Timestamps for references (and for myself !!) 1:58 and 3:05 . First one already has the extra chain , second starts with showing the extra chain and 8:22 to finish 🖤🫶🏼 also, i love this!! Currently trying to get back into crocheting, and its been a bit cold !! Making a beanie for my dad as a Christmas present !!
I watched a similar video from a different person and was SO confused I can’t tell you. I’m a beginner but I couldn’t even follow the super simple plan. Yours actually made sense because you demonstrated and explained several things she considered things you’d already know. Thank you!
I love this beanie and think it will be my first project. I recently started crocheting again, I made blankets and throws in the 70's, so basically I'm a beginner and you made this look so easy. I found your channel a few days ago and love you and your content so much. Thanks for sharing this cool pattern.
Love this pattern! Love the fact that it doesn’t leave the chunky top! Perfect!!! Simply perfect!!!! I’m on my second one and I get so many compliments on my beanie! Thank you so much for doing this.
I recently made a beanie a similar way but instead of slip stitches I used single crochet with weight 4 yarn Came out beautiful just like this. Took me 10 freakin hours tho. Worth it 💙
I made a purple hat for my 1 year old! I did 16+1 chain and 12 rows. Slip stitched the last 6 every other row. Now I want to make one for my 4 year old and myself too! Thank you for clearly showing and explaining everything you were doing
This is the 2cd design I used for crocheting a beannie. Loved the direction to slip stitch every other row on the top making it much less bulky.Loved the final product. Thank you.
I just made this and it turned out so good ! I love it so much. One tip I would have is to put a stitch marker where you do the slip stitches so you don’t have to count. 💕 love this pattern so much ❤️
I did it!! My first crochet project and it turned out great. The video was simple to follow and everything fell into place as it was meant to. Took me two days but the hat is here and looking fabulous.
this is my second project and it turned out lovely !! the instructions were so easy to follow. i def made a couple mistakes and had to try closing the top several times before i could get it all the way closed but it all worked out in the end and still looks super nice
I’ve been crocheting ever since I was 8 yrs old. But have only recently branched out from scarfs and blankets. Will be attempting this pattern soon! Thank you 😀
I had a lot of fun crocheting this beanie with your pattern. I used a smaller hook, so it turned out a bit stiffer, and I also chained 31 in the beginning (so 22 Half double crochets and 9 slip Stiches for me). It only took three or four hours to create a very nice and useful piece! Thank you for that pattern!
Would like to know if the yarn is Super Bulky #6? I have a couple of balls in the the same yarn and it shows that I am to use a 9 mm hook? Can you provide the finished measurements of how wide and long? Kindest regards, Nancy :)
Thank you so much! This beanie pattern is so good! And works up so quickly I’ve been able to watch Halloween movies and finish a beanie every movie! They’re looking so cute specially with a Pom Pom at the top! Plus it’s so easy to adjust to make it fit my family members heads!😂
excellent clear instructions with directions on the video, perfect. Especially helpful is the shaping at the top of the hat. thanks for sharing this idea♥
i’ve been looking for a beanie pattern where the top of the hat doesn’t scrunch up all together bc i never like the way it looks so thank you for this!! your hat looks so nice i’m definitely going to try this
Just made this. “My experience no hate I appreciate this as a guide.” So if you have a large head 23” it’s going to be 36 rows. BUT I did the length of around 11 in or chain of 27 and it’s a perfect guy hat. Def should be longer for women unless you like the style of a shorter hat.
I have to try this one. I have not seen this technique with HDC and I prefer it to the slip stitch versions which have tried and not had success with them. I think my tension is too tight. lol Thanks for sharing. ❤
This exactly what we all needed! I definitely want to try this pattern soon because I've only ever loom knit beanies before 🧶🧶🧶 I love your videos & welcoming personality, Erin!
I love this pattern!! This is my second project and this is so easy to follow and get the hang of after a slight learning curve! I am so excited to make more of these!
@@imogeninnit Hi! If you’re making a beanie for adults then it might be like a ball of yarn and a little bit of a second ball of yarn. I haven’t crocheted a beanie yet but I saw a comment of the creator saying that her first ball of yarn ran short so she used a second one to finish the beanie. If you’re making a beanie for toddlers then I think a ball of yarn should be fine! :D
