This has been one of the best patterns and video. I had not thought about counting backwards to find the first stitch join. It is a very easy tutorial and pattern. Thank you
I'm learning to crochet and we're making baby hats for children in the hospital. Thank you SO much for these clear, easy to follow instructions! Out of the couple of hats I've managed to do already this one is by far the best looking one I've finished!
To all absolute beginners, do not dislike this video because it’s too “hard” or “fast”!!!! I only started crochet yesterday because I wanted to make hats for charity. This video was going “fast” so I got frustrated and disliked it. But common sense hit me and I decided to watch a video explaining some of the crochet vocabulary like slip knot, chain, slip stitch, single crochet, etc. (I watched only 2 videos of Made With Love by Glama). Then, I did happyberry’s baby hat. I suggest using her video if you’re a beginner because her hand and finger movements, and what she does to the yarn can be clearly seen. But when I was done, it seemed too airy and wide for my taste so I decided to do this next. I changed the play speed to 0.75 and I followed along very easily and quickly. I used Red Heart’s medium (4) acrylic yarn and a USH8/5.00 MM Susan Bates aluminum hook. The hat only took less than 2 hours and I barely have any crochet experience. Changed my dislike into a like immediately and felt very sorry that my idiotic and ignorant self disliked this wonderful video at first.
Anika its not that its hard or too fast. Just for beginners its difficult. I did my first hat with this video and after watching some other videos I realized this wasn't a good one to start off with.
Hi thank you. I am a new crocheter. I like to try different patterns considering me being new. I found this fairly simple. I joined a group to do for the underprivileged. Made blankets now enjoying cutie little hats. Take care love from South Africa
I have been crocheting only 1 year. Self taught from youtube! You are one my FAVORITES to get patterns and learn from!! I use this as a go to for hats I am donating to the nursery at our hospital...adorn with a little daisy or little bear ears- so cute it makes me puke!!!
Oh my goodness so adorable! My granddaughter asked me to make stuff for a friend who had a 1 1/2 lb baby who is now 4 lbs. I was unsure how big to make it. Then I came across this and it’s wonderful! Thank You Mikey
You are an awesome teacher. I have made the whole set in 1 day. I intend to see who needs them most and then I'll make as many as I can. Thank you for making it sound so easy. I did wonder why you didn't do a magic ring to start. I am using it now for my next set. I didn't like the hole in the top. Now they're perfect!!!! Thank you Mikey
Mikey!!!! Mikey!!!! This was a very good tutorial and I was able to do several hats for donation to our local women's care centers! You did extremely well with the visual of each stitch and you kept your pace at an "easy-to-work-with-you".... thank you 😊
Great video and pattern for high beginners. I see in the comments that true beginners find this difficult. They need to start with the basics, learn the vocabulary and practice on a single crochet rectangular pattern like a dishcloth or scarf.
I just finished this in a couple of nights. I’m an absolute beginner and started a granny square blanket for my baby that is due in a month. It will NOT be done in time so I chose this hat to have something completed. Even as a lefty this was easy to follow. I used chunky soft yarn so the beginning was hard to see and looks lumpy. Still very proud. Thanks for showing us!! PS - did you know the dollar tree sells yarn?!
Thank you so much!!! I’ve been looking for some crochet patterns for my brother’s childhood best friend’s baby, but so much videos have weird sizing and just confused me much!! So thanks for the simple and fast hat!
I did this in the grey camo Caron simply soft, one of my absolute favorite multicolors shades. Pretty easy, it goes a little quick but I just pause and back up like I do with all patterns so I got it done easily.
This is great, but I don't understand the pattern, when it's written round 4 size 3-4 pounds only, does that mean that the other sizes would continue with what the last round was? It skips from round 3 to round 6 for the larger hat instructions. Do I need to keep increasing until round 6? Thanks!
I don't know what size you are working on. After Rnd 3, you will continue to the size you are doing. If you are not doing the 3-4 lbs size, skip the instruction as it states 3-4lbs only. If you are not doing that size, skip to the next instructions Sizes 5- 6lbs, 7 - 9 and 10-12 lbs instruction. Follow what the paragraphs are saying of which size it's focused on. Skip the instructions where it states ONLY if you are not doing that size, it doesn't apply to you.
Do you have an infant crochet pattern for a bulky yarn? Right now I improvised the preemie 3-4 lbs and used bulky yarn with a 6.5 crochet hook to make a newborn hat.
My cousin is a nurse and today asked me if I could make a newborn hat for a baby she's caring over. I've made crochet hats, but never a baby sized hat so I was at a loss. Thank you for this video :)
You are a good teacher. I learned from you to never chain in to the chain 2 of each round. It was good to watch you. Is there a way I can print the pattern because I cannot follow quick enough nor write down the instructions fast enough.
Betty Stasny There's a link to the Yarnspiration website in the description box where he got the pattern. I recommend printing it and putting it in a binder sheet so that you can mark the rows as you go with a whiteboard/dry erase marker. It has been very helpful to me to do it that way :)
I love the style and it’s super easy to follow but I feel that it looks way to small to fit over a baby’s head I did the biggest size that was shown, I think I should keep going up to 4/5 single half double crochet then a double half crochet.
Loved your tutorial. I make Amigurumis and even through I know and work the correct increase process, with a Magic Circle, I find that my first 3 rounds are puckered and the work does not lay flat. I've tried not carrying the tail so that there's less thickness in those first rounds, but that hasn't made a difference. I've tried working a little loser, but that hasn't helped. The work still has a pucker and somewhat torpedo shape. I'm at my wits end. Can you suggest something please ? Thank you in advance. Ginny
Makes up a gorgeous hat, I added a brim of a different color to fold up and a matching pom pom on top. But unfortunately I think this will be way too small for my newborn based off the average newborns head circumference. How can I make it again but bigger? I used a 4.5m hook with normal/relaxed tension 😬
I ,like the hat. I had 40 stitches in each row after the increase, but my seem is not straight. It looks fine when I lay it flat. Not sure what happened.Idead!
4.5mm is sometimes listed as a #7 Crochet Hook. Also, depending on your tension, I would try both the 4.25 (G) and the 5.00 (H), and see which measurement is closest to the size that you wish to make.
for the 7-9# what is the final count... going from 36 for 5-6# going 1hdc x3 + 2hdc...is more than 40 total increase...What am I doing wrong OR is the count more than 40. Thank you.
I love this pattern and they look super cute. But im finding they are coming up so small! I made a 7lb hat for a 6lb baby and didnt fit at all was way to small!! Any advice???
tinmanlover1994 Wow, someone who weighted less than me! I weighted 2 lb with 5 oz, my mom had no idea what clothes to put on me since at the time there was no such thing as preemie sizes. A nice neighbor who was a seamstress made all my baby clothes. I'm turning 24 this year.
The Gauge for this pattern is: 14 sc and 15 rows = 4” [10 cm]. So, I would start with a 4.00 mm Crochet Hook, and work your way up until your Gauge matches the one that I gave you. I hope this helps!
melody maben newborn is about 14 inches around, and so 7 inches if measured like he did it in the video. about 16 for 3 month. Those are the 50 percentile measurements. I do a lot of hats :-)
Oh man....I'm completely lost. Can anyone refer a good beginner tutorial that's much slower? I'm a beginner crocheter and making baby hats for our NIC unit thanks
It's kind of annoying when people say that he's going to fast because no offence but not all of us a beginner's and there are so many beginner friendly videos out there where they go so slow and so it's nice to actually see videos that are not painfully slow for us that know how to crochet

