I have been crocheting for 60 years, yes, I am telling my age, this is the first and most thorough explanation of crochet I have ever seen. This is a fabulous tutorial. Thank you!! New subscriber here.
❤❤I started when I was little. Like 10 as a way to involve myself with my mom and gran. That was 29 years ago now and over the years I've gone for long periods doing it and long not so alot of the cooler patterns and stitch work are gone from memory....for me at least this isn't like the "riding a bike" joke. IDK why but it's not. Sometimes it's a GOOD IDEA to sit down and watch a tutorial...yes even the basic of stitches can be forgotten nevermind the more difficult one!! 😂 I find videos help. Especially if you learn through watching some else. All I need to do is gather my supplies and sit down. I pause, rewind, slow the video ...I always get confused with the pattern direction because of the abbreviations and the directions may as well be in a dead language in my case. Whatever it takes. So THANK you to all you people patient enough to teach slackers like me. PS IF ANYONE ELSE HAS AN ISSUE WITH LEARNING THE ABBREVIATIONS LIKE ME IS THERE A WAY TO MAKE IT EASIER TO LEARN? I use a lot of time relearning stuff and I'm sure there's a trick to it. Lol
Finally !!!! Someone who actually shows us novice crochet-ers how to weave in the ends rather than just saying “ok weave in the ends” like we know what to do 😅
I'm a very experienced crocheter and I usually hate watching crochet videos (too slow for my needs), but there's something about your voice, your pace, your close up on the work that I found compelling! I listened to the whole thing. And I'm gonna make this hat today! Thanks!
Thank you for a really detailed video. This is a pattern I would not have attempted without this excellent tutorial. I like the idea of making a hat in about an hour or so!
I have crocheted for many year. Your video and demonstrations are excellent. It would be very helpful to a beginner and I am enjoying your technique and explanations. Thank you.
Thank you so much! I have watch so many tutorials stating easy beginner and i found they either went to fast or didnt explain fully. Then i came across your video and BINGO! finally someone who took the time to explain everything fully.😊
This is the best teacher I have ever seen bar my mom, but not everyone has access to my mom. She explains everything so clearly, giving the reasons for everything. I am planning on showing this to my granddaughters
@@sandrastewart5089 😊Great news for me because I'm new to the craft (at age 60😉) so really need someone detailed & slower paced. Thanks for letting me know I can stop the search 🧶💝
I normally find a video pattern and automatically check for a written version. I went to the pattern for this and I am amazed at how well written it is! Best written pattern I have come across!
Just came across your channel and I so glad. I've been crocheting for many years but this is the first time I've found someone who explains every minute detail. I like the effortless way you went into the decrease rows while still maintaining the pattern. This pattern is ideal for me as I need a hat in a hurry - winter is nigh and my existing hat looks worse for wear. So a big thank you from me.
Excellent video detailing your method to crochet this fantastic hat! Anyone should be able to follow along due to your thorough description and up close video. Thank you!
I know this video is 2 years old but it popped up on my timeline today and I’m so glad it did. Not only is this a great tutorial, but it also includes wonderful tips and tricks. My slip stitches are super tight (I’m a tense crocheter LOL) and this explained why they’re tight and how to adjust/accommodate that. Thank you!!!
I've made many beanies over the years and this is by far my favorite hat! I'm so glad I found this video in RUclips! The instructor makes it so easy to follow!!!
I am not one to be able to read patterns but after watching and listening, I’ve learned so much about stitch count. Thank you so much for this easy pattern!
As a fellow-crocheter, I love the small notes or tips you have! The things I had to learn from experience, you are helping beginners see at the start and I LOVE IT!! Thank you for a beautiful and fun pattern ♥️
What a terrific instructional video. You are a wonderful teacher and I learned so much by the repetition, which I need - since I have not crochet in years. The design of the hat is unusual and very attractive. I really appreciate it. You lifted my spirits! Thank you so much!!
I haven't crocheted anything in years but I made this hat today. I am so happy with the way it turned out! It is very discouraging when the pattern doesn't fit but this was perfect! I will definitely be making more. Thank you for sharing.
Attempting to make this Beautiful Hat at the moment. The Pretty Slip Stitch Brim took me a few hours to get done. So, finally I'm about to start working the pattern row. Thank you for sharing your Lovely Design.
You are such a great teacher! Thank you so much for this video. I aways make hats top-down in the round because it's easier for me, but I think I can do this way now. Thanks again
My first time ever beanie that succeed. I somehow always failed making a beanie and this is the first time I had it right. Instructions easy to understand, clear placement of hook and totally easy and beautiful pattern. Thank you and subscribed.
