Art of Crochet by Teresa - Wacky Hat Part 1

[angelagarb]

i have been following your videos for about a year! I first found you while in Japan with my husband during deployment in the Marine Corp. i learned everything from holding my yarn to making baby blankets with designs all by watching your videos ;o) Thank you for all of your easy to follow tutorials. It's now helping me pass the time while he's gone for 6mths. <3

@angelagarb Thank you for your service to our country while your husband is deployed. The spouses play a big role! I was a military spouse for 16 years and have an understanding to what it is like. Now I have two sons who are active duty. My oldest is due back from Afghanistan at any time.

[angelagarb]

@tjw1963 Thank you ;o) ! And I wish your sons a safe and quick return! Wheew, 16yrs?!! you are a truly an inspiration. Thank you once again for all of your patience and selfless help ;o)

Would you give me some ideas for jewelry? Thanks in advanced for ALL your videos

Flowers.

[crochetmania123]

thanks so much for showing me this tutorial. one question: what size hook would you recommend for crocheting the motifs (circles and triangles) thanks so much!!!

[tjw1963]

You are welcome. You can use hook sizes G, H or I.

[charmcast1]

in england we use needles in width measurmentsh ave you got the conversions

I think this would also be cute as a wristlet style purse...add a few beads along all of the dark edging and on the wristlet band for a 20's charm look. Maybe sew in a silk liner?

[chi1235]

I love it!

[tjw1963]

Thank you. :)

[tjw1963]

The beginning stitch counts as a chain 3.

[OuijaGurl]

for the small circle with 15 dc in it does one of the dc count as a chain 3 or is it 15 dc and a chain 3

[smartbamboo]

Hey!! can i use different colored motifs to make a blanket ?? coz i have seen few pics over the internet...

[tjw1963]

You can use any combination of motifs to make a blanket.

[mlazzzz]

if you want, would you explain how to estimate size of hat when making one?? sure would appreciate it. thanks.

[celiaak]

It look original, I'm loving the way it looks.

[tjw1963]

You can make it out of any shapes you would like to. You could make it out of all circles, triangles, squares, etc.

[frecklehero]

you should do a vid on how to crochet a sock.

I just figured out on my own how.

It was hard for me to figure it out by myself.

[tjw1963]

I will look forward to your video demonstration of the sock. :)