For those who say he's going too fast, go to settings at top right of screen, select playback speed, go as slow as you like.

Thank you for these hat videos. I've made 2 and getting better with practice
Making this for my friend’s new baby boy!
OK.ok ... iv got it 😅 thanks for the lesson 🎉
Ty clear great instructions. Will make cute hats. ❤️
Any tips for preventing the line left when joining each round? Thank you.
I did this in the grey camo Caron simply soft, one of my absolute favorite multicolors shades. Pretty easy, it goes a little quick but I just pause and back up like I do with all patterns so I got it done easily.
I am new at this and look for simple how to Videos. this one was great and I made my first hat. awesome teaching. I shall tag this as a favorite!

I want to crochet a hat for a relative and this was very useful! Tysm!
I enjoy the way he teaches these crochet stitches but where do I find a slightly bigger size for a 4 or 5 month old?
Do you have an infant crochet pattern for a bulky yarn? Right now I improvised the preemie 3-4 lbs and used bulky yarn with a 6.5 crochet hook to make a newborn hat.
Wondering if this turned out to be the correct size?
Were can a get the pattern?
Your explanation and directions are extremely easy to follow. Finished one cap while watching your video.👍🏼
My cousin is a nurse and today asked me if I could make a newborn hat for a baby she's caring over. I've made crochet hats, but never a baby sized hat so I was at a loss. Thank you for this video :)
If it's too fast, I stop the video & start up again when I'm ready!

