Oh my gosh! That's awesome! Wish my crochet work was that cool. Let's see how xmas goes. Please 🙏 make more videos they are wonderful. Have a great Thanksgiving too
What a great idea ! I’ve never seen these I just love this! I Have lots of friends who would definitely wear these hats 😂 now that’s keeping it real. 👍 up hats off to you 😄 great idea great job can’t wait to get started making them.
Hey what do you think of this one?? It's slightly more complex, but hopefully still easy to follow. I am having fun with these, I hope you are too 😆😎🧜🏼♀️
Never paid much attention to beer-can hats, but a friend of mine's been getting requests and wanted to know how to deal with the can edges. So I looked around and found this. I started linking the cans together, and at five cans, didn't think the crown was big enough, so I ran an extra row around the last can (fortunately, that was the "front and center" one) for a bit more circumference. That should have added 3-4 stitches to the top, but I ended up a whole can short when I tried to join the top, so I had to add another round to the top to get the stitches to match (so I lost my "crease"). then I wanted a bit more of a brim, so I added two rounds. Take two, I'm probably going to use a smaller hook for a stiffer brim and see if I can eke out a little more height out of the side cans (and maybe stagger the "shorts") to get a more natural crease on top. (and for some bizarre reason, my comment got added to a bunch of commments for a different video, even though this one was on top.)
@@bohemianmermaid I'm saying the top, made as described, only had enough stitches to match up with five labels' worth of the crown. I wore it to my painting group to show it to the crocheter that's been getting requests from family to do beer-can buckets (she wondered how to deal with the edges of the cans), then I went to the library where I got an unsolicited comment about it. (At the time I made it, the only cans in the recycling bag were Seattle Cider Company "Dry" cans, which I find amusing, since the stitching covers the "hard cider", so people could easily get the wrong meaning)
@@wendygoerl9162 lol. I still must disagree, it all fits if you follow the part about decreasing the top edge of the crown. The pattern is also available in my shop. Zero issues in 2 years. But great job making it work!
I’ve completed 2 now. The only thing I did different was make an oval for the top instead of a circle. Tried an oval for the brim, but didn’t care for the look of that.
The complete crochet pattern for the Beer Can Cowboy Hat is now available here: payhip.com/b/slKiw. More patterns are on the way!
Thanks for the pattern! I did find it easier to use a can opener on the top before cutting down the side of the can.

Yeah it is actually 6 labels as I say/show in the video.

Nice!
How do you smooth out the cans
Hm if you mean the edges, just cut off any jagged spots.
Ok cool thanks for your help @@bohemianmermaid
Ok cool thanks @@bohemianmermaid
would like to now sand paper you sand down the edges all the way around then hole punch?
No, just use the scissors to smooth out any pokey parts.
How about a pattern for a mad hatter type hat using the tall boy cans?
Ah yes! I see those around. That is one I have not done yet, will ponder 🤔
I’m trying to find the written pattern for this cowboy hat. Is there one yet?
Not yet. But I'm working on it!
I’ll keep on the lookout for it. Thanks!
