I made additional 5 rows of the single crochet and this worked to get my hat to look like a beanie first, cause it was rather flat an not fitting snuggly around my head. Ofcourse I had do lot of unraveling. I then continued with the ruffles...

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Thanks so much for sharing. I know it turned out beautiful!

This is a good suggestion. I may not do 5 rows but maybe three before starting the ruffles.

[@adgurl01]

I LOVE your tutorial. ONE suggestion for future videos is maybe if you could announce how many stitches at the end of each round. That would be most helpful ❤️❤️❤️

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@@adgurl01 Blessings, to be honest I really don’t count my stitches at the end of my rounds. I don’t do that because when I was a beginner crocheter that used to frustrate me when I was missing a stitch or two and I use to do it all over again. And in my older videos I use to get tons of emails saying they were missing stitches. So I stop doing the counting after each rounds. I just read what I have in my notebook and record just to share. I will try my best to upload the written pattern online when I can that will have the stitch count at the end of each rounds thanks to my pattern testers. Happy crafting!

Blessings and thanks so much. When I crochet I usually have my arms resting on a pillow like one of those nursing baby pillows or place a pillow in front of you and let them rest on that while you are crocheting. Also take breaks and get a compression glove for your hands a well. I pray this helps. Happy crocheting ❤️

[@jamalwalker8214]

Do you have a tutorial where you’re doing the drawstring method for the hat? If not, would it be okay if I did mine without the elastic?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@jamalwalker8214 blessings you can add a like 3 more rounds of single crochet inside your hat. My latest tutorial has a drawstring in that. You can chain up the same and insert your drawstring at the last double crochet round you made. But if you just add a few more single crochet rounds inside your hat, you'll be fine.

[@adalisayala1462]

I love the tutorial, I can't wait to make this pattern! Is the elastic 100% necessary or could you make the hat without it?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Blessings ....You can make it without it... maybe add a few more single crochet rounds inside the hat ... you'll know what I'm talking about when you get further into the tutorial. Happy Crocheting 🥰

[@Kdramawildin]

If I wanted the hat to be bigger would I just increase the rounds? Like continue to 6-single double crochet between every 2 double crochet and so on?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

So in this video round 6 is the last increase round…if you want to add another increase round you will do it after that round…..you would….join, chain 2, double crochet inside that same stitch, *1 double in each of the next 5 stitches, and 2 double crochet inside the 6th stitch* repeat ** all the way around….then continue on to the reminder of this video ❤

[@aprilwashington4966]

Thank you for this video. I’m wondering how comfortable the hat is with the elastic it? I love how it looks on the mannequin.

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@@aprilwashington4966 Blessings, it should feel comfortable on your head …..my customers love it. My mannequin head size is about the same size as an average woman head size. You can opt out of not adding elastic and try it on your head. Some people even added more single crochet rounds inside the hat as well. Happy crocheting ❤️

[@jayplayz8480]

For the joining do I clip off the yarn that I did at the end of row 13 but still leaving the loop?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@jayplayz8480 if you have two skeins of yarn you are drawing up a loop and not cutting off because you will come back to that. I'm using the second skeins of yarn to attach where I will be placing the single crochets inside the hat. If you don't have a second skein of yarn....just fasten off and use that yarn to do the single crochet rounds and etc then attach back to finish the last round of ruffles.

So you have measurements for a smaller size. Like 20-22 ?

Blessings. No, but you can print out the head measuring chart in the description box if you need a certain head measurement.

[@shadiamondmcintyre9032]

Is there a way to add the elastic after you’ve finished the hat? I started my hat using another tutorial before I came across your video and I’ve already started on the second row. I will definitely refer to this video on my next hat!

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

You can just go inside the hat the row under before you started the ruffle rows to the hat....the double crochet in the ruffles can stretch the hat so you will need to bring it back in....I hope that makes sense but you can always email me so I can help 🥰 [e-mail]

[@queenbosschief84]

Is there significance as to why you cant finish the ruffles before going to do the inside elastic stitch?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

You can if you want to....but when I did my first ruffle hat I did it that way and felt like the 3rd ruffle round was in the way when I went back inside the hat to do the single crochets. Doing it this way in the video was just better for me, and it gave me a small break from just going straight in the last 3rd row of ruffles.

[@queenbosschief84]

[@daniellealexus]

Hi Jess, how do you weave in the ends? Do you crochet them back in?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@@daniellealexus blessings you can just as long you can’t see them in the front and don’t go in the same direction so it would be hard for it to unravel. If you go to my beginner how to crochet you see how I weave ends.

