Great video. I appreciate the straightforward instruction without a lot of pointless chatter. This is easy to follow and although I'm using totally different yarn and hook size, I'm very pleased with the results. Needless to say, this instructional video is easily customizable to whatever yarn someone wants to use. Thanks for sharing your expertise.
For the last 3 years I've been making Cuddle Babies, which are soft toys, but really wanted to expand my projects. I'm sure many have also searched for crochet tutorials and landed up more confused than when they started. Not with Donna, I don't even search anymore, I just go on your channel. You are my GOTO tutor. Thank you for all the fantastic tutorials.
Donna, I learned the basic stitches with you some years ago. There are many videos out there, but yours were better for those starting the basic crochet stitches. Now I am advanced and make a lot projects for babies, adults and home decor. Thank you.
Wow! I have always have a problem with making a hat the “original way” starting from the top, increasing, and so forth, but your way is the most amazing and easy to understand. You are a great teacher. Thank you. I will star my hat right away!
Just about finished this. My best friend taught me the basic chain and single crochet stitch about 2 years ago and i was too nervous to try anything else. She tagged me in this video on Facebook and I finally decided, "What the heck! Just go for it!" So glad I did. This was the easiest project and your directions were clear and concise. Thank you for a great video. I will be sharing my finished product soon!
I love that you told us the measurements. usually I just get hook size. and since we all have different tension and or yarn types this really helps,also was very clearly demonstrated. Thanks for sharing 😊
You are the best teacher! I have been crocheting on and off for 40+ years, taught by my grandma. Of all the video tutorials I have watched, I must say, yours are the clearest, quickest, and bonus, your gauge matches up with mine. Haha .. And unlike some other video instructors, you don't blather on with twenty minutes of useless stuff I really don't need to know! Thanks for doing you!
*I LOVE THIS BEANIE 💝!* THIS WAS THE VERY FIRST THING I CROCHETED WHEN I STARTED CROCHETING ABOUT A YEAR AGO 😊. YOUR TUTORIAL MADE IT SO EASY & I MADE SO MANY IN DIFFERENT COLOR'S. I WAS HOOKED ON IT 😊! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH DONNA FOR SHARING 😊💝!!!
Now that was just too easy and turned out so beautiful! Thanks so much for sharing. Glad someone finally thought to put the pony tail rubbers in one of these hats. Thanks again. Love you work.
I love the way that you finished the opening in the top of the hat, it looks so much neater! Thank you for sharing this with us, your videos are so easy to follow along with and your instructions are easy to understand!
I absolutely LOVE your videos.....you explain and demonstrate the steps so clearly and you make it so easy to follow, regardless of crochet-experience. Thanks for yet another beautiful, super-fun item!! Can't wait to make this!!!!
wonderful pattern. I usually just crochet 24 sc around the ponytail band and work the regular beanie pattern. I love this pattern. Thank you for sharing.
I'm just going to say it. I am currently working on this. your pattern/technique and it is going slow due to the back loop. However, your hat is SOOO much more classy than all the others. I love the way it is turning out!❤️❤️❤️
I made a child size this weekend. I used a child size hair band for ponytail spot. Looks like it will fit and project was so easy and fast. Thank you fir post.
This tutorial is just perfect! I tried making a hat on a circle loom and it feels like it's taking way longer than it should🤣. I'm new but I can definitely do this!
My daughters and nieces have been going crazy over these messy bun hats, and bugging me for one. There's 7 girls in the family, so as a beginner I'm glad to see that this video is easy to follow along and there isn't a bunch of complicated stitches 😜
My sister wants me to make her one for Christmas. I honestly thought it would be harder than this. She's gonna get her hat by the holidays. Thank you for the easy to understand tutorial. Thumbs up. 👍🏻
Thank you so very much!!!! I love your tutorials as I am a beginner+ at crocheting and I def find them clear and easy to follow along. My DIL will love this pattern--thanks again!
Brilliant idea with using hair elastic . Excellent instruction. Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorial. I can't wait to crochet a few of these!!!
I already know I'm going to make tons of hats using your video because I've never seen another video where they use a hair tie and stead of just crocheting a circle in the very beginning. That is literally GENIUS. especially for a messy bun hat... THANK YOU!! the other day I just found a really cool rainbow color using the exact same yarn in your video and I'm so excited let me just tell you...
What a great idea to add the elastic! I've always made these with a drawstring with pom poms on each end and while they look cute, this has a lovely clean line for those that don't like danglies. I'll definitely be making a few like this for family and friends - and one or two for me! Cheers!
I love this pattern it was so easy. I didn't have any extra headbands around so I just made a chain and joined it then started with the chain of 41. I don't have facebook but I will post a pic on twitter some time today. Thank you so much for the tutorial.
Like this band going to have to make some for my grand-daughters...I really enjoy watching and listening to u ...u explain things very clear....thanku....Have a happy Holiday....
I want to make this as Christmas gifts, but have been struggling with knitting in the round. This version is great, and I love your clear tutorial. Thanks!!
Thank you for your generosity & sharing this pattern. I taught myself to crochet using Your so easy to follow instructions & videos. I'll be making this hat for my granddaughter. ☺️
Thank you! I have a video for how to make those crochet hook handles if you are interested: th-cam.com/video/s-_WyGH-FM4/w-d-xo.html&list=PL967A411A9D90AA96&index=19

Measurements are definitely helpful because even yarn of the same weight can work up differently. 😊
