Finally! Videos that give the real deal - instructions that are easy and that work up into beanies for all sizes. Thank you! I recently started crocheting for a local charity and have followed video after video and undone so many beanies and partial beanies that weren’t working out. I’m on a roll now, thanks to you, and enjoying every moment! Your beanies will keep lots of little, and bigger, heads toasty and happy here in Delaware. 🤗💕☃️

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Amazing! That's wonderful!

[@fros7ed]

I was always intimidated by decrease and increase, but your video is sooo easy to follow. I feel quite proficient. Thank you

[@Luxyglamlife]

This is my 2nd hat. I did 0-6 months and now I want to do 6-12. I've been crocheting for 1 month now and your hat is the easiest to follow. Thank you so much!

[@laurahughes1987]

This is a brilliant video no messing about straight to the pattern easy to understand and no waffling..just pure delight in making this and such a lovely voice. Straight to the point..perfect!! Definately checking all these out...thank you so much

[@brendanunez8979]

I've been crocheting for about a month now this is my first baby beanie your tutorials are the easiest to follow that I have found thank you

[@katnordstrom6104]

I've used your hat patterns many times before, and I love them. Thank you so much!

[@elizabethwhittaker9246]

I have never crocheted before EVER. I watched your easy, clear view and well instructed video and have managed to make a no mistakes, perfect sized, beautiful looking beanie first time. I finished it in no time. Thank you

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Elizabeth whittaker That is awesome!! I am so happy you managed to follow along!!

[@carylmccarley6765]

I just finished the 6- 12 months beanie and it came out perfectly. Thank you much for all your beanie tutorials. You explain everything clearly to understand for beginners like me and make it simple to make. My baby beanie is for my unborn grand daughter. And I'm gonna make a matching beanie for my daughter with your adult beanie tutorials. Ty again and hope to learn more crochet with your tutorials in the future Take Care.

[@natashadennis5514]

You explain things so well! I've watched many videos on here for beginners and whilst I've learnt (and practising) the basic stitches, you really make it easy and simple to follow. You've mentioned a lot of little tips and the going by the length in inches is so much better to understand. I'm soooo glad I found your videos. Now I'm off to delete the others and practise my hat from this tutorial!

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

natasha dennis That is so kind of you to say! I'm so happy you managed to follow along :D

[@odessacohen3508]

Thanks, your instructions are very easy to follow...thanks for sharing your talents.

[@maureenwatt7627]

Very easy video showing how to crochet a beanie hat for ages newborn to toddler! Thanks!

[@ncv1501]

Love your tutorials. Thank you. This tutorial can be categorized as made in one hour and a half. And you can use as a base and change colors add different stitches to give a whole new look.

[@berthabarbour1842]

Happy Berry: I lu ur tutorials. U r so calm, cool, patient, thorough in xplaining yur every st. U don't rush to finish. And leave me behind confused. You also gives choices to dressup the different size hats in different colors one wishes. Thank you HB. 🤗🤗

[@tinagazo7101]

I cannot thank you enough for simplifying the crochet of a beanie. What I find intriguing is that you cater for all sizes. Yippee I am off to get started on my first one

[@tinagazo7101]

I usually start my hats from the brim and work towards the middle which means I will have to take measurements before I get started. You have spared me the trouble of having to do that. Thank you

[@PGF1953]

Thank you so much for the great tutorial! I managed to make the two sizes for the infant and then from 6 to 12 and I am giving them to a friend for her grandchild. I made them and everyone loved them! They were easy but your teaching made it even easier! Thanks again!

[@62jenjen]

I just want to let you know your the only person that I have found on you tube that explains everything including when you get to the end of the round you show us exactly where to put the hook in the chain I only will watch your you tubs.

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Jennifer McPheeters Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm so happy you enjoy my tutorials.

[@nancymasse2965]

[@susytae100]

I made this yesterday and it came out amazing! Super simple instructions and easy to follow. I used multi-coloured yard for the hat and then used a solid colour for the last round (matched the pompom on top!) Thanks!

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Sue D Sounds great! I'm so glad you enjoyed making this beanie.

[@audriareinoehl9504]

I love these videos. They are so helpful especially since you measure the hat. Sometimes I crochet too tight which makes the hats too small but since you add the measurements it really helps

[@jennyrose6289]

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Debbie Geiger Sounds beautiful! I love the pom pom idea :)

[@annelacourn2387]

The best video on making a baby cap on the internet!! Thank you so much. I have a question- if you want to use a finer yarn, is the count the same? Keep up the great work- you have no idea how much it’s appreciated!!!🌺

[@heatherpowers3665]

I ended up going down a yarn weight(4) for this pattern to work with my gauge. Love how thorough you are!

[@ronamillbane5804]

Your tutorial is so amazing. Thank you so much!!

[@melissamorwood1527]

great video to follow but if you don't want a seam to show don't do the chain two past the increase rows just go around til you get right length then i do one single crochet around the edge.

[@mariemccoubrey7463]

Love your video so easy to make. Thank you. X☺️👍

[@marianne49]

lovely video-great easy instructions--and i love your voice!

[@giselanery726]

Thank you!

[@jessb6906]

You're video is very helpful thank you..

