hiya long time no see. QUESTION.. there is a local shop in my area that im in hopes of doing business with, however he has giving me quite a challenge trying to find a actual "brim implant". i HAVE LOOKED ALL OVER! i generally make my crochet caps with brims by doing the back and forth method,however he wants the brims in his store to have that super solid brim. DO U KNOW WHERE DO I FIND THIS PARTICULAR PIECE OF PLASTIC OR MATERIAL ? thanks so much my deadline is JAN 27th.TO HAVE IT DONE!
Thanks I followed your instructions and my hat came out perfect, although I used a Ghook because its for my toddler. Thanks for explaining exactly which stitch to go into, that really helped me
Wonderful video Teresa! But hey guys check out Down2EarthKreations! Its awesome. Its by my friends mom and her dream is to become big by doing what shes best at.. C R O C H E T !
Please check her out ♡
Just type in the search " crochet hats and purses utber618 " and then you'll see it! First one.
When I got to round 5 I ended up with 47 stitches not 50 and I followed the directions =/ Im trying again with a different marker for the yarn. I would really like to make this hat, made the kingston one last night and I have had so many compliments. Im so addicted to your videos and crocheting right now
Thank you so much for this..I was wondering why when I make hats, they end up with a point..now I know why, I am going to try to make this...thank you again
Thank you so much Teresa! You are my hero, LOL! I would still be making just single crocheted and double crocheted items if it weren't for you. I've been watching you for a few years now. I may even look on Ebay to see if they have any of the mannequin heads.
I love all your hats. So far I have made the mans beanie and the kingston. Next I am trying the Raggae Rasta. But I do have a question. Where do you get the mannequin head for modeling the hats? Can you get them at regular craft stores or do they have to be ordered?
@marnao122 The first mannequin head was a Styrofoam head purchased from Amazon. I painted it a few different times. They are pretty inexpensive. My current mannequin head was purchased from a local beauty supply store. It was a bit more expensive. The Styrofoam works just as well.
i have been trying to create an envelope bag and i have been trying some tutorials i've seen but it is just not working,i do not understand the part where they say eg. chain 32 sc into the 2nd ch from the hook and in each chain across,what do they mean each ch across?please respond....thanks
Finaly!! I started this today and it only took me a little over 3 hours to finish XD. Time to add my Kitty Cat ears to it. Thank You so much for the vid!
@tjw1963 Hi Theresa! I made one of this. Just finished last night. WHat i did is I increase the stitches from 4 single crochet and increase, after that I made an addition 5 single crochet and increase so that it will come up not that small, not that big. Just enough for me. And I love it! I'm gonna make another one for my husband. Thanks a lot for sharing this tutorial.
Thank you very much Theresa! I made this the first time with no problems other than I kept forgetting to count. I didn't add the brim on this one but I'm glad I know how to if I ever wanted to.
I made three hats with this video and the brim part your basketweave hat. I like to mix and match patterns. You are one of my favorite Youtube instructors.
thank you for this pattern! I did however, find that this made a too big hat for me even though i have a larger head than most so I only added 5 extra stitches on rows 4 and 5 so i ended up with 50 stitches in the end and it works out perfectly and fits great! you are awesome, love learning from your videos :)
I made my second hat today. This time I followed your complete video and it looks great. I used Red Heart Cafe (light brown) and did three rows four rows from the end in Red Heart Platoon (mulitple of brown,gray and tan). The Platoon made its own design in the hat. I just love it.
How many rows of the top would I need to do for a mans hat?
I tell all my friends I attend Youtube University and you are one of my instructors in Crochet Class 101.
@yumyums238 maybe you naturally crochet tight, your crochet hook may be smaller or your yarn could be slightly smaller. There are many variable that could make your cap smaller.
I made this cap for my mom a year ago. She loved it then but loves it more now. She was recently diagnosed with stage 3 colon cancer and is undergoing chemo. She has lost some hair and this cap covers the "thin spots" beautifully. You made a lovely ladie's battle a little more tolerable. (I'm making her one in every color) God Bless you.
@BPnJC You are not working 2 stitches in the same stitch. On increase rounds, you work more than one stitch, so the crown of the cap expands and gets larger.
@trisha4196 Size K will probably work but keep in mind the hat will turn out larger. You may need to modify if you find it is turning out larger than what you are looking for.
Are these videos are rated? Easy, medium,hard. Although I am a beginner, I can be a bit ambitious, and need to know if the projects I am selecting required more skill than what I have aquired. Like this hat, that I am in love with!!!!
@tsnell80 I do have a beginner crochet playlist that I will send to to you. There is over an hour of video of beginner tutorials that you can watch over and over again until you get the hang of the basic stitches.
@AliMarieG There is a mute on the video player! Once you are familiar with the stitches, you can shut the sound off. There are people from outside the USA who learn from the video alone and don't understand a word I say.
hi teresa, i am such a huge fan of your stuff!! thanks for all your postings! i was wondering if you have a viking hat pattern that you could possibly share.
thanks again for sharing all your gorgeous creations! it's much appreciated!
Excuse me, I want crochet a hat for my grandmother, what kind of hat would you recommend? Whenever it is cold she get headache, so I was not sure what hat would fit her. Please reply ASAP. Thank you.
Hi I have done the Hat but it comes small like for a child what do I need to do. I have follow the instructions do I need to add more rounds in the beggining. Thank you
@Miss1yoly It is possible that you may crochet tighter, your hook is smaller or the yarn is smaller. You will adjust by work more increase stitches and rounds at the beginning. Increasing is working the two stitches in the same stitch
To anyone who wants to make this hat in an infant size, follow the pattern just leave out round 6 and adjust the rest of the rounds to 50 hdc. I am currently making this hat and am using a 4.00 hook. Its the PERFECT size for my almost 4 month old daughter. :) So excited about his hat! Thanks for a great pattern Crochet Geek!!
I can't see where you're making those stitches! T_T I really really want to be able to make a hat like this but I can never tell where you're making your stitches in any of your videos and I get lost right in the beginning. It's really frustrating.
i tried doing it but it didn't look like a hat at all .. it was too small (i'm using size 5mm hook ) .. and it was a little twirled over each other like if one edge is headed downwards then the other edge would be headed upwards so it ended in a flat shape and didn't become a hat i don't know what did i do wrong ?!!! .. would you help me ?!!
this is way to hard and confusing i dont get the first five seconds of the thing , and every video is like that to me, i dont understand any of them, plz help me:()
@Stephy27Pooh I was using a size I/5.5mm hook in the video. You could try using a larger crochet hook, one or two sizes larger. That is the easiest way to increase. The other way is to use your same size crochet hook, and work more increase stitches and additional increase rounds. This will make the hat expand more and get larger, using a smaller size crochet hook.
my question is, if u are using a pencil grip couse im looking for them in store and the only thay i find is for pencil not for the needle, and if is that waht u use to stick it to not fall apart. Healp me please........ lol.

