Hi sweet please could you let me know , Round 5 is it 2 chains then 3 Double crochet in each stitch all the way Round , then Round 6 is 2 Chains Then 4 Double crochet in each stitch Sorry I’m learning regards Sharmaine 😊

Round 5 is, 2 chains then an Increase which is equivalent to making 2 double crochet in the same stitch, then do 3 double crochet in separate stitches.

Follow the same as round 4 but now in round 5 you do 2 double crochet in one stitch, 3 double crochets in separate stitches, 2 double crochet in one stitch, 3 double crochets in separate stitches, etc til end of the round.

Tell me after the increase for the ruffle the one,two and three ,how many double Chrochet follow s and how many raws before closing the hat

[@js8741]

Have you tried this with a different type of yarn? If so, would you still double the strands?

[@umphi_creates]

Yes I have. You can still use acrylic yarn, cotton, milk cotton, etc… Doubling the strands is optional. You can still use one strand, you will just have extra rounds for the base.

[@LizzetteHopane]

Hi thanks it is very nice will 1 big wool be enough if I double it

I can’t promise because I’m not sure how many grams it is.

[@nozimanga_]

thanks so much for this tutorial! what is the width of the brim in measurements?

[@umphi_creates]

I think it was 2 or 3 inches. You can make the bring to cover more of the face and do more rounds. It just goes with preference.

[@nozimanga_]

@@umphi_creates cool, thanks so much

[@AnnaSooAmazing]

Ok, I am making this hat, and I'm using acrylic yarn. What I wanna know is, what are you doing for row 4?? I know I'm supposed to Increase when starting and then it's two DC in the same nest two stitches. But do I d 3 DC in the next stitch after?? I need to know if I'm doing this right or is it ny yarn 🧶

[@umphi_creates]

You increase( 2 dc in one stitch) then do 1 dc in each of the next 2 stitches.

[@randomtrucks]

followed the directions but mine turned out too big - i think it's the tension or the hook size? mine has more holes and is less opaque than yours. I even started working on the mesh part after 6,5 inches diameter. It somehow still "flared out" to 8 inches after 2 rounds. what can I do to improve this?

[@umphi_creates]

Definitely something wrong you see doing. It won’t be easy to tell without seeing the work

Beautiful I'm making it now

@@umphi_creates Thank you so much picture coming soon

[@thobilekhanyisile4859]

Hey fam what's the meaning of "increase 3 DC"

[@umphi_creates]

An increase = 2 double crochets in one stitch 3 DC = 3 separate double crochets in stitches

[@AjayiToyin-k3e]

Please what’s the size of pin you used ?

[@UchechiAkala]

At round 5 ,after the increase and 3 dc should I continue same procedure till am done with round 5

[@umphi_creates]

You continue until you reach your desired base of the hat.

[@AnnaSooAmazing]

My hat is curling doing round 6 and I'm increasing 4 and dc in the next two stitches. Please tell me what I'm doing worng.

[@umphi_creates]

You increase( 2 dc in one stitch) then do 1 dc in each of the next 4 stitches.

[@ndinelagohaiduwa936]

Hey, by any chance increase what do you mean. After double crochet and then increase but I don’t understand the increase. Do you add three

[@umphi_creates]

Increase means crocheting 2 double crochet in one stitch.

Thanks ❤

[@umphi_creates]

You're welcome 😊

[@MaryDixon-ll1qg]

Hi please help me with the continuation is it 123

[@crishawj]

I enlarged it believe that after the second round of increases you just DC into every stitch. Doing mines this way, hope this helps.

[@umphi_creates]

I want to help but I’m not sure what you mean by 123

[@magic.weaver]

I am using the same colour for my hat, and i have a lot of yarn left, can you suggest what i can make to match with the hat ?

[@umphi_creates]

A bucket hat matches with anything honestly. I normally prefer wearing one handmade item at a time

[@ChelseaDrummond-lq7zd]

Is it ok if my base circle isn’t flat as I start to add more rings to get to the 7 inches?

[@umphi_creates]

It should be flat

[@user-el3xn9ol5l]

I tried this but I'm having issues after the 4inches measurement.....I really don't know how to increase to get to 7inch without my work showing ruffle

[@umphi_creates]

Are you using a Dk yarn or ? What hook size? Please also check your count for every round.

[@UchechiAkala]

What yarn is used for this crochet ?cuz mine is always coming out small

[@umphi_creates]

I used cotton and doubled the strands

[@gabrielle_tomato]

Hi, how much yarn did you use overall?

[@umphi_creates]

For this project it’s hard to say because i had leftover yarn and i dont have a scale to check the grams. But I’d say about 200g.

[@muhammedshukurat8440]

How can one know the diameter to work on, i mean how do you measure the head to know the diameter to makr

[@umphi_creates]

You can use a conversion on google from circumference to diameter.

[@candyg200]

Hi Umpi I did my 7 rows and have a diameter of 6 inches should I continue or add other rows to make 7 inches

[@umphi_creates]

I would advise that you add another one but depending on your head size, if you are able to calculate the diameter of your head from the circumference please do. Use a google calculator, measure your head circumference then use the calculator to convert it to diameter. If the measurements are close to 6inch then continue, if not then increase the round. Hope i make sense. But 6inch most times it becomes too tight on the head and we don’t want you to have unnecessary headaches

[@candyg200]

Thanks luv

[@AlimamyMorrisonSesay-js5et]

Can I use a 3.5mm for this tutorial

[@umphi_creates]

Chances are you did not do a proper count on stitches on certain rounds

[@luzreyes1251]

If I use Worsted weigh yarn do I need to double the yarn

[@umphi_creates]

You can or not. Remember the thickness of the yarn differs. If you double it then you will reach your desired base quicker. You can try both and see.

[@ovenseriflourish5514]

U double the yard for strength or what please
