I'm a big fan of Clover hooks and needles. FYI, the Clover crochet hooks do come in sizes 3.5 (E), 3.75 (F), and 4.0 (G) - Head over to Amazon, at the time of this entry all three sizes E-G are less than $6 each. p.s. Diggin' your channel.

Aaaah this is amazing! Been wanting a hat like this for a while, and then I kept seeing this ad on IG with these witch hats, I was like naaah I want to make one myself. And here you are with this easy pattern, it turned out great! Thanks a loooot girl

Awesome sauce ! So glad it worked out for you! 🙌🏻🖤

[@erinmunn5303]

I did it! Great tutorial. I changed up the brim to be more ruffley by doing 2 dc in every stitch after the brim for 2 rows and its super cute. I needed a scarecrow hat for my toddler and it looks great.

[@Sepulchre_Gate]

I like the pattern . I couldn't find a sc pattern so I made up my own . Yours is very different than what I came up with . I was curious to see if you continued to increase down to the brim . I'm surprised that you didn't go straight down for a few inches for a more snug fit .

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I like things a little oversized- the pattern was designed to build it to fit your personal preference for size. My head circumference is probably different from yours . I’m not quite understanding your question of why I did it the way I did? I’m happy with mine and it sounds like you’re very happy with yours , yes? 😀🙌🏻🖤

[@Sepulchre_Gate]

@@PlayHookywithMe Mine isn't finished yet , but I have decided that I'd prefer something more fitted . I'm thinking about doing a 3 inch back loop slip stitch hat band before the brim .

Fun and easy to follow. Was wondering if there was any other wool I could use as I am in the 🇬🇧 and I can't fine the ones you used.

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Really you can use anything you like. I had a chunky yarn at first that I was going to use (I think I mentioned this in the yarn description) but liked the tinsel in the one I ultimately used. If you use the thicker wool , then you won’t need to use 2 strands. I’m thinking about making another with a thicker velour yarn.

I had to rewatch the intro where you said you were a slow crocheter and worked this up in about an hour… Evidently, I’m a snail crocheter because wow, I did NOT stand a chance of this only taking an hour even with the simple stitch pattern. Lovely outcome, though!

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I think it was so quick for me because I designed it and had it memorized in my head , y’know? So I regret now saying that because it’s not as easy when you are learning something new. But after you’ve made one , your second one ,would be made in half the time, I’m sure! 🧶💕

Hello I'm stuck after doing front loop of sc 66 where do I go from here im confused do I do 9 sc , inc and keep doing that row until I get the desired fit

[@joyfulprincessofmars9076]

After 9sc, inc repeat (66) I assume you keep increasing until it's the right size, so the next step would be 10sc, inc repeat (72) 2 rounds of 72 sc 11sc, inc repeat (78) 2 rounds of 78 sc 12sc, inc repeat (84) 2 rounds of 84 sc 13sc, inc repeat (90) 2 rounds of 90 sc Just stop at whatever size seems right for you, then add the brim.

[@teddycrieftowne3113]

How did you get your yard to constantly have 2 loops on it, are you using two things of yarn simultaneously, I can’t seem to get that effect

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Yes, I used two strands. Check out “round one” of the video (there are time stamps in the description box below the video) and you will see how I was using two. If you use red heart super saver, their skeins are usually good for pulling from the center and outside strands. Hope that helps.

Just wondering if I could use a bulkier yarn instead of doubling the strands? Also curious why you used a 9mm to make the hat, but used a different one for the tutorial?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Sure, you can use a bulkier yarn. I was making one in a bulkier but ran out of yarn. I was using a 9mm with the bulkier yarn. For the tutorial - I used a sport weight yarn which requires a smaller hook. I had run out of the yarn I had for the hat. Use the 9mm with your bulkier yarn and you should be good to go. 👍🏻🧶🖤

I'm having troubles with the increase . When you're increasing at 18 I was increasing with 24. I'm not sure if I'm doing it right. Is it a 2 single crochets in each one single crochet?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Hi Ashley 🤗 To go from 18 to 24 , you want to put one single crochet into the next two stitches and then in the 3rd stitch you will put 2 single crochets . Single crochet, single crochet , 2 single crochets . And repeat that all the way around. If you are meaning you were trying to go from 12 to 18 , then you want to do one single crochet in the first stitch and then put 2 in the second stitch all the way around.