One of the best videos i ever seen. Perfect speed, amazing visual and very easy to understand, especially for a beginner. I’m definitely subscribing to her channel.
You're just the best! This worked like a dream for my nieces and nephews! I can always count on you for reliable directions and spot on results! Thank you!
I just made this hat and I’m here to tell you, the pattern and the video are so good and easy to understand! I struggled with the band for a bit and my husband suggested I use a different crochet needle, it was just the ticket! Thank you for sharing this!
I have been looking for an easier beanie hat and this is it. I love this pattern and doesn’t seem to take very long. Thank you so much for sharing. Your tutorial is wonderful. I’m going to get some chunky yarn tomorrow and start this beanie hat. 💜❤️🧶🧶gayle
Great pattern and superb instructions. Loved the ribbing technique. Stopped making hats because they weren't stretchy and lost their shape..kudos to you. Well done!
I may have to pick up my crochet hook again. I’m a knitter and always found counting stitches hard and always ended up with mystery stitches🤣. You’re a great teacher!
I just made this cute little hat for a toddler using your hat measurement guide. I used Yarn Bee Forever Plush. It's so soft and adorable!! Thank you so much for sharing this. I will be making more of these for sure!
I would like to thank you for your wonderful and clear tutorial. I was able to follow along and actually finished a hat for the first time. It's not perfect, but I love how it looks.😊
This is my first time watching one of your tutorials and I love the way you teach. I just finished the beanie and I’m very happy with the results. Thank you for all your work. Cheers 🥂 from Montréal.
Wonderful tutorial! I have been knitting since I was a kid, like 5 years old, and started crocheting later on in life.I like it because it's much faster than knitting, honestly.
I’m extremely pleased with the way my hat turned out! I’m getting ready to make a second one! I’m sure I’ll be making many! Thanks for an amazing tutorial! I’ve shared this with my 4500+ subscribers!
I love this! You're easy to follow, easy to understand & I wanted to tell you how much I appreciate you spending time & energy making this tutorial. 🫶🏼
Thank you for explaining, and teaching, so I can understand. You’re a wonderful teacher, and I am looking forward to following, and learning more from you.
Made this for a friend and for the first time I’ve made something that looks like a hat and fits like a hat! Added an extra row of treble space double so she has space to fold up the bottom. Love it. Thank you.
Thank you for being so easy to follow. Your directions are clear, and easy to see. I can't wait to try one of these hats. Thank you also for having the camera close enough to see the stitches you make. It makes it much easier for people like me with blurry vision. ❤️❤️❤️
I really liked this video and pattern. I have been looking for a more textured pattern that wasn't too difficult. This one is perfect .👌 Thanks for the great tutorial,
Love, love, love this stitch pattern & its sooo easy! I crochet winter hats/beanies for my local pantry (they have clothes too) & I've made 3 of these hats already & am working on a 4th. Using a lighter weight yarn - #4 - but the pattern still looks great. Thanx so much for your clear instructional videos💕💕
Also....everyone crochets differently so I found placing the sc stitches in the ridges instead of the valleys worked better for me. And I've made this hat a different sizes just by adding or subtracting the rows of ribbing. Just a reeeeally great stitch. So versatile.💕💕
Nice hat and I'll make one as I have this yarn. With that said I recommend using a button on the underside and not the elastic due to it's smoothness and it will work it's way loose, been there done that. Great tutorial though very detailed and clear to see. Thank you
Thank you for this wonderful fast pattern. Exactly what I needed. Your video tutorial is life-saving for my holiday gift-giving plans. Thank you. I appreciate you!
It's a beautiful hat! Thanks for sharing. I loved the color and your instructions. I will try it tomorrow. Cannot wait. God bless you for sharing your talent with us beginners.
THANK YOU! I’ve been trying to come up with a way to do the base and I always end up tired and frustrated. I’m so glad I found this one. I’ll be using it as cuffs for sweaters and mittens as well. Again, THANK YOU!

I do that sometimes too, lol!
Lmao!! Seriously
I consider myself an expert crochet person but your comment made me laugh out loud🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂. You were absolutely right😅😂
You fold it in
Coz it’s so damn complicated ya know 🤷🏼♀️
I have followed this crafter before using a couple of her tutorials. She is consistent and is a very good and clear teacher.
Thank you for your kind words!
Wonderful teacher! I love that she has the camera close enough to see what stich she's working in. Nice, straightforward in structions.
Glad it was helpful!
To treba prevesti na hrvAtski jezik!!!!
A very good teaching video rare to find. Your voice is very soothing. I will definitely going to be a regular visitor.

Thanks and welcome
The ribbing alone is so nice! I can imagine that it would make a really nice headband, too!
Glad you like it.