@@imogeninnit i used the same yarn she used Lion Brand Wool Ease, 8mm crochet hook, same pattern as her, hat was for my boyfriend and it took one and a half or 3/4 balls of yarn. Second hat for me, smaller head, 6mm hook and it took one and 1/4 balls of yarn hope this helps :) im trying to figure out what i can make with the extra yarn
You can customize the amount of rows needed for your own head. As you add on rows, check to see if the first and last rows stretch to reach around your head, once it’s large enough you can seam it up ❤️
How would we adjust for different sizes? Do you have a formula used so I can calculate how many HDC and Slip stiches I need when I change the chain amount? I love this pattern so much and it took me a few times and i ended up switching to a lighter yarn while i learn the pattern so i can see better. Making my boyfriend one for christmas so for now im adjusting how many rows I do and hoping it fits with me measuring often.
I always leave long tails to weave in because I'm worried about my work potentially coming undone. The long tail gives you wiggle room to repair it What a lovely hat 😊
Love this pattern! I’ve been making beanies like crazy lmao. how would you change the sizing to fit a child? I would measure their head but they don’t live near me lol
what about using yarn size bulky 5? Do we still need to make them this way with the 17 back crochet and the 7 slip stitches? the numbers will vary because of the yarn thickness/size. Please help! Thanks :)
I have a question! When finished with row 2, do I chain 1 before starting row 3? I noticed you said to chain 1 before starting row 4, but I wasn't sure if row 3 needed a chain 1 beforehand. Thanks so much!
Do you have a written pattern for diff size. You did 7. You start with 24. This could would not be constant. It’s relative. WC ch 30 would have diff number for the pattern.? Thanks
amazing!!! first time trying to make a piece for myself and not just learn patterns, cant believe you helped me to make something so cute and cozy! just did not get if you add one more hook at the end of each row or only every second one? (sorry for my english hehe)
I have a big head and have to take that in account and add an extra row somewhere with these hat patterns. I would have really appreciated some measurements.
Erin, do you have any recommendations on an alternative way to close the top of the hat? The specific yarn I’m using gets stuck between the stitches and keeps ripping when I pull it. 😢
Hi I'm still really new to crocheting but I was wondering if it makes a difference in what way/direction you do your yarn over? Only because I always yearn over in the opposite direction from how you do it in your video here?
mine somehow came out too short in length to do a flip cuff :/ not really sure what happened, my tension was good, and i used the right hook, and weight yarn..maybe my heads bigger or something lol
@@sunshinepumpkin23 i’d say just manually add a brim if you’ve already started the beanie. chain the length you want, and single crochet in the second chain from the hook all the way down, slip stitch in two stitches on the base of the hat, turn your work and then single crochet in the back loops only of the chain and that’ll creat a ribbed brim
I messed up on mine lol the chain was good but after the first row I looked at the piece and it was half the length that the chain was. I guess I was putting the half doubles in the wrong chain. I must have skipped one every time. Also the wool ease yarn I got seems super fuzzy and seems to get in the way. Was yours fuzzier that it looked on camera?
wanted to share this funny i had. So i was on row 16 and noticed the top was angled. I FREAKED out. so i restarted at like row 4. then i realized that it’s not gonna be straight….. so i restarted for nothing 😂 it’s also 1am, so i am definitely not thinking
i love this but is it optional to not do the 7 slip stitches in row 2 and the other rows after it? sorry if you don’t understand i don’t know how to explain it. if i don’t do it would it ruin the pattern?
Hey! Between row 2 and row 3, after you finished the last slip stitch in the row, did you chain one first before turning your work and resuming with the full row of HDCs? I am following your tutorial and it's been very helpful so far, but I'm confused on whether or not you chain one for every single row before turning your work, or you do that just for every other row. Thank you!
I didnt add them cause i considered that you had to add one only on the other rows the larger one. And my hat looks great didnt make it wierd so if ever you make the mistake like me its gonna be perfectly fine.☺️