[@marianaramirez7822]

Ahh please help I ended my size at 9 increase. How do I start my brim and where do I increase? In what number stitch after starting the next row? 🙏 I’m learning a lot from making his hat thank you for the help ☺️

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Once you’ve done the 9sc increase row you should have 66 stitches . For the start of your brim, work one round of sc into those 66 stitches but in the FRONT LOOP ONLY (this will give you a ridge to help start your brim) Next, continue with an increase row increase of 6 like you've been doing for the rest of the hat (72) The,n for the next round do 72 sc. Next, another increase row adding 6 more (78) . Then a final round of 78 sc . If you want to make the brim even bigger just do another inc row taking your 78 to 84 and add a sc row of 84 if you like. Totally up to you. You’re just doing what you’ve been doing the entire hat. The only difference Is working into the front loop only to start your brim. xx

[@micheller8208]

So- I’m around rows 6-8. And what I’m unsure about with the increase rows is : do you do the increase from 12 to 18 and then 2 more additional rows of 18. So 3 rows of 18. Or is it just 2 ? Help please I’ve been wanting to make one of these for 3 halloweens and finally found a tutorial I can follow

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Right, you’ll increase to 18 and then do 2 more rows of 18. So 3 rows of 18 total. Then you’ll increase to 24 and follow that with 2 more rows of 24 . increase row + 2 rows = 3 rows with same number 🖤

[@gray_ah]

Do you think you could use wool to crochet this and felt it smooth? New to crochet, but a long time knitter. Thank you!

Do you have to double up the yarn ?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

No , but it you don’t , I’d recommend you use a thicker yarn otherwise it’s going to work up smaller than the pattern tutorial.

@PlayHookywithMe thank you im in the middle of making one now and watching your video

[@xXoOAnimegirlOoXx]

My brim keeps rolling up no matter what I do any tips on the brim?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I would recommend a fabric stiffener . You can brush a little bit of liquid starch on there or use spray starch. Go slowly with the starches because they can add a little film to the yarn which shows up more on black. You can also stiffen it with a diy mixture of equal parts water and glue and brush that onto the brim. Place your hat onto a surface where you can sit it upright and pin the brim into the shape you want … then use one of these methods and set to dry for a few hours 👍🏻💕

[@laia3749]

I did it a while back but it looks oretty floppy on the sides. I don t know how to fix it to have it stand straight. Should I use a smaller hook for the sides or use a tighter stich for them? Thank you crochet community. I re did it twice but the rim continues to flop...

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I would suggest some liquid stiffener. I’ll probably do a video about this in the Fall (closer to Halloween) but you should be able to find some tutorials on how to stiffen a rim if you need something right now. Here’s a good one. kzbin.info/www/bejne/h4OnmKR5Z5hoZpI And this kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4fWp4iOg9l6ppY

Wow thank you so much! I'll check it out! I've seen it done in white crocheted ornaments with liquid glue and barnish, but t I was afraid that I might destroy the project. Thank you! I actually needed it for Saturday!

In what world does this take an hour?! I love the two I made but they took waaaaaaay longer than 60 minutes!

[@PlayHookywithMe]

😅😅 oh really? Well I’m very happy that it didn’t put you off of making a second! 🤗💕 Thank you xx

How would I make a split color hat?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

You would just have to fasten off after each round and fasten back on with your new color. I would recommend watching videos where people teach how to change color when working in rounds like amigurumi .

[@Some_Guy_Called_Raven]

I know this is a 2 year old video now, but I have one question. Other than trying the hat on from time to time. How do you measure or know the stitch count for a specific circumstance?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

For me, I only made it for myself . If you’re wanting to make it for others sizes, I’d recommend you Google average head circumferences and then crochet until you reach that measurement using a tape measure. That’s how I would do it, anyway.

[@Some_Guy_Called_Raven]

@@PlayHookywithMe ok good idea. Working on one now using a solid strand with an ombre strand. :)

[@PlayHookywithMe]

@@Some_Guy_Called_Raven oooh, sounds fabulous 🤩

[@Amy_The_unbearded]

When starting the brim, do you continue increasing from where you left off on the hat or do you "restart" and increase as you did to start the hat? This is the only area I'm a bit confused about. (Just finished my round of front loop only stitching and am about to start in on the brim.) Can anyone offer any answers lol. (I'm trying desperately to get this finished by morning!)

[@PlayHookywithMe]

You continue increasing from where you left off 👍🏻💕

[@Amy_The_unbearded]

@@PlayHookywithMe thank you! I thought that was the case but figured better to ask than end up frogging or starting over lol!

