Im 64 years old and so impressed with how well you presented your tutorial. I just finished MINE and am going to crochet a few as gifts to my local pet adoption center for everyone who adopts a cat. Thank you young lady for your thoughtfulness. It makes me so happy to see some young people actually doing something constructive instead of on those phones😟
I KNOW every video i saw for beginners they would go so fast but she did it step by step if you didnt even know what half the stuff is ITS SO CUTE TOO!!! :D
just a note to viewers, i used a much smaller gauge of yarn and hook, so I ended up having a chain of 43, and had 42 rows. I just kept doing rows until I thought I was close, then would stretch it to fit my head and obviously added more rows as needed. everyone will be different though. awesome hat by the way. my bestie and I turned ours into unicorn hats, and just made a cute horn that we attached later. thank you for the tutorial!

@@novaholmbeck8159 you probably had a thinner yarn than the one in the video therefore you needed to make more stitches until you had a length of about 11 inches to begin
Loved it! I made it for my niece in college and now my grandbaby who's in the 5th grade wants want also. I also added some white in the middle of the ears and around the bottom of the hat! It turned out fabulous! All praises to God!
So easy I love it and doesn’t take super long. I thought I was going to have to make ears and I was confused why you didn’t decrease but it all made sense at the end wow I love it
its not veronicas fault but i just messed up and im starting all freaking over and i thought i was doing it wrong but then i thought i was doing it right, watched it over and realized i was doing it wrong...........SO SAD :(

Thank you so much for making this so easy to follow. It was my first time ever chrocheting, and it turned out so well. I made it for my friend and I think she will love it!
Just finished my hat. It was really quick and fun to make! Took me about 2 hours working off and on. Tutorial was easy to follow. I should have made the hat a shorter than 11 inches as I feel it would have been more flattering on me with a smaller brim, but that's all personal preference. Because it's such an easy hat, I can remake it to my liking this time!
You're just like me. I never pull yarn from the middle of the skein because I find it gets more tangled. I like pulling it from the outside because it doesn't tangle as much.
I tried making a black color one and I love it! It turned out a little messy but I managed to fix it, thanks for the tutorial!! You made it so easy to learn!!
I loved this tutorial, thank you so much for posting it! ♥️ I actually made this hat, but with a circular loom (not sure if that’s the actual name or not... sorry 😆). It turned out AMAZING! I made it for my sister and she LOVED it. Again, thank you so much! Keep up the great work and content! ~Izzy
I can't always watch/listen to a video when I am crocheting, so I like to have a written pattern when I am crocheting. Since it wasn't on your blog, I went ahead and typed it up and I figured, since I went through all the effort, maybe you or someone else could use this too. Also, I corrected some terminology that was incorrect. Feel free to copy and paste it to your blog, but please don't remove my credit if you do. Anyways, here you go, hope it helps someone; Crochet Cat Ear Hat Pattern and video by Veronica Marie Written up by Amber Plebanek ((Written in US/Canadian Terms)) Abbreviations: BEG - Begin/start CH - Chain HDC - Half Double Crochet BLO - Back Loop Only REP - Repeat CONT - Continue RND - Round SC - Single Crochet SL ST - Slip Stitch ST - Stitch ( ) - How many stitches you should have Supplies: Super Bulky Yarn (Size 6 US) OR 4 strands of worsted (Size 4 US) 10.00MM (N15 US) Hook Yarn/Darning Needle Measuring Tape or a ruler Hat: BEG: Ch until you get to about 11” long (count your chain to keep track of how many stitches each row should be. This pattern used 22) This is your foundation chain. ROW 1: Ch 2, then hdc into the 4th ch from the hook. This will be the first two st of the row. Cont until you reach the end. Count to double check you have 22 st, including the ch 2. (22) ROW 2: Turn, ch 2 and hdc into the blo and cont until end. (22) ROWS 3 - 16: Rep row 2 for 14 more rows or until it wraps around your head. (Add as many rows as needed. Remember that half double crochet stitches stretch, so if you want a tighter fit, do less than 16 rows. If you want a looser fit, add one or two rows.) (22) Connecting: Once you are happy with the amount of rows, fold the work in half so that the foundation ch is laying on top of the last row with your hook to the right. Insert your hook into the first st on the foundation ch. We are going to st the first and last rows together using sl st. Sl st all the way to the end. (Count how many st you get, in case you want to add a brim/border) Closing the top: We are now going to sl st into the side of the rows to close the top of the hat. This isn’t an exact science. The stitches wont line up exactly, so you will have to kind of guess where to put stitches. The goal is to make this as straight and flat as we can. If it is wavy, then you have added too many stitches and need to pull some of them out where is it getting wavy. If it getting too scrunched up, then you too few stitches and you need to pull them out and add one or two more where it was bunching up. Go slowly and really watch the stitches and you will be able to tell what is going on. Once happy, cut and tie off the end and sew the ends in. Turn the hat inside out, making sure to really pop out the corners, as they will become the cat ears. Making the Ears: Taking a string of yarn (About 12”) and your darning needle, Starting on the right side about ¼ - ⅓ of the way down from the top, leave about a 1” - 2” long tale and sew diagonally towards the top, about ¼ - ⅓ from the right side. Make sure to leave a decent tale. Rep but start from the top about ¼ - ⅓ from the left side and sew diagonally towards ¼ - ⅓ from the top on the left side, making sure to leave long enough tails. Gently tug on the ends of each string to cinch the top and sides until you are happy with the shape of the ears. If you aren’t liking the way they are coming out, pull the string out completely and start that side over again until you are happy with them. When you are satisfied, using your darning needle, poke the tails of the strings through to the inside of the hat. Flip the hat inside out again and tie the ends of the strings for each ear together to secure the shape of the ears. (Make sure not to tie the strings from opposite ears together.) When secured, trim ends or weave them in to hide them. Flip the hat inside out one last time and adjust the ears. OPTIONAL: (Some suggestions from Amber) You can add a brim or border to the bottom of the hat by sc around the other side of the rows. Remember, this isn’t a set number of st. If you counted your st when closing off the top, you should be able to double that number and get a rough estimate as to how many st you should have. If it’s wavy, you have too many st, if it’s bunchy, you have too few. You can leave it at just that one rnd of sc if you would like. It gives it a nice finished edge. Or you can keep adding rnds and build out a brim. If you use only sc, they don’t stretch like hdc do, and might end up being tighter than you expected. I recommend using hdc into the blo like you did for the hat. It will have the same stretchiness to it and will have horizontal ribbing instead of vertical. If you are unfamiliar with working in rounds, search youtube, there are plenty of people who explain how to do it. Make your brim as long as you wish.
For a warmer hat, sew on a fleece liner. A super cute pattern or solid could really accent your yarn and keep your noggin nice and toasty. Look up joyofmotioncrochet-dot-com for a tutorial of how to sew a lining into your hat.
This video is really helpful ♡ Im not very experience in crocheting but this video is really clear and easy to follow. Manage to do my own cat ear beanie thanks to your help! :)
Great Tutorial, made this hat as a present :) Mines gotten a bit heavy probably because my stitches were a little tight and I had to do more rows but it feels quite comfy :)
all this time and i have been doing the foundation stitch wrong, go through the single top loop not the two bottom loops. never too old or set in ones ways to re learn the basics. thanks for that.
I'm totally gonna do this one day once i find the materials I need. Cuz i live here in the middle east and it's hard for me to find these simple materials lol
Hi. I just want to know if I could do the same thing with 2 needles. I don’t know how to crochet and even though I want to lean I just started a hat and then I watch your tutorial and wonder if I could do the same ears. Thanks.
Loveeee it:) I have a question. The 1st row of the 21 stiches, you went through the middle, the 2nd row, u went through the back. Do you keep repeating middle back middle back until the desire number of rows?
Nice hat 😊 I have tried to crochet once but it turns out really small although i crocheted 24 stitches..or maybe i started sewing from the wrong side .. So how are we work? Lengthwise??or width? And thank you 😘