[@sistavee51]

Hi I am using worsted weight # 4 what needle size would i use

[@nancygreen1768]

Very nice video, so far. I'm watching it to refresh my memory on how to crochet, now that I have acquired a baby granddaughter!!! I still have my old metal hooks, but am thinking that maybe I need some new ones. Does anyone have any particular favorites?

[@az.shelly]

+nancy green Hello, I started crocheting again after quite a few years. I purchased a really nice and cute set of hooks called ergonomic crochet hooks with grips on Amazon. I believe it has 9 hooks with grips on the ends. It comes in a cute roll up fabric pouch too! There were a few other items included and it's only 10.99! I love it. Congrats on the new baby!!!

[@BlackandGoldTA]

so to increase, i would just an another single dc before another double dc? Like 2 dc in one, then s dc, s dc, sdc, sdc.? and just keep adding? Is that the way it works?

[@iamoddlyfnunique]

it would really help a lot more if you can post the pattern in the video description. I'm more of a pattern reader, but I do appreciate the video I need to be able to watch and catch on.

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

+Amirah Perkins Written pattern links in the description and on the video itself. :)

[@iamoddlyfnunique]

+HappyBerry Crochet Humbly I thank you, I didn't even notice it was posted. I was so focused on listening so I could write it down for myself. Thank you.

[@daileighnovember]

[@crankycrocheter2054]

I'm 23. According to your pattern sizes, I wear a 12 Month to 3 year old hat. 😛

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Sizes are just based on averages, everyone is different :)

[@melissanewberry9190]

Are you counting the chain 2 as one of the 48 stitches or no? Thanks.

[@soeraidabachnoe4559]

Thank u so much for sharing this....keep posting more videos

[@anngeorge3732]

Hiiii what do we do with the scrap yarn and the tail

[@wiseblissnp]

Thanks great video

[@JennaAdler-Gordon]

I am following your video and my beanie is very loose and not "tight" like yours . What might I have done wrong?

[@perry-bettyperry6422]

Can I get the pattern for the beanie pls!! I enjoy the Video, very good teacher!! I need to make my new Granddaughter that Thank u!!

[@PattyJBrush]

Hi I’m Patty Brush I’m a beginner and I’ve been crocheting the baby 0 to 6 months and I don’t understand what I’m find wrong. I watched and watched my hat is not going up like it supposed to do. I’ve been crocheting 2 times at the start of each roll and then continue going around and I’ve got 9 rolls and it is flat. It looks like a flying saucer instead of a baby hat.😢😢😢😢😂😂😂😂

[@rachaelgregory7046]

I made the 6-12 month beanie yesterday. I love it, first hat I've made. Don't suppose you have a link for same age mittens? Thankyou x

[@aurielle7766]

I ended up with 15 rounds to get the length ✨

[@borislava41]

Thank u so much! :) I love your chanel !

[@frootloop3605]

used this tutorial double crochet by double crochet. I'm using bulky 5 yarn and J/10-5.75MM crochet hook. i don't see how this is supposed to fit my 13month old when it swallows my 3 year old's head and fits me. But i got me a nice new hat! :) i just need one for my son now.

[@frootloop3605]

my problem isn't the length, it's how loose the hat is. I'm thinking if i didn't do an extra round or 2 that it would fit snugly like i want instead of loose.

[@frootloop3605]

i do appreciate the video and the effort put into making it.

[@nishinewchannel-uk5gq]

Can you tell me how much knitting row this flat circle ?

[@jenniferramos1382]

ama try to do this WISH ME LUCKKK

[@zaarawaa]

Jennifer Ramos good luck😂😊👍

[@swathibhaskaran3326]

I exactly followed ur steps... but by the end the length and circumference of my work differs.... i got 5 inc instead of 6.5... can u tell me how to correct it.

[@debils4546]

Love, love your videos! Do you have a video on how to put the edging on?

[@HappyBerryCrochet]

Debbie Smitley Thank you for your kind feedback, but I don't have a tutorial for edging at the moment, so sorry.

[@chandralekhapv8426]

great video I made the beanie but it doesn't fit. It is small. what changes for a thin yarn?

[@baxtar01]

hello, i have a problem when i crochet these beanies. my seem never stays straight. it tends to stray over to the right. i follow your instructions to the letter and it still strays. i've tried staggering the last/first stitch but i dont like the look of it. does anyone else have this problem? luv your tutorials though.

[@berthabarbour1842]

Because amurgurmy works in circles., the beanie or hat I work on. the seam is working with your stitch count and will move to the right at the end of each row. Someone else can explain it better.

[@leeritz9187]

I was just wondering what to do with the string at the top of the Hat?? I cannot figure it out and I have not seen her do anything with it but it disappeared and I am confused what to do with it 😕

[@CharlotteNeedsCoffee]

Stuck on row 4. Does it matter if the 2dc doesn't lines up with the 3 row?? I don't know why mine isn't lining up. I did the first 3 rows to the letter. Thanks

[@crumblingphilosophy9323]

2:38 3:00

[@mujer_AnaNikka]

Can someone please tell me the length of the hat from its crown?

[@mellowmushroom05]

I used a thinner thread and a thinner hook.... Should I make any changes in the beginning part?

[@paulabrooks424]

I used a bulky yarn f or my grandchild 6 months old. It was too big. I used 5 mm hook . Do you know what could be wrong?
