Eyelet Beanie - Includes Brim Tutorial Part 2 of 2

[mccaffmom]

Thank you so much for all your videos. I have learned a lot. I have just finished my hat, but my brim is wavy. Why is that?

@mccaffmom HI

With the brim it can throw a tantrum aka wavy :) It is becasue there are to many stitches on the first row, So if you did a increase (2 sttiches in each sttich) in every stich, try doing a increase in every third sttich and do the rest of the video for the other rows,

Hm. Somehow each time I attempt to crochet a beanie, it seems too big to me. I measure out the crown to the right length. It still seemed kind of lose so I followed your directions on how to decrease. I half double crocheted to five and did the decrease and then on the next row I half double crocheted to ten and did the decrease again. It still fills a little loose. Maybe it's supposed to be that way... I'm not sure.

I am using a 4 ply yarn and a G/4.25mm hook.

@bleujinnii I would try making 1 less increase round and see how that goes :)

I'm up to the brim and it's starting to wave a little bit. will it straighten out or do i have to pull out my stitches and re-do the brim?

I am on the seventh row and my hat and it just started curling up a little, but it looks way too big! Will it get smaller as I continue? I did only 2 increase rounds using a size j hook, but I only did 10 or 11 double crochet stitches on the starting row/ row 1 because of the size of my hook. Please help me.

@pinkleopard28 Hi, no it wont get smaller as you continue, Is the hook the correxct size that is recommended for your yarn ?