I was watching this to learn to make the ears. I never would've guessed the whole hat is just a mock ribbing rectangle, that's crazy! And thanks! ☺️

You could use ribbons for the ears and make a bow on the outside
This tutorial is awesome 😍 keep it up
Awesome easy video!
Thank you so much for your good work
Hi. I just want to know if I could do the same thing with 2 needles. I don’t know how to crochet and even though I want to lean I just started a hat and then I watch your tutorial and wonder if I could do the same ears. Thanks.
thanks to you i have an awesome hat now!
Omg so cute can’t wait to try!
Loveeee it:) I have a question. The 1st row of the 21 stiches, you went through the middle, the 2nd row, u went through the back. Do you keep repeating middle back middle back until the desire number of rows?
what a coincidence I have the same brand yarn and color and the same hook LOL
Jin Ate All The Suga Kookies me too
Me too lol
OMG ARMYYYYYY
Love your username!
Oh! q pena en español 😭😭😭😭
Nice hat 😊
I have tried to crochet once but it turns out really small although i crocheted 24 stitches..or maybe i started sewing from the wrong side ..
So how are we work?
Lengthwise??or width?
And thank you 😘
Hey Veronica! I have a question- can I use jumbo yarn?? Or would it be too thick-
Very well done thanks so much for sharing
Esta muy lindo, gracias, lo voy hacer para unas nenas,ojalá y me quede igual de bonito que el tuyo.
How much yarn do you need for each hat? Does each skein make one hat?
I love this, you did a great tutorial :)
Can you please do more videos crocheting beanies/hat using this size yarn? Please and thank you!
I do have a hat pattern that I'm planning to make a video on in the fall. I'll make sure that that's one of my first fall videos :)
So cute😊
What was the length when you finished the row of 16. Can you help with the size using a 4 yarn gauge. Thanks Great video.
Great pattern 👍. Thank you so much.
You're just like me. I hate pulling the yarn from the center because I find that it gets more tangled that way. I knit. I know how to crochet but I'm not as good at it as I am at knitting.
If 11 inches is for an adult how long does it have to be for a toddler?
Simple and amazing 👌
Muito Obrigada!!! Adorei suas explicações!!! Parabéns!!! Bjs
thank you so much for this amazing tutorial
hi! adorei como você ensina, muito fácil, mesmo não entendendo muito bem o inglês da pra fazer sem dúvidas 😘😘
