Hey guys! So, this is a complete rewrite. If you liked the last Alyssa hat that I made back in 2017, then you are really gonna love this one! This is the larger version, designed for heads 22-25' around, and there is a brand new pattern for this one as well. I hope you love this hat and it's new design, that you make many and give them as gifts or just make one for yourself! This is a fun, quick project, and it fits so incredibly well!
If you have any questions, please leave them in the comment section below, or you can email me at fibertheory@yahoo.com to ask questions if you feel more comfortable keeping it private.
The written pattern for this project can be found at the link below:

Ok guys! Go, make the hat and I hope you'll email me pics of your finished projects!!
Happy Crocheting!
Hugs...

I just found this pattern and made one of these. I absolutely love how it turned out. Will be making a few more. I love your cabling technique.
Wow! That’s awesome!Thank you so much! These are such great hats for gifts too!! Thank you for your amazing comment! Have a great day!
I watched the whole video before I decided I was going to give this beanie a try. I’ve tried A couple of other cable type beanies in the past, and even though I have experience crocheting, it was still a bit confusing. But you give very good instructions. So I’m excited to give this one a shot. Thanks so much for this very excellent video. I’ll take a picture of my finished product and send it to your email. The only thing I might change about this beanie is that I would make the pom-pom at the top detachable so that It can be removed before the beanie is put in the washer. ❤️
Well, that is such a sweet comment! Thank you so much!! Tutorials are challenging to
make, so I’m glad you enjoyed this video. I would love to see the one you make!! They make great gifts and they sell really well at craft shows!
Have a wonderful day.. and YES!! Make the pompoms detachable!! For sure. 👍🏼
i love your hat patterns!!! I crochet for the homeless, live in SD...so we always have that need in the winter...I always have a copuple of your hats in the giveaways...thanks again, God's blessings
Awe Debra! Thank you! That’s amazing to hear!! Thank you for including my hats in your giveaways and such. That’s amazing. 😇🫶🏻 Gods blessings to you as well. Have a wonderful week.
I just wanted to say that this lady is so so very nice not only she teaches us very slowly and thoroughly but also answer questions very fast. I have asked her questions regarding someone else's work because I wasn't getting the answer from at all, but Amanda not only answer but also said I will figure it out and let you know. Now who does that💖💖