@camodudestrikesagain Yes it is common for men to crochet. Since I have been on YouTube, more men are crocheting. My statistics tell me that 18%-25% of my viewers are male.
Hi I think the hat really well but unfortunately I can not brim, it is either wavy or it hangs, or looks too small, I use the needle size and teaching but it does not work can you tell me how to do it right or could so? lg Nadine
I am so confused....once you start on round 7, do you just keep doing the straight 60 HDC, or at the beginning of each round do you do a single crochet, then do the 60 HDC. My hat hasn't begin to look like a hat yet and I'm on round 11?

awsome! i love all your videos! I love to crochet but have never been able to read a pattern! i began watching your video's last week ... andd i think i have made one of everything now lol ... your an amazing teacher! oh the possibilities now! before all i ever made was blankets and scarfs!
I am trying to make this hat for a 4 year old boy using red heart detroit 3 ply yarn, but I think it' s a bit small. I was thinking I could make a few extra round before the brim.
Ohh and I'm using a 4.5 mm crochet hook and I have a normal tension, I mean not tight.
Hallo ich finde deine mützen echt gut nur leider verstehe ich keinen wort da ich leider kein englisch kann,kann ich sie nicht nach machen,was ich echt machen würde,aber habe ich keine englisch kenntisse
Thank you Teresa! I Finally did it!!! I thought at first it was physically impossible...but after trying and taking it apart more than several times...I figured out what I was doing wrong and by reading your written instructions, I figured out the spot I messed up...and it turned out great...my very first hat...and it's cute! Thank so much for the lesson...you have a new friend in Idaho....I can't wait to do another one! ~Kelly
@taleflame There are many variables that will make the size different each time. The size of the crochet hook, the size of the yarn, how many stitches are in each round and your personal tension.
Thanks. Sorry this was my first time stopping by. I was in awe and didn't look for basics. I've been considering purchasing a hat like that but the prices were ridiculous. Thanks again.
@MostHigh1979 If I can do it... you can do it! For two years I'd been trying to understand the concept of crocheting a hat. I found TJW on the internet and learned in one day! I'd say stick with the basic single crochet and make patterns using that, then graduate up to half's, and doubles, slip stitches etc. That's how I did it. Good luck, and don't ever give up. Once you get it, it'll be hard to put it down!
Hi, I LOVE this hat and think it's super cute. It turned out perfect. I was wondering what the best route would be to downsize this style hat to a toddler size hat. I want to make one for my little girl and her head circumference is 18 inches.

