@SilverstarWarriors that is a huge sz P hook!!!!

@3rosesred looking at it the hook looks like plastic........mikey really loves to use bamboo hooks and uses plastic sometimes as well! he feels that the metalones are cold and take heat from your hand and cause cramping!!! :)

Chanel from mikeys helpdesk........ :)

@beckyg1957 it might be easier for you to try using a 4ply worsted weight yarn like redheart super saver yarn to learn with and then move on to using the bulky fuzzy stuff that 5-6 ply! you can even use two strings of the 4ply together at the same time for thickness if you want to!

good luck......

@ILuvStAugustineFL dont be sorry because your a beginner!!!!! :) crocheting can be a bit confusing at times and its good to ask questions!!!!! so when doing the catherine wheel stitch you want to make sets of 10 over and over until your project is to its desired length.....then you add 6 more to...

@iLiekSkittlez here mikey is using a 4ply worsted weight yarn.........you can use any yarn you want for this project though......

@lovet210 a smaller hook is going to make a pattern smaller. thats why its not sizing up right If you are using a sz H you can still follow the videos but not sure how the sizing will turn out. you can keep going around to make up for the length but may not stretch over your head. if you want to...

@rosieopolos @rosieopolos mikey is using an J sz hook for this project but if you have and I or k those will work..... they willl just make your stitches slightly smaller or larger depending on the sz you use.......

@gabyblabla74 hey dont be too hard on yourself and certainly dont give up!!!!! it takes a lot of practice to get these stitches right!!! You will get it just keep at it ...... if you practice it will get easier and easier!! dont forget that if your getting tired or frustrated take a time out and...

@babygirltlu you could just take a needle and thread and tack it in a few places onto whatever you want! :)

hope this helps.....chanel@mikeys helpdesk

@bodacash if im understanding your question right the last single stitch is in orange then you go back to using the white as previously shown in the videos and you alternate back and forth as oyu move forward with the project! :)

@lolytte90 hello this is chanel @mikeys helpdesk........i would say make it 19in so that when it stretches a little it will fit snug and not be too loose on you after a few times of wearing it! another way to check for fit is to actually put the band on your head as you get to 18-19 inches to se...

@jlp1994able

hello this is chanel from mikeys helpdesk.........you can use 4ply worsted weight yarn....go for it!!! :)

@billiebutton18...... ha ha ha...... thats okay.... you are just learning!!!! :) remember when double crocheting say to yourself "wrap yarn around...into the hole.... pull thru yarn..... pull thru 2 and pull thru 2 sometimes it helps to have little saying and jingles to help remember!!!

@borjack500 r u wondering how to make the hat???

chanel @mikeys helpd desk :)

@Louise1107 this means put 2 triple crochets together in one hole......chanel :)

@ivarvara your right your not supposed to count the initial slipknot stitch as a stitch. this is something mikey was taught to do as a child and didnt learn til later that it was wrong..... some of his old videos still show it that way..........so do it the new way!

chanel@mikeys helpdesk :)

@molidaab hello this is chanel from mikeys helpdesk....I am prettty sure mikey is using a K sz hook here! its hard to tell but its either a Jor Ksz and either one will do just fine for this stitch!!! :)

@Alissamariemurphy hello this is chanel from mikeys helpdesk.....mikey isn't taking any requests for videos right now because of time restraints but keep your eye out for what he has coming out! he will do a video here and there when he has the time!

@ilvap29 hey this is chanel from mikeys helpdesk......he is saying continue to loom knit the sock and the sock should measure 8in from the top of the cuff to but if oyu dont think thats long enough you can make it longer if you want to but remeber you will have the heel and the front of the sock ...

@wallydoo527 the scarf is loom knitted but im sure if you can find a scarf pattern you like you could crochet a scarf and add one of the ends of the flower to it.....

chanel@mikeys helpdesk :)

@matthewperry1982 you make your chain with multiples of ten.....once your chain is the sz you want to make your blanket then add the seven stitches.... these are extra stitches added on to your sets of ten!

chanel @mikeys helpdesk :)

@sweetplori you may want to check some looming sites on the web....just search loom knitting hat patterns and see if there are different ways to do it......i know with crocheting you can do the seam in different ways but not sure on the loom....

Chanel @Mikeys helpdesk.... :)