How many did you have in your starting chain?!
I'm using a 4 weight as well. How many did you use for your starting chain?
I’m pretty new to crochet this pattern also took me 10 hours 😅

looks amazing! i‘ve always found the bulky ends of crochet beanies unpleasant but now i know a solution to the problem :)
Yes I hate the extra beanie fabric so this pattern is perfect for a more fitted look 🤍
Thank you so much for this easy to understand tutorial. Finally one decent beanie i achieved and took me about 3 hours to make this. ❤😊

So did you do 27 founding chains and 36 rows altogether. If so. How many slip stitches did you do having adjusted the length?
@@coleypark7121I had my bf do the math, lmao, it should be 19 hdc and 8 ss
I have to try this one. I have not seen this technique with HDC and I prefer it to the slip stitch versions which have tried and not had success with them. I think my tension is too tight. lol
Thanks for sharing. ❤

how much yarn did you need? :)
This was so so cute and easy and I’m in love with the final product! Only took me 4 hours :))
Thanks for such a lovely tutorial! I've already made a bunch of beanies as gifts for friends :)
Completed this and love it! I had to start over at one point because I did not do a proper job at counting when I did the pattern.
this is the best beanie pattern im making my second now 🫶🏻
How much yarn did you use for each hat? I’d really like to make these as Christmas gifts this year ☃️

hope this helps :)
im trying to figure out what i can make with the extra yarn
i made a chunky beanie using the LionBrand Wool Ease thick & quick stripes in red beacon and solid in cranberry!! it looks really nice! 🥹
THANK YOU SO MUCH 😊 this tutorial is awesome 🤩 this was my third project and WOW I’ve been able to make two beanies so far 🤯
Wooo!! That is amazing! ❣️
Thank you! You give directions so easily
Would love the measurments of the beanie as I'm scared of spending all the time to make it and then have it be too big or too small..
You can customize the amount of rows needed for your own head. As you add on rows, check to see if the first and last rows stretch to reach around your head, once it’s large enough you can seam it up ❤️
I made this today, thank you for making it so easy ❤
You’re welcome!! 💖
I want to try this! I’ve always done this with a sc instead of the sl st bc I love the look of doing the sc it’s more fitting

I'm tempted to try this. I'm a beginner and have had success crocheting scarves. Is this project easy enough for a newbie?
I always leave long tails to weave in because I'm worried about my work potentially coming undone. The long tail gives you wiggle room to repair it
What a lovely hat 😊
Thank you, already made a couple of these. Nice tutorial! 🖤
I’ve not worked with super chunky yarn yet, did it only need 1 skein for the beanie?
I used JUST over one skein of the Lion brand wool yarn! I had to buy a second skein just to add the last three rows 🥰💓
Do you chain one when starting your 3rd row? Currently working on this for a gift ☺️
She commented on another comment saying yes, you do chain one each time!
thank you for this erin! im having troubles figuring out how to close the top.. any tips? my whip stitch doesnt close the top completely :(
if it’s not shut completely you can also fold the opening in half and sew it closed ❤️
This turned out super cute! Will be a great present for my niece!
Excellent video! Thank you for easy to follow guidance 🙌
Love this pattern! I’ve been making beanies like crazy lmao. how would you change the sizing to fit a child? I would measure their head but they don’t live near me lol
look for crochet beanie size charts maybe.
This seems soooo much easier then knitting... i will go with this method instead xD
1st project so easy to follow 😊 thank you!
what about using yarn size bulky 5? Do we still need to make them this way with the 17 back crochet and the 7 slip stitches? the numbers will vary because of the yarn thickness/size. Please help! Thanks :)
Perfect! Love this simple and beautiful pattern! Thanks!
So Easy ❤❤❤❤ thank You so much ❤❤❤❤❤
you're soo welcome!! 💖
how many yards of yarn did you guys end up using? is 87 yards enough?
Hey quick question are you chaining 1 after every row or only the hdc row?
Could this pattern be adjusted to be made with weight 5 yarn rather than 6?
Will this fit men’s size too or should I adjust it?
Ahhhh I love love love this tutorial!! Thank you Erin 💜
I have a question! When finished with row 2, do I chain 1 before starting row 3? I noticed you said to chain 1 before starting row 4, but I wasn't sure if row 3 needed a chain 1 beforehand. Thanks so much!
Thank u for the tutorial. Do u think i can add more chains if i want to make it longer at the too? Thanks again!
Hi
What if you ch 30
Or more. I’m Ready less
What is the number for the slip stitch pattern. It couldn’t me 7. Thx
Do you have a written pattern for diff size. You did 7. You start with 24. This could would not be constant. It’s relative. WC ch 30 would have diff number for the pattern.? Thanks
I wish the creator would reply to the people asking these questions since they have responded to others
i think 9 ss would be great for a ch 30 pattern
amazing!!! first time trying to make a piece for myself and not just learn patterns, cant believe you helped me to make something so cute and cozy! just did not get if you add one more hook at the end of each row or only every second one? (sorry for my english hehe)