That’s awesome!! I’m so happy for you! I just know you’ll make many cabled things now. 😇 Thanks for watching.!
I like your work very neat. I'm going to make it today. Well done thanks. From Australia. Xx
Thank you so much!! Enjoy!🥰🥰
Amanda, thanks for this beautiful tutorial. Loved the design so much. I have made two beanies and two snoods with this design as gifts. One in red for a friend's daughter and the black for my brother... thanks again.
Oh that’s wonderful Jacinta! Thank you so much for sharing.. and I am so glad you enjoyed the tutorial!! 😇😇
Thank you for sharing, tried and came perfect. What a great tutor you are. BLESS you.
You are so very sweet!! Thank you!! I’m so glad you liked the video and made this hat! Thanks for watching, and I do have a matching scarf pattern on the channel too, in case you’re interested. 😇 Have a wonderful day!
This is so beautiful, I love it 💕🌹🌝. I love arts and crafts. This is my hobby
Thank you so much 😊I do have a scarf tutorial that matches this hat as well if you're interested. Anyway, have a wonderful day!!! Thanks so much for your comment.
I just finished this hat. I love it! This is an excellent tutorial that I had no problem following along:)
Thank you!
Oh that’s wonderful! So glad you liked it! Wear the hat with pride. 😇
I wish the purchased pattern was updated. It was confusing going between it and the old video. I'm sure a lot of it is me too. Thank you for this. I'm going to give it at go today. Just finished the old one last night.
I’m sorry you had trouble with this.. this is the newest tutorial version. I have two patterns written for this same hat, one is in white and one is in red, and they are for different sizes. The red one is the most updated. Did you purchase the pattern that goes to this tutorial?
Thank you for your kind comment. 😇
I have been crocheting for about a month or so, and I didn't think I would be able to do this, but I have and it looks great! Admittedly, I had to slow the playback of the video a few times to see how you did certain things and where you placed certain stitches, but I did it! Btw, slow playback is hilarious, give it a listen 😂 Anyway, my question is, would you ever consider making a cable scarf tutorial? I would love to make these hats and matching scarves for Christmas gifts this year. Thanks for making this video and doing such a great job explaining things. Most other tutorials don't go far enough into the pattern before setting you out on your own. Keep up the great work!
Oh, thank you!! You made my day!! I’m so happy that you had a great time with the video!! I’ll have to check out that playback. You’ve peaked my curiosity!! LOL🤣🤣🤣.
As for the cable scarf, I’ve got you covered!! There is one that matches the hat exactly. Just scroll through my channel and you are sure to find it. I’d love to see your finished projects!! You can send pics to fibertheory@yahoo.com if you feel like sharing. 🥰🥰
Happy crocheting and thanks again!
LOVED IT! This was my first cable. I was gona start the cable with your first video,but could not get where to start the cables and how so stopped. Then found this one and I was amazed at how easy it was. I did use a smaller hook 4.25mm because the stitch was smaller. I did use a 4med yarn but the chains looked to pulled. I am working on my tension,lol Thank you Maybe you can keep you focal point more centered too as I use cc to read it and slow down to playback...lol Awesome thank you
Oh thank you!! I’m so glad I made this video!! The original was made when I was still trying to get better at making videos. I will take your advice to stay more centered. It’s very difficult keeping everything in frame, but I promise to work on it! Thank you for the suggestions. I’m still not as good with recording as I’d like to be, but it’s slowly getting better thankfully. ☺️ I look forward to your pics!
Just finished this one! Thank you so much! I found the pattern and video to follow each other with ease. I appreciate your expertise and kindness to share it.
Awe!! I love this!! Thank you so much! You are so welcome, and I’m so glad you enjoyed this pattern. Thanks so much for your support. Also, if you want a scarf that matches the hat. I have a tutorial for that too. 😇. Have a wonderful evening!
Amanda
Would this hat size be good for adult male?
Just finished this hat, love it and love your tutorial! Looking forward to my next one...
Thank you so much!!! So glad you enjoyed the tutorial!! There are many more, including a matching scarf for this hat! Check it out!!
I love this pattern, I did this really comes out beautiful, thanyou for sharing this pattern.
That sweet! So glad you enjoyed it!!
Im making this hat now.
Love the red with grey pom! Those poms are 6.99 at joann!
Yes! They are pretty good price, but one of these days I’ll buy the roux firm material and teach how to make them yourself!! They are so easy!
They're $3.99 at Hobby Lobby and with the 40% off coupon it brings it down to $2.40 each. They have super cute ones too, white, tan, grey and black and even a pretty multicolored rainbow one! Or like suggested you can buy faux fur fabric from even Walmart to make your own. Many tutorials on youtube on how to make them but you basically cut a circle, sew it with the basic under/over stitch, stuff it with polyfil, then tighten your thread to close the circle which makes a ball 😁
I absolutely love this hat.. thanks for the tutorial. Super easy to follow!
Awe! Awesome!! My pleasure!! Enjoy!😇
Very excellent tutorial. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I’m glad you enjoyed it. 😊
Very nice,thank you.❤
You’re so welcome!!
Loved the pattern. Thank you very much. This was the first pattern of your but am going to try more. It’s snowing in Canada my head will me warm. Thank you.
That’s awesome Kathy!!!! Enjoy it!! ☺️
Fits perfectly, thanks a lot….enjoyed it!
That’s great news!! Thank you for sharing!😇
Hello. Excellent tutorial.
I have a question from anyone or if you have time.
I understand this well, the technical part of creating a cable. The stitches etc.
Moving along very nicely
I am not clear with the what. Not the how.
Please just clarify if you will.
How many rows of front post and cabling rows are required
That’s all I need 🙏🏼
Example at your review- I think end of row 7 23.00 etc.
you wrapped up and then stated now go ahead until you get to 15 crosses ?
This is not being fresh.
But but Go ahead and do What?
Should I do 4 rows of front post. Then one row of cabling.
Until I have 15 cables ?
That’s sll I need clarified.
Re winding doesn’t help me. As I am not trying to learn how to do the stitches.
I am unclear on sequence. I hope my query makes sense
Can you Or anyone please help. Thanks.
The crosses I’m speaking of are the cable rows. You do a cable row, and then you work the rows without cabling for about 4 rows I think, and then you make another cable row. So I thing there are 5 different rows in the body of the hat that are cable rows. It would be best if you had the written pattern to follow because it’s all explained in there.
What a great pattern! Thank you so much.🥰🤩😍
It does my heart good knowing that this video helps so much. Thank you so much for the kind comment! There is always a matching scarf tutorial if you’re interested!
@@FiberTheory I would love to do the scarf. Can you send me the link? I am using a beautiful Luminousa yarn and it loves this pattern!
Great tutorial . I am making lots of hats right now and will reach out for the pattern soon!
That’s awesome!! Glad you like this hat!! It’s so comfy!! If you do need the pattern, you can get it in my Etsy shop. It’s all ready to go. 🤗
Great hat!!! Thank you!!!🎉❤😊
You are so very welcome! Thank you for the wonderful comment. ❤️
Happy crocheting!
Can you make it in a smaller beanie ? because I have small head !
Hello! Yes! Here is the link!! Enjoy!

