I went down a hook size, as I was worried about the hat being too large. It still came out huge. The pattern was easy enough to follow and I'll make it again, but I'll go down yet another hook size. Thank you for the tutorial!
I crochet by doing about 9 inches in length, and then start my rectangle, as i go on the hat will go to about 11 inches it grows lol, and then keep going until you're 1 inch from your head circumference and then join it and finish! You can use any size hook and yarn just use as guidelines and measure!
Mine didn’t turn out great but it was my second ever attempt at crocheting so the fact that I was even able to make a hat (however lopsided it looks) was amazing. Thank you for making such an easy to follow tutorial and explaining when and why stitch markers are needed. I’m definitely going to try this again now that I have a better grasp on how to do it.
Hey Tiffany- want to say a big thank you! This is the only beginner tutorial for a beanie that I’ve been able to follow. Here to show it some more love and appreciation! I’ve now completed my First crotchet project because of your helpful commentary and video. Please keep up these videos, you’ve gained a fan from England 😀❤️
Aww what a kind and thoughtful comment! Thank you so much, I'm glad it helped you :) It took me a long time to learn how to crochet and once it clicked, it became so much fun! It makes me so happy when someone else learns the craft and can also experience that enjoyment. Happy Crocheting!
I have only ever made hats top down in a circle and didn't really know how to make one from a rectangle. Your tutorial was so easy to understand! Thanks so much for posting this!! ❤
Mom mother use to crochet, she made so many things one of my favorite was Santa’s boots, I wish o had learned before she passed away, now I really want to learn and this tutorial looks simple thank you and I’m definitely seeing this to start.
@sonvonia Don't give up! There are MANY tutorials on here, some easy to understand, others impossible. I learned to chain and single crochet when I was 8. I saw my mom was making something so I asked if she could show me. She had a spare hook and a 3 ft. long piece of yarn. I went through the 2 things a couple of times, got bored and went outside to play. Fast forward 21 years and a coworker was making the most beautiful blanket for the baby she was expecting, I asked her where to get all my supplies because I was also expecting my first baby. When I got home that night, after supper, I took out all of my things and opened the pattern. My excitement turned to tears when I had no idea how to read the pattern. Thanks to help from several different people, I managed to finish that blanket, and it wasn't perfect, but I was proud that I didn't give up. Well, after that I had no plans to crochet again, until 2014. Twenty six years after that blanket, I learned that we were going to have a grandchild. I found everything I needed, still needed some help, but I made the same pattern for our granddaughter. Since then, I've made 4 more, along with over 200 baby beanies to donate to a children's hospital. I have a lot of yarn and no desire to stop crocheting. I am having some memory problems like my mom did when she died, but I'm not that bad yet, just slower.
Thank you for this very easy to follow video! I’ve only made 2 scarves before my daughter asked for a beanie. You made it super simple to follow along and she is SUPER HAPPY with her new beanie 😁
I made one today Sept 4th 2024 and I followed everything to a t, I think, but the hat came out so big im glad that I have dreadlocks so it will fit right.😊
Just finished my hat according to your directions. It turned out perfect with your very easy video and comments. Thank you so much for helping me here.
I made a very stylish and comfortable beanie out of grape fizz yarn today because of this instructional video. Thank you for this I love it so much. It suits me perfectly.
I followed this video to make my first hat ever I just started learning and the beginning of my project ended up bigger than the top so I had to do some magic work but it turned out really good my dad loves it this was a wonderful video to follow and I will be definitely do more projects from your channel
At about 3:06, as you are turning your work, you say that you are making your first DC, when you are actually making a HDC which is the correct stitch. I'm just trying to finish a ribbed beanie in the infant size. It's new for me because I've always made them in the round. I needed something new to be excited about making them again. I love making baby blankets for grandkids and beanies for a children's hospital.
I love this! Im working on making one like you did right now. Can you share a video on how to count each row of the half double crochet in the rectangle shape? I’m finding myself lost with counting them because the stitch causes a wave pattern which is incredible but I’m still struggling when counting the rows.
