[@mizzpurdy4018]

Love the videos, I’m so mad I’m just now stumbling upon your channel, great content, I love seeing men who crochet, awesome work 🙏👍🏾

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you very much for the kind words and for finding my channel. I hope you continue to enjoy the videos 🙏🏾🙂

[@d.w.9173]

I'm glad I lucked up and found you. Very good teacher. I tie my strings and leave a string as a tag just like you do when I''m making hats! Love this hat!

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you. I’m happy to hear that my style of teaching is effective. Thanks for letting me know! And great minds, right?😉😂

[@Louise-lg3wt]

Beautiful pattern and very easy to follow, clear instructions. Thank you. Great channel!

Been wanting to make a tam for quite some time now;best tutorial I've found so far. Thanks heaps !

[@AtreyuCrochet]

You are so welcome!! Thanks for letting me know 🙂🙏🏾

[@lindaoharris]

What I really like about your site is that you get really close to the work so you can really see where you’re supposed to putting the hook. I’m a beginner and sometimes the patterns or so confusing because I can’t see where they’re actually putting the hook. So I think you very much for that hugs

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Oh you’re very welcome! Yes, I just try imagine the things that I wanted to see when I was learning. I’m glad the videos are effective. Thanks for letting me know 🙂🙏🏾

[@nicolehighvibes]

This tutorial was so fun! I did my first tam and it was my first time crocheting 🧶! You made it easy for me to understand. I first watched your other videos and practiced the basics like making chains,slip knots and single and double stitching. I can’t wait to make more!

[@AtreyuCrochet]

I'm happy you enjoyed the tutorial! You should have fun when crocheting, you know? I'm glad the other videos were helpful too. It doesn't seem like those videos get too much traction but I'm glad they were there for you. Happy crocheting!

[@MsAuraMatic]

Nice tutorial. You are a great teacher. I heard the Canadian Crocheter mention you and I came over.

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you very much! I was wondering where everyone was coming from. I'll definitely have to thank her. Thanks for letting me know :)

[@michelewilliams3087]

Wow thank u so much!! Of all the crochet tutorials I’ve watched I’ve never seen the way you do a decrease!! I believe that make a smoother, uniform transition!! I also like the easy color adding with the triple color band. Subscribed!! Will be watching more of your videos!!

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you so much. I’m very glad that my way of going about decreasing and changing colors resonated with you. Thanks for taking the time to let me know and for subscribing! It means a lot!🙂🙏🏾

[@michelewilliams3087]

Most definitely. I have watched literally hundreds of videos, so that's why your approach is unique. It really is!! I'll be watching more! Also I made my guy that hat the same day and he loved it!! I only made a couple more rows with more decrease cuz he has a small head. Turned out great!!

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Oh wow! That’s awesome! I appreciate it. And I’m glad you were able to adjust it for his head. Thanks for letting me know 🙏🏾

Love this I have another pattern from a while ago this is better thank you

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you like it :)

[@cythcy]

Tip...don’t count the chain 3...it helps to hide the gap that joins the circle. I always do the slip stitch at the top of the chain 3 + a DC then I count from there. It works for me.

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Believe it or not, I actually do it that way sometimes but the approach I took in the video has sentimental value so I wanted to showcase it. I appreciate it though! :)

[@cythcy]

You did an awesome job, it’s beautiful 👍🏽

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thank you so much!

[@empressboogie1213]

This was great thank you 🙏🏽 we can add more increase rows for bigger locs yes?

[@AtreyuCrochet]

You’re welcome! And yes, that’s exactly what you can do to make it bigger as well as add more rows. I hope that helps!

[@empressboogie1213]

@@AtreyuCrochet absolutely! Thanks so much

[@AtreyuCrochet]

You’re welcome

[@Sarz12]

Can this fit for any size head? Lol I have locs buy would love to make for others too so I'm just wondering if it matters really

[@AtreyuCrochet]

You can control the size by the number of rows that you crochet. Also, if the opening is too large for the person’s head, you can add a row or two of single crochet stitches.

[@purppineapple4353]

I know this is an old video but I just got finished making one of these. I had to say, I've been trying for years to get a loc cap right. Found you and BAM! Got it! But question, I want it to fit a lil bit tighter. How do I do a second row of decreasing?

[@AtreyuCrochet]

I’m happy that the video helped and that you’re almost finished making yours. To answer your question, you can just do another round of decreases the way you did the first one. The number of stitches will be different for that second round because you decreased in the previous round but just follow the same decrease pattern that’s in the first round of decreases. If that makes the opening too small, then you can replace that second round of decreases with a round of single crochet because that also makes the opening smaller. I hope that helps! Let me know how it goes! 🙂

[@purppineapple4353]

@@AtreyuCrochet I made one the way you did and I love it! Now I'm going to make another with the 2nd row of decreasing to see if I like it better. If not, I saw you other video where you made a draw string for a stretched out tam. Btw, you are great teacher.

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Okay, that sounds like a plan. And yes, that drawstring is clutch, especially for tams that stretch out over time. Btw, thanks for the kind words! I’m happy to hear that my style of teaching is resonant 🙂

[@pattymata-glenn5324]

@atreyu crochet I’m working on this beautiful Tam. I’m working with a 5mm needle, how many rows more than your sample should I add to 1dc in each st (70 st).

[@AtreyuCrochet]

That's hard to say. It depends on your tension and desired depth. You'll have to make that call as you crochet through it.

Hi @Atreyu, how many total rows ??? TYSM for your tutorials...this is my 4th crochet item I've made from your help! Keep 'em coming😁

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Thanks! I don't remember how many rounds. You have to watch and follow the video to know for sure.

[@melodymaben5365]

Why did you join in second chain of the chain 3 ?

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Preference

[@3nyx]

you should sell these on etsy? or even just let me buy one from you lol

[@AtreyuCrochet]

Maybe if I have more time one day I’ll create an Etsy shop. Thanks!

[@luzp9491]

How many rows in total?

[@AtreyuCrochet]

20, but it might be different for you if you decide to lengthen or shorten it to fit your head better.

[@adayahisrael7224]

I got all the way up until the double crochet. I really need for y’all to slow all the way down so I can see exactly what y’all are doing. Uuugggghhhh !!!

[@AtreyuCrochet]

I’m confused. Who is “y’all”? Also, you know you can adjust the speed that the video plays.

[@adayahisrael7224]

@@AtreyuCrochet I have watched so many videos. How do I slow the video. I had no idea I could do that.