Hi! I just finished this and the holes between the post double crochet and the 3rd front post double crochet (to make the twist) are really noticeable. Is it because my stitches are too lose? Should I try using a smaller hook next time? Any feedback would be greatly appreciated! I’m still very new to the world of crochet but I’m loving it! Thank you in advance!
Hi there. Starting out it could be an issue for you. I would have to see how you made the cables. So long as the cables are made according to the directions, you should be fine. In any case, there will be spaces. That is how cables work. As long as the gaps aren’t too big you’ll be fine. But gaps on either side of the cable is normal. Does the hat fit correctly? If so, you won’t have to come down or go up in hook size.
I hope this helps. Happy crocheting!
@@FiberTheory thank you so much for taking the time to respond! I sent a picture to a bunch of other crochet people on the internet and they said it looks fine haha. It might have been my tension going from the back post to skipping to 3rd front post. I also may be just too hard on myself haha.
I have just done this pattern💕
I wish I could send the picture to you😃
Thankew
Oh beautiful!! If you want to send a pic, you can send it to fibertheory@yahoo.com. ☺️ Can’t wait to see it!! Have a blessed day!
Great video
Thank you so much! 😇🙏🏼
Thank you 🙏 very much so easy to follow you a long such a awesome teacher
Oh that’s awesome, thank you! So glad you liked the video!! Happy Crocheting!
just finished the result was amazin thnk u so much i luv u ^^
Wonderful!! So glad to hear it! These hats are so super comfy!!
Thank you for your good instructions, easy to follow, I made 2 already. I am left-handed, so it took a few rewinds to get it right. Is there an easy way to view a mirror image? Or could you post a version of your lessons for lefties somehow? Also do you have one on how to make my own pompoms?
Help! I suspect that you found this tutorial in your suggested videos? 😇
Yes, I do have a left handed version of this hat on my channel, as well as others that you might enjoy as well. 😇
Here is the link to that video if you need it. Have a blessed day!!

Also, yes, there is a pompon video as well.

Can you please give ply of yarn and mm for hooks please ... it helps us all who dont use just numbers and/or letters .. thank you
Hi. Sure. Depending on the size hat you want you’ll use either a 5 mm (H) or a 5.5 mm (I). The smaller hook for a smaller gauge, bigger hook for the larger.
The ply I used for this project was a 4. I wish you the best with the pattern. Should you need anymore instruction, please let me know. Have a wonderful day. 😇
Does the Etsy pattern show how to reduce size to fit a child?
Hi there. I have another pattern for this same hat that’s a bit smaller and fits a child, but you can also just change the crochet hook size down to achieve the size you need. If it calls for a size I, go down to an H, and stick with the 4 ply worsted weight yarn the video calls for. I hope this help.
Can you do a video of the matching scarf
Yes, actually I do have a video for that.
ruclips.net/video/dPV-ms0O88o/видео.html
Where do I find the original for a child/teen/small adult please?
Sure. Here’s the link to the other hat. It’s a tad smaller than the one in this video.
Thanks for watching, and Happy Holidays!

