It took me a full day, because I kept messing up with the earflaps, but it was really easy, and only my second hat completed! Thank you so much, I must have watched this video 10 X through before I ever started! LOL Very easy to follow :O)

[DzCrochetCreations]

@nanaof4babies Your so welcome! Thank you :) Im happy to hear it was easy!!

I tried to make this hat for a 3 year-old, so I used a size H hook and dropped 1 increase, but the hat turned out very, very small (although I do crochet tightly). It barely fit my 16 month-old. If I would have followed the pattern exactly and just used a size H hook, would it have been the correct size for a small child?

[DzCrochetCreations]

@GingieLover Yes it should have fit properly doing it this way. I am sorry for not getting back to you sooner. I hope you have had success with it!

Hey D, when doing a childs size should we drop the hook size and stop decreasing at which round? Thanks

[DzCrochetCreations]

@MzCrochetDreams No I would just use a smaller hook :)

Very easy to follow tutorial. I love how you crochet continuously, I usually do it in rounds. Very nice technique. THanks for the lovely tutorial.

I made one for myself and it came out tight... i suppose i have tight stitches.... To make it bigger, can i just add a couple increasing rounds?

very helpful. I have been working on this ear flap and now i know two different ways to make them. I especially like that you made an adult size hat. Wonderful.

[1991lnhs]

i did this hat in red for my friend. can you do it without the flaps or does it matter? it's going to be for a boy.
