Do you have a way of making this for newborns with larger than 17" head circumferences? My boys were 22 and 22.5 inches...

[@sunkistscorpio]

How can I make a preemie size with this pattern?

[@fantasc.5818]

Absolute beginner, never touched a crochet hook before- and I made two of these! Super easy to follow!

[@crochetdreamz]

Glad it was helpful!

[@stephanieboss-l3d]

I am so grateful that you walked through it step by step and were so thorough. I have never made anything like this before. I am new to crocheting so things are still hard for me, but I actually completed the hat. I am going to be a grandma for the fist time and want to make her a little hat ❤

[@crochetdreamz]

Glad it was helpful and congrats to the grandma! I recently had a grand niece and cannot stop watching her videos and pictures because she lives far away. Babies are so adorable.

[@CallThataaComeback]

Congratulations ❤

Finally! Someone normalizes using (and showing how to use) stitch markers- thank you! It may have seemed repetitive to keep counting and moving the markers, but it really helped! Great tutorial

[@crochetdreamz]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lindaw505]

I agree @lindsayy zubay I am a big fan of markers, and use them a lot. If they help you keep track of where you are, and what you are doing, they are a great tool 😊

[@liliasawyer7145]

Yes!!!! 😂

[@Averybean98]

@@simplyroseina1330no one explains how to use them or where to count from.

Use a Bobby pin! It stays put and you don’t have to keep unclipping it 💪🏾

Appreciate how your video starts immediately on how to crochet the project with easy to follow instructions. So many others use up so much time with nonsense that I quit watching before they start Thank you

I’m a beginner, I’ve only ever made blankets so I thought I’d try one of these for our family member who’s having a baby in a few days and I’m amazed at how simple this was! I didn’t make the ears but I plan to for my next project. Thank you for such a simple and easy to follow tutorial, I love it!

This is cute. Such a soothing voice, I could fall asleep. haha

[@cynthiaventura360]

Thank you for showing glue to sew in the tags. I did do this with a shawl I made for a friend, it looked nice but I was not too sure if it was ok since I have never seen someone show how it’s done ! I really appreciate you for everything you do and thoroughly explaining everything! Thank you 🙏 kindly my dear friend!

[@crochetdreamz]

You are so welcome!

[@Chroma-w17]

My yarn was a bit smaller so my hat came out too small the first time, so I tried again with 12 sc in the magic ring (instead of 8 like the video) and then followed the video and it came out great! Thank you!

[@crochetdreamz]

Wonderful!

[@keswhit3089]

How much smaller was your yarn I’m using velvet bulky 5 yarn and wanted to make sure yours would be the same as mine!

[@Bubby448]

I’m glad I saw your comment. My yarn is much thinner. Thank you

[@staecygonzalez3432]

I’m using a medium 4 yarn so it’s coming out tiny. Did you use the 12 sc instead of the 8sc for a child’s beanie? I’m making this one for a 1 month old baby so I just want to make sure it won’t turn out too big if I do the 12sc

[@shea5542]

Thank you! That helps for those of us using smaller

[@Bargan67]

I wish there were videos with the different sizes although I know that would take too much time. I am such a visual learner. Tried reading through the steps on the blog and it was just too overwhelming.

I would love to make one for my older grandchildren but I have no idea how to enlarge it. Would you consider making a pattern or video for toddler and then older children?

[@crochetdreamz]

I have been getting a lot of requests for bigger sizes. I will try to add bigger sizes to my free written pattern whenever I find time.

I was panicking because my friend is about to have her first baby and I really really wanted to make her something but I had tried some kits and beginner instructions online and it went terribly every time. However, other than using a much thicker yarn and ending up with a slightly comically large hat (I’m going to make another and give her both), I sat down and made an entire hat the day before I saw her. Thank you so much, this was so simple and clear to follow and now I’m so excited to try other crocheting projects. My only question is how do you stop the yarn unwinding itself from the trimmed parts when it’s fluffy yarn?

[@crochetdreamz]

You can go back and forth 3 times to securely weave in the ends.

I love how you ended the end of the rim of the heart without a knot. It looks great and Durant have that bump it would create with a bulky yarn so it Doesn’t look awkward or bother the child wearing this. Just want to know if you have done this enough times and know if it doesn’t come undone in the future! Just curious since I’m fairly new to crochet and have never done a project without making a knot to secure the end of the project? Thanks 🙏 in advance sweet heart!