Hello, is there a way to do this with double crochets? I tried but it came out too thin and tall I'm not sure how to change the pattern for a dc

[@PlayHookywithMe]

There’s not a whole lot you can do to change that because double crochets are extending the length of your piece by double so you would have to start with a different stitch count to begin. Maybe half double crochets would work better if you don’t want to do singles. . Or you could do some rounds with half doubles and then move to doubles to help manage the length/circumference ratio. 💕

[@annafranklin6568]

Can i use the smaller hook to make a big sized hat? I don't have a big hook :(

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Yes , just make sure you’re using yarn that matches your hook size. It will take you more rounds to make the hat so just keep that in mind 🖤

[@alyssagarcia9412]

If I don’t end on an increase does that mean I counted wrong on another round ?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Yes 💕

[@vanessabustamante817]

Help! My brim curls up and it looks more like gnome hat than a witch. What did I do wrong?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Did you work in the back loop only to start your brim? That helps to bend the hat to start the brim . If your brim is curling I would suggest you get some stiffener spray or liquid starch . I have a link in the description box below the video. Stiffen Quick is a popular product. Spray the brim only in the position you want. Use pins to help if necessary. I would also suggest adding a couple more rows to your brim to make it wider. It will look less like a gnome hat if you do. Hope that helps.

[@sabrinaramos4418]

Do you have written patterns??

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Sorry not yet. That’s my goal for 2022 💕

[@Charliepend]

Did you do 21 rows until you got to the brim since your measurement was 21?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

No , my head circumference was 21 inches around but it didn’t take that many rows to reach it. I can’t recall exactly but it was less than 21.

[@Charliepend]

@@PlayHookywithMe Okay thank you!

What is the name of your pink/ red 6.5 hook what brand is it? Thank you

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Hi Connie, I bought this hook many years ago so I unfortunately don't know the brand. It is just an inexpensive aluminum hook that I got in a pack from my local craft store (I usually shop at Michaels, Walmart or Hobby Lobby) . I have added a link to an amazon option in the description box. I don't think this is the exact brand that I bought. The 6.5 mm looks like it is purple in this photo. But the tip and shape are the same. It is tapered like this. Hope that helps. xx

[@TemplatesbyLei]

Hi! This is my very first attempt at crochet. I get confused when I finish the first inc row on each stitch (12) my 11-12 sc ends just before the stitch with the marker on. Is that supposed to happen? Or am I supposed to end my 12 sc in the last stitch with the marker?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Are you doing it just like me - or are you putting your stitch marker in at a different place?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

If you’re doing it just like me , then you should be adding a stitch in the last one with a marker in it. If you find that confusing, you can instead put your marker in the first stitch. Whatever works best for you 💕

[@TemplatesbyLei]

I was doing it just like you but made a mistake in the beginning 🤣 After a few tries I got it right. I had to make a whole chart for me to keep track because of my adhd 😅 (also i'm left handed) Thank you so much for this tutorial 💜

[@PlayHookywithMe]

@@TemplatesbyLei oh bless your heart!! I’m so glad you were able to figure it out. I really need to figure out how to make left handed versions . 👏🏻👏🏻🖤🙌🏻

[@kellydukepoo2450]

Ok so I made this and all is good to I get to the brim. It keeps wanting to curl up. I even tried to add a wire to manipulate it but it doesn't want to last flat. Had any buddy else had this problem? What can I do?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Maybe you can try to stiffen it with liquid starch. Try a spray like “stiffen quick” I’ll add a link in the description box below. Put some plastic on your table and then place your hat on the table with the brim in the position you want. Spray the brim with stiffener until it’s wet. Wrap a plastic bag around your hand to smooth the stiffener into the fibers. Let dry. Repeat again if necessary.

Has anyone else had a problem with this pattern? I have tried to make it multiple times with different yarn different size hooks and it always comes out extremely small. Small like for a baby small. Is it just me?

[@Alienluvr9]

how do i measure it to fit on the back of my head?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

I’m not quite sure what you mean when you say on the back. I would suggest just continuing to work in rounds until it fits. Measure the area you want it to fit and keep crocheting in the round until you reach that measurement.

[@alexandriataylor4449]

Do you have your yarn doubled up in here? if so, how did you do that?

[@PlayHookywithMe]

Yes the yarn brand I used for this makes it very easy to pull a strand from the center as well as from the outside of the ball. (Red heart was the brand) Otherwise I would just work with 2 balls at the same time if it was too hard to find the tail of yarn in the center.