[@daniellealexus]

@@JessHandmadeDesigns Also, last question. How would I do that if I wanted the ruffles to be a different color? Thank you for the quick response!

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@daniellealexus there’s many ways to do that…you can carry your yarn as you go if it’s two colors you are changing it from…..or cut and weave ends at the end lol that would require more patience lol . Most people up a multicolor yarn to skip that process and weave a few ends.

[@DreamWilliams198]

Is there any other substitute for elastic because I don’t have any?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Blessings, you can just add more single crochet rounds or add a draw string to it.

[@DreamWilliams198]

@@JessHandmadeDesigns ohhhh okay thanks I'll try to use a draw string❤️‍🩹

[@MesiasCloset]

My yarn keeps curling up on me when I’m only on row 3.. does this mean I have the wrong kind of yarn

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Are you able email me a photo so I can see your progress [e-mail]

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Curling is usually caused by crocheting too tight. I'm using a I hook so if you want to try and see if it stops Curling if you change the hook size to a J hook. Or make sure you are doing 2dc in the same stitch,* 1dc in the next st, 2dc in the next st* ** *Repeat all the way around*

[@_go.ncalves]

im confused at 20:03. do you use the long loop that was pulled earlier on ?

[@_go.ncalves]

like does the slip knot need to be from the loop or from a new piece of yarn?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

@_go.ncalves Blessings yes 18:18 I mentioned that we will be working with the new skein of yarn....we will be going back to the other yarn when we do the last row of our ruffles. If you don't have a second skeins of yarn just fasten off and work with that. I hope that helps❤

[@unathinkosi1263]

heyy! please explain just a little bit on how to do the drawstring method instead of elastic?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

I've used drawstrings for for hats as well go to this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/paGroJKFhd1sracsi=GBdZ1Ii9k35rHqK5 and forward to the 25:43 mark. It will show you how to make and weave in a drawstring. To add the drawstring on the ruffle hat...insert it in the last double crochet round (round 10) to be honest if you do the 2 rounds of single crochet you won't need the drawstring. The elastic just helps with stretching overtime.

[@lyricsornah9882]

Does this hug the head well? Some patterns just have the ruffles to hold the hat on the head

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Yes it does. Adding the single crochet round before the ruffle rounds and the additional single crochet rounds when we go inside the hat helps with the perfect fit even if you don’t add the elastic. Happy crocheting!

[@lyricsornah9882]

@@JessHandmadeDesigns thank you so much. ❤️

[@keonalewis5641]

My hat is still loose after the single crochet what did I do wrong ?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

The ruffle hat will come together after the elastic is put in. Also your tension matters as well…. I would need to see your hat to see what round you are on to see how we can troubleshoot. Email me [e-mail]

[@Randommm355]

Hey how do you weave in the ends ?

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Blessings you take your yarn and attach it to a Darning Needle and weave in your ends. I have a beginner friendly tutorial on how to crochet go in that video description box and scroll to the time stamp on how to weave in ends ❤ Happy Crocheting

[@lorrainesampson1537]

Thank how many stitches before starting ruffle ❤

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Blessings, you should have about 66 stitches before you start the ruffles.....I really don't count my stitches. I use a hat measuring guide. The link is in the description box. If you have 60-66 stitches, that is fine because you will be bringing in the hat when you start the single crochets inside the hat ❤

Can I use any type of yarn for hat??

I only tried this hat with Worsted weight yarn. But if you try a different type you will get different results. So have a notebook nearby to write down the change you made for the hat. Also check the description box and use the hat chart.

4ply Worsted weight weight yarn (I'm using I love this yarn from hobby lobby) everything is listed in the description box ❤️ Happy Crocheting

[@FitArii]

My head big 😭can I add extra rows before the ruffles? & would I do the same increase as row 11 for the added rows

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Add another increase round after Round 6 so your Round 7 will be ch2, 2dc inside that same stitch, * 1 dc in each of the next 5 stitches, 2dc in the 6th stitch,* *Repeat all the way around and join* and then continue on with the rest of the video. Happy Crocheting ❤

[@JessHandmadeDesigns]

Also keep in mind this is like making a regular beanie, but instead doing the whole beanie pattern we stop a couple of rows beforehand so we can do the ruffles. The added crochet rounds inside the hat can give you the fit around your head so it won't fill like it's loose.... so you can add more rounds to that and try it out. ❤ hope this helps as well❤
