed.
@@CJDesignblog I’m sorry, I was following the Andes beanie which uses a 5. Not sure how I ended up on this video. I kept a stitch/row counter and everything so I’m not sure what went wrong. I ended up undoing the whole thing.
Love the pattern but the sizing is waaaay off. I didn't read the comments before crocheting, so I guess I'll just finish this one to give to my 6 year old niece lol.
Please do not state it’s for beginners if by the time they we get all 26 rows done it’s not the same size. Had to throw away a whole ball of my chunky yarn. Please advice to count your stitches as u continue
This stitch is literally perfect for so many things: beanies, scarves, blankets, you can even try this on a purse and it’ll still look cute. Love the ribbed effect because it looks so professional
Silly question…how do you count the rows? Is it only the ridges that you count?

I just made this hat, love it so much! I think I have a average size head, but I found it tight on me as well. I wanted to make a hat for my dad, so I think I will try chain 52. How many rows did you do?
U are literally the best!! Thank you

Did you find that 52 chains was too long? I have a bigger head too so I chained 52. But now looking at it, I’m worried it’s way too long.
I’ve never seen this stitch before, I love it! Another great video with clear instructions. Thank you
You are so welcome!

That's how I hold mine also

I LOVE this pattern so much! I would love to make my daughter one! Can you do this exact pattern again, but for toddlers?
I think next time I will add a couple of rows. Mine was cute but didn’t fit. I have an average size head. I absolutely love this pattern!!
Easy to follow, good teacher. Thanks a lot🎉
Beautiful! So you’re slip stitching 3 at both ends of the row?
i'm making this right now Thanks! 😁
10 mm crochet hook is what letter?
I love beanies
How many stitches would I use for child hat or do you have Video for that
Hi there! If you wish to have all sizes, that's included in the paid pattern, link in the description of the video :)
Beautiful you make it look so easy!
Can you show me how to make pompoms
Hi Dani ! My daughter is allergic to wool 😢 What yarn can I substitute? Thank you for your lovely pattern. I love the headband too ! Have a nice day
You can use 100% acrylic!
I use polyester chunky blanket yarn for beanies
How would you go about making it for a baby? I couldn’t find the other sizes for it
Thank you so much❤. Mine came out wonderful. This was perfect for a gift 💝
You’re welcome 😊
I love the pattern and decided to make it. I'm on row 30 and it is still WAAYYYYYYY to small to fit around my head. How wide should it be before folding?
I'm using bulky yarn instead of bulky and so far I'm measuring it on my head to see how big to make it. so far in at row 23 and I'm nowhere close
Gracias por compartir
Están hermosas tus creaciones
Bendiciones❤❤❤❤❤
Thanks
I slip stitched in both end !! Doof!!
I did this too with her other pattern!! I wet it and stretched it as much as I could & that helped it fit better. I'd try that if you want to try & salvage it :)
Would I do the same amount of stitches if I use medium 4 acrylic yarn ?
I love this crochet. ❤
Cj,can u make this in a lighter yarn?
Ty for the totural ❤
😅 wished that you slowed down a bit on the first stiches it seemed pretty confusing
You can actually slowdown the video on your settings ☺️
Amazing stitch and instructions ❤
What size crochet needle did you use? Thanks
Do we have to do this bulky yarn or other yarn that is not bulky ok?
Hello, what’s the length of the hat before closing it?
How do you add pompom and what size needles are you using?
Lovely stitch but the wool type (i had the same brand/type) made it very tight and definitely too small. I did my best to make the stitches loose as well. Might need more rows if you dont have a small head or need to block it to shape before stitching together :)
Beautiful ❤
Great video! Will definitly be making as well as purchasing pom poms! Where do i get the logo thing from?
I love this!

Дякую за відео. Гарна робота
Fab hats!
Can you reshare the link for the Scissors... 3 of the links go to the same crochet hook.
Thank you x
I’ll fix it! ☺️
Gorgeous ❤ on my to do list
Yay! ☺️
Why is each row so much smaller than the original 32 stitches? I feel like I’m decreasing each time. What am I doing wrong??? It looks like a herringbone but the whole project curves as it gets smaller.
Looks like I wasn’t pulling through a single loop before pulling through all three.
How if i needed to add rows to make it bigger would i be able to with the one skein of yarn? Does this pattern use the whole skein?
I love it where did you get the tags?
Love the texture! However, I do have a question. You say to “alternate rows 2 and 3” but I don’t see a difference between the two rows. It looks like both rows are single crochet herringbone BLO. Am I missing something? Thanks!

My poms come with two strings, you can use a button and make them removable, that's what i do!

Mmmm I don’t think sizing is off at all. Did you check your gauge? The hook size and yarn size? 😁
Beautiful but so bad for me that I don't have a hook and a yarn to practice 😢😢and I can't get one coz there's none around here😭😭
Where did you buy the leather tag
I didn’t count my rows does anybody know how wide it’s supposed to be ?
Your voice sounds exactly the same as the person from the channel miss orchid girl and even have the same name!
Is this stitch a yarn eater??
Can i sell these
What size needle
she mentioned 10mm hook🙂
How much is your Pom poms please
Have you ever done this with 2 colors?
Please do not state it’s for beginners if by the time they we get all 26 rows done it’s not the same size. Had to throw away a whole ball of my chunky yarn. Please advice to count your stitches as u continue
Why did you throw away the yarn? It’s still good after frogging it
I would say learn that stitch and practice the stitch before attempting it
This is so fast and hard to follow lol what’s wrong with me
Same but I paused it and it was instantly easier
Lov it❤
