Hey guys! I hope you enjoy this tutorial. It's a great project for fathers day too which is just 6 days away! Be sure to tag me in your photos on your socials. The links are in my description. Hope you all have a fab week and I'll see you in the next video
Hey! I love this pattern and have written it out so I could follow along easier. I’d like to share it in the comments but also understand you already have this pattern available on Etsy. I wanted to check if it was okay for me to comment with it written or if I shouldn’t do that. Thanks!
Thankyou! Just what I was looking for. For those having difficulty, please take the time to watch and write down the pattern. It's a "how to pattern," not a crochet along. Some crochet knowledge is beneficial.
Omg this is so cute. I cant wait to make one or two. I m going to add some eyes on mine, just to make it look like it has the glasses on . Lol thank you so much for your tutorial, love it. Great idea for gifts .
Fabulous tutorial, not sure what all the comments are about saying you can’t follow it, it was perfectly easy to follow, I plan on making two of these for the in-laws for Christmas presents
This is such a cute idea and I love it! Thank you for sharing ☺️ I am thinking for mine that I will try closing the head the same way beanies are closed. I have a hard time decreasing and my projects end up with big holes. Thanks again!!
I’m currently away on holiday so I don’t have the measurements to hand but when I get back I’ll pop up the details on my website for you and leave the link in the description 😊
This reminds me of Bunsen Honeydew from Muppets 😂 the head shape is identical and using a more yellow green would get the color right too! Now we just need Beaker 😊
Hi...loved your tutorial... thanks dear...l am planning to make it for my husband...can you please give the hook size you have used...so that I get the right size of the product..😊
@@olivia9564 okie doke so if you’ve increased by two more rows then you decrease by two more rows. What we your last increase row count? Increase and then how many stitches did you do after? You’ll do the same with the decrease so if you did increase, then 8 single crochets then your lol do decrease and 8 single crochets around.
Hi, i really don’t understand the first part of the video 😅 do you increase in every single stitch for 10 rows straight? Mine doesn’t look like a bowl shape like yours? Mine just has a lot of folds
So you’ll do 6 sc, then increase in every st for round two. Then the next row will be Inc, then 1 sc and repeat that all the way around. The next row will be Inc, then 1 sc in the next two sts, and repeat the Inc, 2 sc all the way around. You’ll repeat that increase and then 3, Inc and then 4 until you get to row 10. I have the written pattern available if you need it 😊
Hii, so for this project im using fluffy yarn and a 5 mm hook, and im doubting if the diameter is too big, its 14cm(5.5 inch i think), do you think the end result will be too big? im making a xmas present and i want it to be perfect(also do you think it'll be pretty if its made with fluffy yarn?)😀
Hey! That sounds amazing! I’d love to see what it looks like when it’s finished! Please tag me on your socials! I think it should be fine with it being 5.5 inches. As long as you’re making it for an adult. Then you can adjust the stuffing to how big you want it to be 😊 good luck! I can’t wait to see it! 🥰
Not sure after you add or increase one are they all single crochets around so then in that row you'd have 13 stitches? Beginner crocheter so not sure....row 3 then would have ? row 4?
Hi! So you’ll be repeating the increase. Row 2 you’ll be increasing in every stitch. Then row 3 you’ll be increasing in the first stitch then 1 stitch in the next, then increasing in the next stitch and 1 stitch in the next. Does that make sense? I have the written pattern which might make it easier to follow along with on my Etsy 🥰
@@Perxonn yea, round 3 you would increase in the first stitch, then 1 single crochet in the next, then keep repeating that until you get round to the beginning. Then the next row would be increase in the first, 1 single crochet in the next and then 1 single crochet in the next, then repeat that around. Does that make sense? 😊
How large is the hexagon supposed to be BEFORE rows 11-20, i increased my hook size to 6mm. And it is bigger, but I am still not sure 😅 i need to make 2 for christmas presents
I’m sorry I’m away on holiday atm so don’t have measurements to hand. Best thing to do is measure the glasses you’ll be using it for and make the increases to a cm smaller than them. Then add the ears and the glasses should for nicely 😊