I love this design, but 60 rows for the band is still too small for me and I am a petite person! The finished hat fit my 9 yr old granddaughter and not me. How can I make this bigger for me?
Hi! So sorry about that. It could be that you crochet a little tighter. You can do one of two things. Either go up a size on the hook and follow the pattern, or using the hook size in the pattern/video, just add six more rows of sc’s before sewing the ends in the round, and then you should have no trouble. Let me know if this works for you. 😇
@@FiberTheory Thank you! I do crochet pretty tight, my mother used to say my stitches were so tight they looked machined. I did 10 rows of single stitches with an I (5.25mm) hook and it is barely 2 1/2 inches long. I am trying your suggestion now and will let you know!
I love this hat! Thank you so much😄
Thank you Carla!! I’m so glad you are enjoying it! ☺️
Omg. I got it. I finally. I had to just stop and watch. NOT DO
it’s cabling. Then 3 rows then cabling. I’m ready to finish. I hope I am right.
You will work a cable row, and then for three or four rows after that, you just work the stitches as they are. Then you will have another cable row. That is what creates the next twist or cross in the row. It’s the same repeat for 4 or 5 rows. Your best bet would be to get the written pattern where it’s all explained, and I show you how to do the cable rows and then each row after that. The written pattern and the video were made to be used together if you need it.
I make turbins for cancer patients but I'm tired of the old beanie style or anything complicated do you have any ideas?
Hi. Well there are many videos and websites that show how to make cancer patients. I’d look at those. I do know that cancer hats have to be made a certain way, so I would have to look up those specs and design something. I don’t think you can go wrong with a basic single crochet or half double crochet beanie though.
I wish you the best!
Can you do the matching scarf so we can do that
Good morning. Yes. I already have a scarf tutorial for you in my channel. Here’s the link.
ruclips.net/video/dPV-ms0O88o/видео.html
i just discovered ur channel n i m very happy ...comin from the original video to make a larger one xD BUT 60 is still small i need 70 at least it btwn 70 /76 do u think multiples of 10 would work? for exmple if i make 70 is it gonna be fine for the body? hope to get a quick answer i m making it right now thnk u in advance
Hi there. Your message was dropped in my spam folder for some reason! I'm so glad I checked it! Really, what I would do is play around with the hook sizes at this point. I think if you went up to a size J hook, you would probably be fine. Your gauge would change and you wouldn't have to worry about the math. If the math is really important.. you would need to make sure that your band 72 rows.. and then make sure to add 12 extra dc's into the first row of the body. Then you will have the right amount of stitches to make your cables come out correctly. Good luck!
How do you increase the number of rows? Is there a specification that it needs to be in 6 or 12? :)
Saw that you said that it’s possible to increase to 12 rows! And add 12 more D’C in the first row. Does the increase in every 10 stitches still apply
Hi! Yes.. just make the band the size you need and then in the body, make sure you have multiples of 6. Your cables have 4 stitches and there are 2 bpdc’s between a cable. You can make it slouchy as you want it by increasing my 6 stitches in the body... as long as you follow the basic pattern, you will be fine.
Wuau¡!..it's so pretty..tkanks for share..🤗🤗🤗😍😍😍
Glad you like it!!! Thanks for watching!
Hi i would like this tipe but in beret thank you is beautiful
I will see what I can do. 😇
Beautiful hat, good clear directions but very poor choice of yarn color -,white yarn on a whit back ‘‘tis very hard to see
Thank you, and I’m so very sorry. I have gotten better at using better color yarns for tutorials. I’m glad you enjoyed the directions. Blessings!
@@FiberTheory great directions - had no problems following them at all. I am sure there is lots to learn to do these type of teaching videos. Thanks so very much.
what are the finished measurements please?
Hi thank you for your question! This hat fits heads 22-25 inches around. The finished hat, if measured across, should measure about 18”. It will of course determine how you crochet. Right crocheters will have a smaller hat, loose crocheters will have a bigger hat. It’s best to make sure your band measures 18” across before you sew it up for this hat. If you need a smaller version, I also have this video. I hope this helped answer your question.
ruclips.net/video/k26NU6g4Tt4/видео.html
Très joli !
How do I send pictures
I can’t wait to see pics!!! You can send them
To my email address at fibertheory@yahoo.com. ☺️
Its too fast n I need tutorial for this hat
Thank u
Hi. I’m sorry that the video was too fast for you. There is a written pattern that goes with the video. There should be an iCard at the beginning of the video with the Etsy link. I hope this helps. Have a great day.
@@FiberTheory thank you
)
going too fast!!!
Hi. Maybe this version will be easier. It’s for a bit smaller hat.

I changed the playback speed to 0.5. It helped a little bit.