on round 3, do you mean do 1HDC in nxt stitch and then the next stitch do 2, then 1, then 2 etc? or do you mean do 1 HDC in nxt stitch and then do 2 in the rest of them all the way round??
Thank you very much for this video! I've just started to crochet and I already made a scarf and now, with the help of your video, I made the hat ! You are a great teacher! But I've got one question: I did everything like you did, but my hat is a small version of yours (and I did the same amount of stitches and stuff). How does that come?
(Sorry for my bad English, I'm from Belgium ;-) )

@cbestify It is possible that you may have used a larger crochet hook and/or larger yarn. Maybe to many increase stitches were worked. I do have the written instructions posted on my crochet blog so you can check the stitch count.
Hi, Right after you joined the tenth half double crochet to the next stitch to start round 2, you showed us about the confusion with crocheting between the stitches....you then proceeded to crochet more half double crochets. How many did you do? Then all of a sudden you're saying that you have 10 half double crochets and that you have 10 more to do. I'm so confused...maybe if you could include a "round" list in the info box saying how many half double crochets are in each round, that may help.
@tjw1963 Thank you! But I still must be misunderstanding something. In your blog, round 1 is10 HDC in Loop. Do not join and work in continual round. What do you mean not to join and work in a continual round? Do I do more HDC after the 10 I already did into the loop? And then 2 HDC in each HDC around for round 2? I'm sorry!
@dutterdiedutch I will send you a playlist for the beginner crochet stitches. Practice with the basics and then come back to try out an easy project like this hat.
Hi! I'm loving all your posts and your blog. Just wondering can this be made smaller for a baby or toddler? Would I just change my hook size? Also is there a specific difference between left and right handed? I'm left handed but have just learnt my stitches from watching right handed people? Would they still be right? Thanks again for all your post!

Thanks again for all your post!
@LeeshMedia You can use a smaller hook to make the hat smaller. Smaller yarn will work too. If you visit my main channel, you will find a playlist with hats that are smaller for children. Crochet is the same for right and left hand except for the direction. You can decide which tutorial you want to use.
Is there a way I can make the top a bit rounded instead of squared as so? I'm wanting to make a rasta cap with a brim but cannot find afree pattern for one. Need some help!!
@dawnakaangel An increase is where you are working two or more stitches in the same stitch. It is so the crown of the hat will expand and increase in size.
I love the squeeky noise your hook makes at the beginning of the video, it's adorable and funny at the same time. n__n I knit as apposed to crochet, but I would love to get into this. I just loose count. ): I can't count very well at all. Any Tips?
I must Thank you! You have taught me to crochet. I could barely do a chain and now I have christmas presents for the whole family. Hats with and without flower, socks, booties and baby hats, even working on a blanket now. So thank you and Merry Christmas, in this time were times are tough it's great that you've been so kind to teach with such patience and for free. I can now give presents to the family when last year I couldn't so thank you thank you!
whenever i am working in the round or using increases... the top of my hat is always very wavy or frumpy. for example, the last increase for this hat (60 stitches) made the hat look like some kind of polygon... what am I doing wrong with the hats?
thank you for all your videos. i have made this hat for the first time but i can't seem to get the brim right,it is turning out wavy. please help me what am i doing wrong?!
I am new to crochet videos on youtube. Yours are the BEST i have found so far! Please please pleaaaase make some tutorials for making pet clothes! Like hats and sweaters....Those would be big hits!
Hello - first I want to say thank you for such great videos! They are really helpful for beginners. Secondly I want to ask you a question. I am looking to make a hat like this, with a brim, but a bit baggier. Maybe could better be described as round in shape, rather than form-fitting to the head of the person wearing it. Could I use this pattern and just maybe add increases in certain spots, or what would be the best way to do this? Thank you so much :)
I made a hat using the puff stitch and I added the brim you are making in this video following your instruction, but my brim ends up wavy. Could you tell me what am I doing wrong?? Thanks
By the way, your videos are very educational and very easy to follow. I love them.
@tjw1963 Do you mean working less than the 38 total stitches or not doing 2 HDC in one at the start of the brim? Mine usually comes out wavy also - have been wondering how to correct this. I LOVE this pattern and already have 10 orders for them for my fundraising effort. Thank you so much!
@Kathypinaz Work less than 38 stitches and not working increase stitches. Increasing is working two stitches in the same stitch. To many will make the brim wavy.
@tjw1963 Ok, I tried it by alternating 2 HDC and then 1 HDC for the first row of the brim instead of 2 HDC in each. I still worked it for 19 stitches. It came out much better and no waves. Thank you for your response and all of your wonderful hard work.