Ok i am on row 12.. and mine looks tiny. If i force it flat it sits about 4.25 inches in diameter. I am using a 5mm hook and a medium 4 weight yarn *i couldn't order the specific one in the video but i made sure I had the same weight.. please please please tell me this will work out 😅 i am worried
It might be that your tension is a lot tighter but once you stuff it, it should be bigger. Trust the process and if you finish it and it’s too small then try it again with a larger hook x
@MumsyMakesCrochet what size should I use? I also wonder if I should get a thicker yarn? Maybe a 5? Idk i should note I *think* the yarn i did use is worsted. Caron One Pound in the color succulent. It has stayed around 4 inches. Super cute but definitely not big enough for my father's glasses lol. Good practice tho!
Love ❤ this sooo much great tutorial so easy to follow along thanks so much! Also I was wondering if it is okay with you if I could sell this to people?
Hi! These are great for any size glasses. If it was for children’s you may want to skip a few of the increase rows but the standard size should be fine for most adults glasses
@@sweetestsoggiestnutsock Working in the round simply means you continue crocheting each round without joining and chaining 1 :) So you would use a stitch marker to make the beginning of each round. Hope this helps
Hi I’m somewhat new to crocheting and I want to make sure I get this right! I’m on the first step of increasing every row until row 10 and I wanted to know exactly what increasing on every row meant? I know from row 1-2 you increase by doing 2 stitches in every 1 stitch before, do I follow this same pattern? Because math would say I’m doubling each row and by row 10 that’s a lot more than 60 stitched which is what you said we should have by then. I’m really confused and want to get this right because it’s a Christmas gift for me day ☺️
Hi! I’ve got the written pattern available on my Etsy to help you follow it with the video a bit better but the increases would be: Row 2: increase in each stitch Row 3: increase in one stitch and then 1 single crochet in the next. And you would repeat the increase in the next and then 1 single crochet in the next. Row 4: increase in the first stitch then 1 single crochet in each of the next 2 stitch and repeat the increase and then 2 single crochets. Row 5 would have 3 single crochets between increases. Does that make sense?
@@MumsyMakesCrochetyes thank you so much for helping clarify! Is it safe to assume it continues with the same pattern the next rows being 4,5,6 and so on I between increase stitches?
@@MumsyMakesCrochetI’m so glad you just clarified this! Cuz I followed this tutorial before but you had the pattern in the comments which made it easier. I was doing it SUPER wrong this time!! Thank you so much
This is very cute but if you really want to share your pattern with your viewers you would have written the pattern on top on 1 of the corners and not speedup the video. It's a shame and it was a waste of my time because it didn't make sense and I couldn't follow you. And I'm able to follow a subscriber from another country and doesn't speak English but her video is up close and has the pattern written on top of 1 of the corners. Now that's a subscriber that's wants to share her pattern with her viewers.
Hi Norma, I have the written pattern available on my Etsy shop. I made this video 2 years ago when I first started making videos so I apologise if it's too sped up for you but you're more than welcome to grab the pattern from my Etsy which I only popped on there last month. Happy crocheting!
@@MumsyMakesCrochet i think there point is that you have to purchase it to use. and you don't have it on the screen. it would help me a lot better understanding the pattern if it was also there to see on the screen. the way *my* brain works is that i would benefit from a pattern video as well as the written pattern on the screen too. its easier to have everything organized and one more thing less to worry about. not trying to be rude, i hope you understand that. thank you!
@ no of course I understand but I run a business, not just popping up a few videos. I have to make money somewhere hence the paid patterns. I hope you understand too 😊
@@MumsyMakesCrochet i certainly do. as someone building up a business also, i completely get your reasoning and not trying to fight it in any way. i just saw a lot of other people saying the same thing and all you did was refer them to your website. i will still follow you because i am very grateful for the pattern, i wish you a very merry christmas!!💝

