    Thank you for ending the myth of the easy "magic circle." The slip knot you show is the best!

      Amy Lynn Hess I totally agree lol I’m not a fan of that darn magic circle!!!

    • @contactjoy4140
      @contactjoy4140 3 года назад +2

      It isn't a myth about the magic loop/circle.
      The magic loop/circle is used to create a sliding knot that is pulled tight to eliminate any opening at the crown of the cap.
      It isn't necessary to use the magic circle for this cap.
      One day you will be crocheting something and there will be an opening that is impossible to close because you used a slip knot instead of the magic loop/circle.
      That's the moment when you'll wish that you had learned how to make the slip knot (magic loop/circle) to tighten the work and you'll have no teeny opening at all.
      It is important to understand the purpose of "why" to begin a certain piece in a particular manner rather than discard it.

    So many people complaining about that HDC. It's actually a herringbone half double crochet (HHDC) You can use either type stitch; you will just have a different texture.
    Thanks for a great tutorial! I just worked mine in rounds without the slip stitch or chain 2. It looks great! I have that same yarn you're working with and love the silver tones.

    I couldn't understand why my hat was so very much smaller than yours, but I plugged along per your assurance and after I finished adding the first ear cover I realized you were doing a double crochet, not a half double crochet. I crochet using the US pattern/stitch style so now that I know why I had such a small hat, I'll frog it out and redo it with the double crochet (but not until the morning, it's bedtime by now). It is so quick and easy, your instructions and your video are great!

      I had such a good laugh when she showed that.I'm left handed& I tried for years until I watched a young, left-handed, Spanish speaking man do it & that's when I finally got it~ After doing it for a while, I thought, Magic circle is just a glorified term for a slip knot.
      That's why I laughed when I saw this and thought "she's the one who should be teaching everyone the "magic circle"

    @marinac9854 6 лет назад +1

    I just tried the way you do the half double crochet and I personally think it looks better the way you do it, I did them side by side and they are the same size, for anyone who's wondering, she creates these half double crochet by yarning over, inserting her hook into the stitch, pulling up a loop, but instead of yarning over and pulling through all three loops on her hook, she instead pulls through pulls up a loop and pulls that loop that she just pulled through the stitch, through the second loop on the hook behind it, and she yarns over and pulls through the remaining two loops on her hook, the stitch comes out looking like little z's, so pretty and they are about the same exact size as the traditional half double crochet, I hope I explained it well and I hope I saw it correctly!

But to my surprise I am able too. You explained every row very well. I am hoping to finish it today. Great job! Thank you!

    I love your work, very beautiful! I am a very experienced crocheter, I don't upload videos on crocheting but I love to watch and sometimes make something that I like. I mean no disrespect nor mean to affend anybody, but what you call a HDC is definitely a DC...there is no other way of making a HDC. If anyone is feeling confused, look up "Basic Crochet Stitches" and enter HDC, I have been crocheting for 35yrs or more, and this is not a HDC. They look very similar, but I personally prefer the HDC because it looks tighter.

    • @mufasababe
      @mufasababe 7 лет назад +1

      In US terms, a hdc you pull through 3 loops.

      I think I figured it out lol. I used a poly yarn a friend of mine picked out for his hat and I done what she instructed and mine is NOT anywhere near the size she said it should be. I am going to have to frog all the way to 5 and keep increasing until I think it might fit his head then do the 6 rows of "HDC"

    This is a cute hat! Thank you for sharing how to make it! I'm making one for my husband, but the yarn he wants me to use is medium weight(4), and requires a 5mm hook. I'm assuming the instructions you give for this will not work because of thickness of the wool. I'm new to crochet and have no idea how to figure out how to compensate. Can someone please help? Thank you!

    It's a really nice headband. But, on your written pattern, I wish you would include "stitch counts" at the end of your increase rows & again for the decreasing. When I'm using a pattern...I make a point to count my stitches when I complete a RW-RND...that way I know I'm staying on track with the pattern. I watched the video hoping you mentioned them so I could write them down on the pattern for myself...but you don't