Place the work u have done on around ur head and keep adding rows till it fits all the way around! Good luck ! 😊
@nikiclaire5668 yeah, because I don't already do that
Super cute 🥰 Thank you for making this tutorial Erin🙏❤️
Erin, do you have any recommendations on an alternative way to close the top of the hat? The specific yarn I’m using gets stuck between the stitches and keeps ripping when I pull it. 😢
Greet tutorial!!! This is exactly what I was looking for
Hi I'm still really new to crocheting but I was wondering if it makes a difference in what way/direction you do your yarn over? Only because I always yearn over in the opposite direction from how you do it in your video here?
Hello !! Do you know how many meters it total it takes to make the beanie ?? Just so I can buy the right amount of yarn, thank you!!
Hello, so when you're doing the 7 slip stitch roll at the end, you don't chain 1 and turn
How many skeins required? Didn’t see in script.
Did it success and it fits perfect simple beanie and easy to follow along and crotchet good for beginners as well as experts as a relaxing project
Thank you so much for posting this pattern, it's so perfect! I'm on to making my second one
I failed miserably! 😢 this was my first ever crochet project and I failed choosing the right yarn and right size. that was fun though 😂
mine somehow came out too short in length to do a flip cuff :/ not really sure what happened, my tension was good, and i used the right hook, and weight yarn..maybe my heads bigger or something lol
if it helps... i have a smaller head lol
Yeah same- i wanted a thicker brim to flip up and I’m unsure how I would add more to get it the length I want
@@sunshinepumpkin23 i’d say just manually add a brim if you’ve already started the beanie. chain the length you want, and single
crochet in the second chain from the hook all the way down, slip stitch in two stitches on the base of the hat, turn your work and then single
crochet in the back loops only of the chain and that’ll creat a ribbed brim
I am struggling! When I get to the part where I need to crochet 17, it takes me to the end of my work. I do not have 7 stitches left.
If I wanted to start with more on the chain, should I use the same ratios, like 7 stitches before the end to slip stitch or should it be more?
I messed up on mine lol the chain was good but after the first row I looked at the piece and it was half the length that the chain was. I guess I was putting the half doubles in the wrong chain. I must have skipped one every time.
Also the wool ease yarn I got seems super fuzzy and seems to get in the way. Was yours fuzzier that it looked on camera?
Love your beanie!! What is the gauge for your beanie? I am a pretty loose crocheter, so sometimes I have to go down a hook size for my hats to fit.
The gathering at the top creates a hard bump...
Not sure if it's just the yarn I used, but is there a way to fix that?
I love this tutorial 😍😍
So excited for this!!! Thankyou!
If I’m using thinner yarn, like a bulky?? Do I need to chain more ?? To make it wide enough to fit around someone’s head ?
Yes.
No the chain is how long the hat is.
@@lyricsornah9882 is this why on another beanie it was super super long bc I thought the chain was the circumference around my head
wanted to share this funny i had.
So i was on row 16 and noticed the top was angled. I FREAKED out. so i restarted at like row 4. then i realized that it’s not gonna be straight….. so i restarted for nothing 😂
it’s also 1am, so i am definitely not thinking
How did you end up with 26? I don’t understand how we went from 24 to 26
i love this but is it optional to not do the 7 slip stitches in row 2 and the other rows after it? sorry if you don’t understand i don’t know how to explain it. if i don’t do it would it ruin the pattern?
You don’t necessarily have to do them but if you don’t your hat will be pretty bulky at the top when you close it up since it’s bulky/thick yarn
How many skeins did you use in this project?!
so so so so so cute!!! not only is this method sooo useful but also turned out amazing!!
The last part was a little to fast for me but my hat still came out good .
Hey! Between row 2 and row 3, after you finished the last slip stitch in the row, did you chain one first before turning your work and resuming with the full row of HDCs? I am following your tutorial and it's been very helpful so far, but I'm confused on whether or not you chain one for every single row before turning your work, or you do that just for every other row.

Yes always chain one at the start of your row, especially before you start your hdc!
Thank you for asking I was just wondering the same ✨🥰
I didnt add them cause i considered that you had to add one only on the other rows the larger one. And my hat looks great didnt make it wierd so if ever you make the mistake like me its gonna be perfectly fine.☺️
How many would you chain if making a hat for a 3-4 year old, with the same yarn?
Why can’t I access any of the patterns from the links? For example, if I click on Ravelry link-the hat is not listed. Pls help
Hello any suggestions for stitch count or hook size for a size 5 yarn?
I made the beanie yesterday and it turned out so well! Thankyou!!
Could you tell me what's the best method to store it? Is a plastic bag fine?
If the yarn was thinner would there need to be more chains?
Yes absolutely!