R5. (3sc, inc) x6 (30)
R6. (4sc, inc) x6 (36)

This will make a lovely gift for someone who can never find their glasses My brother defo needs one😊
Exactly! and you can make it in any colour you like
Thankyou! Just what I was looking for.

Oh thank you! So glad you enjoyed it 🥰🥰
This is so cute and as a short sighted person this would help me immensely when trying to find my glasses :D
Aww they are fab! My dad loves his 🥰 I even made a smaller one for my son! X
Omg this is so cute. I cant wait to make one or two. I m going to add some eyes on mine, just to make it look like it has the glasses on . Lol thank you so much for your tutorial, love it. Great idea for gifts .
You’re welcome!! Enjoy! If you have tiktok or insta tag me!
making this for my dad for christmas, hope he loves it he is always losing his glasses!
Aww I hope he loved it! 🥰
That is just about the cutest crochet project I've seen.
Thankyou for sharing this adorable idea.
You are so welcome! X
So adorable! I can't wait to make this! ❤️
Thank you for sharing this with us ❤

Enjoyed your tutorial and crocheted up well,made it for my granddaughter Ella x
Yay! We've just found out our son needs glasses and have to collect them next week so I'll have another tutorial up soon for a smaller version :)
Fabulous tutorial, not sure what all the comments are about saying you can’t follow it, it was perfectly easy to follow, I plan on making two of these for the in-laws for Christmas presents
Thank you! 🙏 🥰 amazing! What colours are you making them? 😊
I’m not sure yet, I’m going through my yarn stash today to see which colours I have in Aran :)

Ooo that’s an interesting idea! I’ve never thought of trying that! Maybe for a future video I’ll give it a go! 🥰
This is awesome made 2 for father's day gifts. Thank you 🙌❣️
Amazing! You’re so welcome! 🥰 x
Hey so I'm confused on when she says continue increasing until round 10 do you keep putting 2 in each stitch or every other stitch
I have 2 pairs of glasses one for work and one for normal use
I’ll definitely be making this when I get more yarn
Wahey! 😃 x
Great tutorial ! What is the circumference of the head ? Thanks for sharing.

Haha! I’ve done the same multiple times! I normally end up sitting on them 🫣😂 I made myself one and popped a bow on it 🥰
@@MumsyMakesCrochet omg a bow?! I need lol

Fab! The hook size is 5mm 🥰 there’s a list of everything you need at the beginning of the video x
Thank you so much 😊
I am using 3,5 mm hook so I did two rows more when increasing it. How I should decrease it?

What does 1sc and repeat around mean in the instructions?
1 sc means 1 single crochet and repeat means to repeat the instructions on that row to the end of that row
@@MumsyMakesCrochet so I do an increase and then one single crochet in the next stitch and then repeat that for the row?

Do you think raw pinto beans ( instead of rice) would work for the weighted part of this project ?
You can definitely give it a go! I’ve not tried them. It’s just to weigh it down a bit so it doesn’t tip over 😊
How big is it? Will it work for kid glasses?
It could work for kids glasses. Just skip the last 2 increase rounds 🥰

It should be approximately 5 inches 😊
@MumsyMakesCrochet thank you! One last question is the final width of 8 inches including the ears/nose
What are the measurements? I am using a different size yarn and hook and want to make sure it is big enough.
I’m sorry I’m away on holiday atm so don’t have measurements to hand. Best thing to do is measure the glasses you’ll be using it for and make the increases to a cm smaller than them. Then add the ears and the glasses should for nicely 😊

How much yarn do you need for this?
It will be under 100g so one 100g ball is more than enough
How much yarn did you use?
Less than 100g as I was using a 100g ball of yarn 😊
