I think a great addition to this video would be a stitch count somewhere on the screen! Or even just a mention before/after each row would be super helpful. Either way, awesome tutorial

[@meldycrochet]

hi! yes unfortunately i forgot to add them :( i’ll try and add them in future videos because i agree! having the stitch count is very helpful!

[@libzey8033]

that's great to hear, ill be sure to watch more of your videos :D regardless of little details, its very high quality and easy to follow so thank you for making this for free

This video would be so much easier to consume (for me at least) with a written out pattern- even just each row's pattern popping up on screen as shes working on it

[@jazmine7166]

thank you for this pattern!! tip for a more seamless look: sew the leaves and stem together before sewing it onto the hat. the greens look more cohesive that way 💖💖

[@meldycrochet]

omg such a good idea i can’t believe i didn’t think of that!! i’ll definitely try that thank you so much 💖

[@Han_7838]

nice tutorial! i followed this but i did the continuous crochet, which I didn't put any slip stitch in each row. but still did your different double crochet at the beginning of each row. it turned out fine, i love it. thanks!

[@bekas79]

As someone with misophonia, this tutorial was a challenge 🥲🥲🥲 Note for self: for my gauge 3 yarn and needle, i did some changes. - after the row of "increase + double(3)", I added an extra row: "increase + double(3)", and only then did I return to the pattern with "increase + double(12)". - after the first row of all double crochets without increases, I did a row with 4 increases (top, bottom, left and right), and then continued without increases. - besides the aforementioned extra row, I added another one of the ones without increases. I ended up with 16 rows. - the hat was a bit loose, so before starting the rim, I did two extra rows, but of tight single crochets, and it fit very well. - in addition to the 2 rows for the rim, i did an extra one, alternating: "increase(2) + double".

great tutorial! i made a hat for my brother after watching it. however, i suggest that you put the pattern on the screen so that we wouldn't be confused. i also suggest that you slow down for a bit. thanks

Using a stitch marker helps with keeping counts correct.

correct !

[@juliasousa7996]

It turned out so cute!!! I wanted to do this hat for a 3 years old child, how many rows do you recommend me doing?

[@meldycrochet]

hmm, i’m not too sure! i would guess maybe try doing 7 double crochets in the first row and continue as usual? i’ve never made a hat that small before so so not sure! it might be helpful to take a look at some other videos that make smaller hats :) hope this helped!

[@jordonkazmin]

i did the math cuz i’m making one for a 4yr old, it’s 6.36 inches in diameter for the top of the hat. :)

[@lilvivi8585]

Thank you so much for the tutorial,your idea is lovely💞. I was crocheting the body of the hat and it turned out huge...does anybody have any advice?

[@meldycrochet]

So glad you found it helpful! If it's turning out too big, you might be crocheting too loosely. Sizing down your hook might help! you could also just start R1 with 12 dc instead of 13, and keep everything else the same. Hope this helps!

[@manonvandevelden6677]

hey im starting to make mine and I see that I got weight 3 yarn so its a bit smaller than yourse, and I wanted to ask if its going to be a lot smaller or if it is posible to do it with that one? because if its not I need to buy other yarn before I finish this one completely. :)

[@meldycrochet]

hi! yes it’ll probably be smaller! you can also put 14 dc instead of 13 to accommodate or just get weight 4 yarn :)

[@lauragibbons1951]

Is weight 4 yarn equivalent to a DK yarn in UK terms? I'm new to crochet and trying to wrap my head around the types of yarn etc. do you need much and does it matter what fibre it is? E.g. is cotton ok or does acrylic work better?

[@catrinadover6755]

If i use a 5m hook, what would the count be in the beginning?

[@meldycrochet]

hi! i would recommend doing 12 dc in the magic ring instead of 13! everything else should stay the same, but you can play around with it to find what works for you :)

[@autumnswanlund1292]

So I'm confused 7 or 14 rows of dc?

[@its_dezi1180]

Does it get smaller than when you start making the rim ? Cause mine is very very large and I don’t see how it’s so much bigger .

[@meldycrochet]

oh no! it won’t get smaller when you add the rim :( sizes can differ due to different yarn (even if they might be the same weight) and how each person crochets! i found that i tend to have tighter stitches which could be why mine is smaller :(

[@fernandaarriagada3079]

great video !! i made a little rabbit hat 👍

[@Alexa-zr6rc]

great tutorial, ty!

[@mushlii]

As I was crocheting the body of the hat my rows started to ruffle and I noticed yours was still circular, would I need to restart and if so did I maybe make it too tight before? Thank you for the cool tutorial 💕

[@meldycrochet]

hi! this could be for various reasons. for me, this usually happens when your yarn is thicker (different brands can have different thicknesses even if they’re the same weight) and in that case, you can place less increases in row 1 (place 12 instead of 13) if you’re more comfortable with crochet and are good at improvising patterns, you can undo your work until you get rid of the ruffles parts and continue but place less increases in each row if that makes sense. if you need more assistance lmk! good luck :)

[@IzzyFizz22]

@@sainabanavas8550 yes there was another tutorial that specified that you need to make a circle for on top of your head using double crochets until it covers only top of your head and then go In the back loops only for one row and then continue normally and then do until ears then do ruffles 😆 sorry if it sounds confusing I will find the tutorial it was for a mushroom hat but it works for strawberry to