You are saying double crochet but you are doing hdbc so I hope it's all hdbc
I love the style and it’s super easy to follow but I feel that it looks way to small to fit over a baby’s head I did the biggest size that was shown, I think I should keep going up to 4/5 single half double crochet then a double half crochet.
Do you have a pattern for adult size caps?
Loved your tutorial. I make Amigurumis and even through I know and work the correct increase process, with a Magic Circle, I find that my first 3 rounds are puckered and the work does not lay flat. I've tried not carrying the tail so that there's less thickness in those first rounds, but that hasn't made a difference. I've tried working a little loser, but that hasn't helped. The work still has a pucker and somewhat torpedo shape.
I'm at my wits end. Can you suggest something please ? Thank you in advance. Ginny
Me too, what did I do wrong?
Can regular medium weight yarn be used instead of simply soft?
I wouldn't use that on a Newborn Baby's Head, because it is so delicate. I would stick with what is recommended, in this Tutorial.
Thank you
instead of worrying about stitch counts could i put a stitch marker?
I always use a Stitch Marker. That way, I don't have to keep track, or count every Stitch. I hope this helps!
Also, you can use another color of yarn, as a Stitch Marker, if you don't have one. I also do this.
Thank You Mickey very good I will make it .
Makes up a gorgeous hat, I added a brim of a different color to fold up and a matching pom pom on top. But unfortunately I think this will be way too small for my newborn based off the average newborns head circumference. How can I make it again but bigger? I used a 4.5m hook with normal/relaxed tension 😬
Try increasing your hook to a 5 mm / H/8. That's what I would do.
Great tutorial but wouldn't it be better to use a magic ring in Round 1 so there isn't a huge hole at the top of the hat when its finished?
At the very end when working at the length by doing just one all around my hat just keeps on getting wider and winder rather then lengthy.
Nice video but how many rows it took to get to the newborn size?
@@micheleyarbrough4468 you need to measure it. Everyone’s tension is unique.
How used Caron simply soft and followed your pattern just with a number 5 hook am I hats look smaller than yours why do you have any idea why
I ,like the hat. I had 40 stitches in each row after the increase, but my seem is not straight. It looks fine when I lay it flat. Not sure what happened.Idead!
How many double crochets in the magic circle using a 4 ply yarn
The pattern doesn't have double crochets. The first round is 8 half double crochets. So you would need 8.
That's beautiful, I'm going to try one today.
Thank you.
What hook is a 4.5? I have a G that is 4.25 and an H that is 5.0. Which one do I use?
4.5mm is sometimes listed as a #7 Crochet Hook. Also, depending on your tension, I would try both the 4.25 (G) and the 5.00 (H), and see which measurement is closest to the size that you wish to make.
I am wanting to make these in mernio baby wool what hook would you suggest I use xxx
I would look up the yarn thickness of the yarn you want and match the hook. I don’t know what Merino baby wool is here to give that advice. I’m sorry.
I would enjoy this more if the camera person would zoom closer to view the stitches more clearly. Thank you!
for the 7-9# what is the final count... going from 36 for 5-6# going 1hdc x3 + 2hdc...is more than 40 total increase...What am I doing wrong OR is the count more than 40. Thank you.
Thank you. Your video is perfect thank you.
I'm just curious, do you do an increase 4 times (four rounds with an in crease each time(2 hdb and then 1,2,3,4 singles?)
Hi Michael I ĺike videos
I love this pattern and they look super cute. But im finding they are coming up so small! I made a 7lb hat for a 6lb baby and didnt fit at all was way to small!! Any advice???
Check the gauge, you maybe too tight with the stitches and need to increase your hook.
@@TheCrochetCrowd ok thats great thank you!
Mikey I was super super preemie baby i weighted 1 lb,4oz that was 23 years ago.
tinmanlover1994
Wow, someone who weighted less than me! I weighted 2 lb with 5 oz, my mom had no idea what clothes to put on me since at the time there was no such thing as preemie sizes. A nice neighbor who was a seamstress made all my baby clothes. I'm turning 24 this year.
Is there a video for the 3-4lb hat please
Could you link the written pattern? I cant find it.
It is available in the video’s description
For thus newborn size if I only have a 4.25 hook and 5.oo mm could I get away with one of these without it being too tight or too loose?
Try it and check the gauge in the pattern. You may be a loose enough crocheter to get away with it.
Felt very proud. Made one in less than a day! instructions were straight forward. Thank you.
U da man Mikey
How do I get the pattern for bigger sizes
Lovely must make some thankyou
what size crochet hook?
Love all the pattern s would like to do all , thanks
can red heart cutie pie yarn and a 4.25 mm hook?
What if you have a hook size small 3.75mm
That will change the size of hat. You can try it though.
@@TheCrochetCrowd is there a way just to add an extra row to get the size I need
whats the height on the preemie preemie ?
WOW TOTALLY WOW 👏👏👏👏👏
Thankyou great tutorial 😊
Anyone else decide to use larger width yarn? And it now seems like the hat is way to big! Any suggestions ?
I'm using a different yarn size which uses a 3.25mm hook, so naturally the hat is much smaller. What should I do?
The Gauge for this pattern is: 14 sc and 15 rows = 4” [10 cm]. So, I would start with a 4.00 mm Crochet Hook, and work your way up until your Gauge matches the one that I gave you. I hope this helps!
Could I do 8hdc in a magic circle? I like making those.
Yep for sure... cleaner look too!
Yarn weight?
great tutorial!
Why is your seam angled
does it matter what type of yarn is used ?
Equivalent to gauge would be ideal.
melody maben can I have tnsts
Huh?
@@TheCrochetCrowd I would also say to use a soft yarn, because some yarns are too heavy, or not delicate enough for a newborn.
Its 4 1/2 from crown to trim what should it be across?
melody maben newborn is about 14 inches around, and so 7 inches if measured like he did it in the video. about 16 for 3 month. Those are the 50 percentile measurements. I do a lot of hats :-)

melody maben idk
This says newborn but I followed the instructions and it looks preemie size
Where did you get your needle??
Mine keep coming out flat :-/ not sure where I am going wrong here.
