Hello, I am a 16 year old girl who picked up crocheting in the year 2019. I like to make things for the people i care about and for my self. I just finished making the Beanie. It took me about 2 days to work on it bec I took brakes and had other stuff to do. I made it for my friend who loves beanies. It is a birthday gift and I hope she likes it. You were so good at explaining and I love the pattern. Thank You So Much!!! ❤ May God Bless You!!! :D

[@tigerlilly9038]

I absolutely love to see a well mannered and grateful young person in this current world. Good job to young one!!

[@vernaeagle7308]

She will love it because you made it just for her!!

[@mycustompaintedlife502]

I'm so glad to hear that kids are still creative besides digitally creative. There is a difference but I can't get my 16 year old into any artsy stuff.

[@roseterhune922]

I am making hats for people of Ukraine. This is the best pattern as it is quick and easy. Thanks for the chart for sizes. MaKing for men, women, children, and babies. I am 84 years old and have been crocheting since 5 years old. Thanks again. Grandma Rosie ❤️ 👵

I'm making this for a coworker who made me a beautiful scarf. Unfortunately I only had a 4 worsted weight so it's going to be more of a fall pattern but I'm excited to finish and give it to her. She's a wonderful lady. Thank you so much for this pattern!!! I think I might add a pompom too or maybe an applique

[@deeluxe9901]

This was my first project as a newbie! The hat came out lovely but the adult large was comically too big for my head! I am definitely going to tackle this again and adjust the sizing. Loved the video tutorial, it was so helpful! Will be back for more! Thank you for this wonderful content and free pattern!! 🥰

[@deborahtichy3877]

I watched several videos, because I wanted to make a hat. And I chose this one. It was a great choice. Just completed my first hat, and it is thick, warm and perfect. It will be for my son in Colorado who works on the ski slopes through winter, and This turned out perfect for him! I will make myself one next. LoL I used a super bulky #6 and a medium #4 together. Soon I will venture to socks and footies. I will subscribe to your videos and hopefully find some tutorials on this there. Thanks so much. Be well stay safe ❤️

bonjour , je vous remercie il et très beau pas compliqué , la laine aussi et très belle , bonne fin de journée et bonne fête de fin d année a très très vite , Monique

[@yogawithmelissasilva2616]

Great instructions and easy to do for sure! I attempted to do this with a 10mm needle and size 6 yarn because that is what I had. Unfortunately it didn't work haha. The beanie was way to thick and too tall it looked silly. Totally my fault though, just thought I'd share incase anyone is thinking about trying the same thing. I will definitely try again when I have the proper supplies. Thanks for sharing!

[@TheTurtleTrunk]

Oh no! Sorry that happened, yarn size and hook size really make a difference for getting the sizing right. I do have another beanie pattern like this that does use super bulky (6) weight yarn if you wanted to try again with the yarn you have! Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a3uVZn96dr6jpLs&feature=share&si=ELPmzJkDCLju2KnD5oyZMQ

I love your videos and patterns!! They are so much fun. Thank you, thank you. ❤️ Since Lion’s Brand Color Made Easy has been discontinued, can you recommend a good substitute for a 5 Bulky yarn?

[@TheTurtleTrunk]

Thank you so much Kas! Some other yarns I love for this pattern are Lion Brand Hue + Me and Hobby Lobby's I Love This Chunky. But you can really use any Bulky (5) Weight Yarn!

Nice👍👍

[@NEChristo]

When slip stitching the ends together you say to go through the front loop of the last row we did...but it looks like the back loop? Is it the loop farthest from us?

[@TheTurtleTrunk]

It’ll be the loop closest to you!

[@violetnewby]

Nice. Simple. Quick!

[@violetnewby]

I sure wish I knew how to post photos! The beanie which I crocheted turned out very nicely!!

[@miacalmet4579]

Hi! I love your tutorials, thank you so much! However, I have a problem... I lost count of my rows and I don’t know how many I have crocheted, some advice? 🥺

[@TheTurtleTrunk]

Hi! When looking at one side of the piece, there will be 2 rows between the ribbing, so I find it easiest to count by twos across! Hope that helps!

[@NEChristo]

Also, how would I adjust this for a super bulky yarn (6)? Will I need more or less rows and stitches? I’m making the adult large for my husband. He has a large head lol. I just started crocheting about 4 months ago so need a bit of help...thanks!

[@TheTurtleTrunk]

You will need less rows and less stitches if using a thicker yarn. You could try following along with either the adult small or medium and it should turn out more to the size of a large. I would just keep measuring your work as you go and stop when you reach the size you desire. Hope that helps!