I love your instructions they were very clear and easy to understand thank you so very much for sharing your tutorials 😊 I like my tutorials to be short and simple so thanks again 😊😊😊
Hi i got a question for you i was wondering does it matter what kind of hook i use as long as it's either 5.0 or the 5.5 the reason y im asking is because I have a soft handle one because of my wrist and the other reason why im asking is because this is my very first time doing crocheting since my dad passed away 3 years ago and my step mom stop talking to me because i look to much like my dad. And now im finally ready to start back and your video is so easy to understand that i know i can make it without any trouble
So I've made a couple scarfs using the half double but I didn't do into the back loops but for the hat I want it to look ribbed so I will go into the back loop this time but do you have to skip the first v like here 3:19 will it make a difference
No matter what yarn or size you use the following tips will help... The amount of chains you start off with will determine the length of the hat... from where the center of the hat starts to your forehead. measure your chains on your head... And it will stretch a bit. As for the amount of rows... Crochet enough rows to get 19 inches long. This is adult size to fit nicely. (Same size as a headband)
It looks really good, i'm thinking about trying this as my first crochet project ever ! Do you think 100m of yarn would be enough ? My yarn looks kinda similar to the one you use in this video.
I’m trying to make this and for some reason, the lines keep getting shorter and shorter as I go. It’s starting to become more of a trapezoid vs rectangle. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
I had the same problem when I first started crocheting. I had a lot of lopsided dishcloths when I first started out, lol. So a couple of things could be happening. The most common mistake is forgetting to do the last stitch at the end of the row. This stitch usually looks different (and may be tighter than the other stitches) so it's easy to overlook. This can eventually turn your rectangle into a triangle. Another common mistake is skipping stitches in the middle of your work. This can happen when we're still trying to figure out tension and some of our stitches are tighter than others, it makes them easy to miss. Here are some tips to help prevent this: Count your stitches at the end of each row to make sure you have the correct amount. You can also use stitch markers on the last stitch at the end of your row so you don't skip it. I hope that helps!
My sides look diagonal instead of straight when I skip the first loop where the “chain 2” is. So instead I hdc into the same loop as the “chain 2”. 😊 looks good
I’m making a surprise for a coworker but I don’t have the dimensions for their head lol. Would this work for a universal size or should I make adjustments?
I used this pattern to make my dad's Christmas gift!
I wouldn't have been able to crochet without this video because I couldn't find any other clear video to help me.🥰🥰❤
I've crocheted many hats over the years, and I never liked any of them until this one. It's perfect. Thank you so much for the tutorial.
I went down a hook size, as I was worried about the hat being too large. It still came out huge. The pattern was easy enough to follow and I'll make it again, but I'll go down yet another hook size. Thank you for the tutorial!
you can just use the same hook just make less rows
try doing like 30-35 rows so it can be smaller and chain less also that way it wont be extra long
Thank you the hat it beautiful 💙
I crochet by doing about 9 inches in length, and then start my rectangle, as i go on the hat will go to about 11 inches it grows lol, and then keep going until you're 1 inch from your head circumference and then join it and finish!

This is how I’m experiencing it too! Haha. I’m noticing my rows are getting shorter and shorter
@@OASYSMUSICGROUP Good to know. I am new too and appreciate knowing I need to make the chains longer than I thought.
I really enjoyed this very SIMPLE pattern.

I noticed she said double crochet when she meant 1/2 double crochet. It may be confusing for new crocheters.
@@sweetnsassy4329 Yeah, that was the only reason I pointed it out. I'm far from a great crocheter, but I enjoy the stitches I know how to make.
What an easy hat to make. Thanks for sharing. The tutorial was easy to follow with absolutely no confusion. Great teacher❤
OMG I ACTUALLY DID IT!!!!!