I can't see where you're making those stitches! T_T I really really want to be able to make a hat like this but I can never tell where you're making your stitches in any of your videos and I get lost right in the beginning. It's really frustrating.

i tried doing it but it didn't look like a hat at all .. it was too small (i'm using size 5mm hook ) .. and it was a little twirled over each other like if one edge is headed downwards then the other edge would be headed upwards so it ended in a flat shape and didn't become a hat i don't know what did i do wrong ?!!! .. would you help me ?!!

Stephy27Pooh 7 months ago
@Stephy27Pooh I was using a size I/5.5mm hook in the video. You could try using a larger crochet hook, one or two sizes larger. That is the easiest way to increase. The other way is to use your same size crochet hook, and work more increase stitches and additional increase rounds. This will make the hat expand more and get larger, using a smaller size crochet hook.

I am so confused....once you start on round 7, do you just keep doing the straight 60 HDC, or at the beginning of each round do you do a single crochet, then do the 60 HDC. My hat hasn't begin to look like a hat yet and I'm on round 11?

Hi, Teresa
I am trying to make this hat for a 4 year old boy using red heart detroit 3 ply yarn, but I think it' s a bit small. I was thinking I could make a few extra round before the brim.
Ohh and I'm using a 4.5 mm crochet hook and I have a normal tension, I mean not tight.
What' s your advise?

@MostHigh1979 If I can do it... you can do it! For two years I'd been trying to understand the concept of crocheting a hat. I found TJW on the internet and learned in one day! I'd say stick with the basic single crochet and make patterns using that, then graduate up to half's, and doubles, slip stitches etc. That's how I did it. Good luck, and don't ever give up. Once you get it, it'll be hard to put it down!

Hi, Right after you joined the tenth half double crochet to the next stitch to start round 2, you showed us about the confusion with crocheting between the stitches....you then proceeded to crochet more half double crochets. How many did you do? Then all of a sudden you're saying that you have 10 half double crochets and that you have 10 more to do. I'm so confused...maybe if you could include a "round" list in the info box saying how many half double crochets are in each round, that may help.

What do you mean not to join and work in a continual round? Do I do more HDC after the 10 I already did into the loop? And then 2 HDC in each HDC around for round 2? I'm sorry!

@LeeshMedia You can use a smaller hook to make the hat smaller. Smaller yarn will work too. If you visit my main channel, you will find a playlist with hats that are smaller for children. Crochet is the same for right and left hand except for the direction. You can decide which tutorial you want to use.

@dawnakaangel An increase is where you are working two or more stitches in the same stitch. It is so the crown of the hat will expand and increase in size.

Hello - first I want to say thank you for such great videos! They are really helpful for beginners. Secondly I want to ask you a question. I am looking to make a hat like this, with a brim, but a bit baggier. Maybe could better be described as round in shape, rather than form-fitting to the head of the person wearing it. Could I use this pattern and just maybe add increases in certain spots, or what would be the best way to do this? Thank you so much :)

@Kathypinaz Work less than 38 stitches and not working increase stitches. Increasing is working two stitches in the same stitch. To many will make the brim wavy.

@tjw1963 Ok, I tried it by alternating 2 HDC and then 1 HDC for the first row of the brim instead of 2 HDC in each. I still worked it for 19 stitches. It came out much better and no waves. Thank you for your response and all of your wonderful hard work.