Thank you for this awesome free tutorial! 🎉

Hi i got a question for you i was wondering does it matter what kind of hook i use as long as it's either 5.0 or the 5.5 the reason y im asking is because I have a soft handle one because of my wrist and the other reason why im asking is because this is my very first time doing crocheting since my dad passed away 3 years ago and my step mom stop talking to me because i look to much like my dad. And now im finally ready to start back and your video is so easy to understand that i know i can make it without any trouble
Very beautiful
I’m currently using a size larger hook, because my daughter has a big head and even bigger hair. I hope it fits!
Loved it so much, I'm going to make one. Thanks for the shsre
Best video!! Thank you!!!
Can I do this with a double crochet stitch?
So I've made a couple scarfs using the half double but I didn't do into the back loops but for the hat I want it to look ribbed so I will go into the back loop this time but do you have to skip the first v like here 3:19 will it make a difference
When you get to the end of every route, are you flipping your work?
No matter what yarn or size you use the following tips will help...
The amount of chains you start off with will determine the length of the hat... from where the center of the hat starts to your forehead. measure your chains on your head... And it will stretch a bit.
As for the amount of rows... Crochet enough rows to get 19 inches long. This is adult size to fit nicely. (Same size as a headband)
How man rows?
How many? Didn't see or hear that ???
52
Did you use one full skein of yarn?
Thank you ❤
What should be the size of the rectangle for a woman’s beanie pl
My question also
Awesome,I love it so easy ❤
I did it! Thank u
It looks really good, i'm thinking about trying this as my first crochet project ever ! Do you think 100m of yarn would be enough ? My yarn looks kinda similar to the one you use in this video.
When at the end of the final row, do you chain twice and flip? Or just flip?
What was the total rows to make rectangle
Hope she answers this. Cause I need the same ?
At 3:13 she says 52 rows
U could also do itto the circumference of your head
Mine gets smaller as I make rows. What am I doing wrong? Frustrated. Caroline
@jamesgreer3953 it sounds like you might be skipping the first stitch or 2
And I can always go around the edges with a simple stitch to decorate it if wanted or a puff ball at the top
Hello Tiffany,can you please 🙏 tell how to make baby hat,the same pattern,but how many loops and how many rows should you make for a baby ?
I’m trying to make this and for some reason, the lines keep getting shorter and shorter as I go. It’s starting to become more of a trapezoid vs rectangle. Any idea what I’m doing wrong?
I had the same problem when I first started crocheting. I had a lot of lopsided dishcloths when I first started out, lol.
So a couple of things could be happening. The most common mistake is forgetting to do the last stitch at the end of the row. This stitch usually looks different (and may be tighter than the other stitches) so it's easy to overlook. This can eventually turn your rectangle into a triangle.
Another common mistake is skipping stitches in the middle of your work. This can happen when we're still trying to figure out tension and some of our stitches are tighter than others, it makes them easy to miss.
Here are some tips to help prevent this:
Count your stitches at the end of each row to make sure you have the correct amount.
You can also use stitch markers on the last stitch at the end of your row so you don't skip it.
I hope that helps!
I put a stitch counter on the 1st stitch of the row so I'd know. Otherwise, I was getting confused as well.
Why do you yarn under after going through the back loop?
How many inches tall should the rows be? I have thicker yarn and bigger hook.
I love it Thank you
My sides look diagonal instead of straight when I skip the first loop where the “chain 2” is. So instead I hdc into the same loop as the “chain 2”. 😊 looks good
I love to make my hats in a square then I sew it together
How long did it take you to make this?
So creative.
How would you adjust size for a child?
When y ou do thé flirts row do it double te size of his head
I’m making a surprise for a coworker but I don’t have the dimensions for their head lol. Would this work for a universal size or should I make adjustments?
Can i use this pattern for gents sweater
How many chains for a large please
My first row is longer than my current row. I think I missed stitches some where. Is there a way to add stitched to a row to even it back out?
Nah, better to unstitch that row when you catch it and start over
Does the starting chain and the first row of HDC count in the 52 rows?
can this be done without a yarn needle? got up to that point and realised i didn't have one 😢
