Easy Crochet Granny Circle Bucket Hat Tutorial | DIY

[@temptationss.3953]

For those needing to increase the base of the hat, this is what helped me: Repeat Row 4 exactly as shown in the video. Then for the next row repeat these steps: use a size bigger hook for this row and lighten your tension just a little -> ch3 2dc in same stitch -> ch1, skip 1 gap and 3dc into the next gap -> ch1 skip gap and 3dc into the next gap. Do this all the way around. This will flatten the top of your hat slightly, it will not be completely flat and perfect but it will look very good in the end, trust the process. Hope I could help some of you out!

[@4licia517]

Hey, do you do this for rest of the rows? Or just row 5 and follow the rest of the tutorial as normal? Thanks!

[@aliza-is-dumb]

om gosh ur a life saver

[@isabellarose10ij]

Do we do this instead of doing row 5?

[@isabellarose10ij]

Or do row 4 twice?

[@tammymorales13]

My anxiety has been awful lately, and one thing I do to help mitigate it is that I follow along crochet tutorials I haven't seen before. Let me tell you, this pattern was so soothing for me and it turned out great! There's just something about granny stitches for me. Thank you for this tutorial!!

Accidentally made mine massive I think bc of my tension but it made it so floppy and cute. Thank you! Your videos are so so easy to follow for me.

For yall wandering how to make it bigger ( what she does with putting dc's in the middle of the prev dc's is the equivalent to a inc round! Hooe this helps also when she is going down to make the hat just place 3 dc in ea gap thats all!

I'm so happy with my results!!!!.... I love how u quickly tutorialized (I know that's NOT even a word, but that's the only way I could describe how you got thru this without a bunch of words to confuse the hook out of a beginner crocheter. Thanks for the tutorial.... I made this bucket hat in 5 hours and I was rushing because they were goin on vacation and asked me if I could make a bucket hat them in record time!... I took on the challenge and it was completed so fast I didn't even get pics of the finished work!.... I have some the progress I was making but none of the finished work. Thanks again!!!...

Now that was the easiest and simplest bucket hat I have seen thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us 😊😊😊

[@janaeramos624]

Hello everyone! I just wanted to say I’m order to make a bigger or smaller sized hat it’s about the amount of stitches on the first row that creates the circle. For an average Womens size head it’s usually 12-13 stitches to start off. I hope this helps you.

[@jenniferblanks4035]

Thank you for the tutorial! May you give us a clearer description on how to increase the crown of the hat? I think this is the comment you are referring to when people ask but I was under the impression that you can only increase by adding an increase row. Not necessarily the starting stitches. I appreciate your help!

[@meg56794]

Thanks this was quick to make up about 1.5 hours . Had to move down to 4.5mm hook , I think 4mm would be better for me I crochet very loose . Thanks again

[@angellovedove]

@@mailyscar9056just add an extra DC at the end of row and beginning of next row depending how much you need to increase or decrease.

[@JazzyGems111]

Thank you. I love this pattern. But as you can see in the comments, you left us all hanging after you measured the circle! You said we could add more rows but never told us how. My beginning circle only measures 5". What is the pattern sequence to add another row or two? Thank you!

[@delphiphoenix9024]

I think you would repeat the increase row that is two in the space and two in the middle stitch

[@delphiphoenix9024]

And then when you get to the desired measurement of the crown, you can repeat the three dc cluster for the hat.

[@sydneyshettleroe6531]

For those that are having trouble, I was also having trouble in the beginning so instead of doing 10 double crochets I did nine since the chain four counted as one double crochet chain one and I was able to get 30 stitches at the end of the round. for the rest. Just make sure you pay close attention and you should have no problem.

[@forelleblau]

Thank you for your instructions. It is super. Perfect- I crocheted the hat. Unfortunately with yarn, the measurements. Were not right. But I've never had such perfect instructions. The brim is not good for my yarn, too wavy and short, but the hat is too long. You also have to think and experiment. Thank you very much.

[@Threadseer42]

How do you increase the size?

[@kimberlyclonch2356]

I didn’t care for the wavy brim so I did more rows of dc in which I did four dc in each stitch then 2 dc in the next all the way around. The next row I I did 5 dc in each stitch around and then 2. So it’s first row 4 then 2 etc all the way around then next row it’s 5 dc 2 dc etc

[@fur1375]

Nice. This was easy, but I was to lazy to get my 5mm 😂😂 it’s smaller and tight😂 fits a kids head prefect though 🤷🏽‍♀️ used a 3.75mm & started a 4.25mm at row 11.

[@maddiebark7007]

When working in granny stitches/ squares I usually just crochet over them!! Then cut off excess:))

[@MijnJaz]

@@maddiebark7007 thank you for your answer! Ik didn't know i should have done that haha, but that's fine. I will weave it in with a tapestry needle.

[@NuttyBerry]

​​​​@@MijnJaz She definitely cuts her ends wayyy too short. I usually crochet over the tail and then weave it back in the opposite direction at least once with a tapestry needle just to ensure it doesn't fall out eventually. I inherited a beautiful granny square blanket from my great aunt when she died and it appears she only crocheted over the ends before cutting the yarn and several of the granny squares started to unravel after a wash. I tend to go a bit over kill weaving in my ends but it's better than having to fix it later.

How do i make the top of the head bigger?

I’m trying this out as I comment but I think you might do the row of 2 dc in the spaces and middle of clusters again? Then the 3 dc clusters after that? I’m not sure yet but I think that’s what to do because I have a big head and I’m struggling as well lolll

[@soselss9104]

I think at the beginning where she does 10 dc’s .. instead of stopping at 10 and closing the magic circle with a slip stitch.. try maybe 12 or 14 and then following the rest of the pattern. Let me know if that helps 🥰

[@stitchinwithliz]

I'm not sure why its coming out wonky, but yes you are supposed to repeat row 4 & 5 to make it bigger

[@jovial_pariah]

The same thing has been happening for me too. I have tried to remake it multiple times and repeating row 4 and 5 but it looks weird.

[@Cactidrake]

Did you figure out why it turns out wonky? I repeated 4 & 5 once and mine doesn’t look like a bowl like hers, more like a wobbly flat circle😂

[@destinyvalladares7741]

Honestly what I did was start over and loosened up my tension it helped so that I don’t have to worry about repeating 4&5

[@GraceRocks2001]

I was also having an issue getting it to stay 'normal' and circular- but I ended up getting it to work pretty well by repeating 4 as normal, then for 5 I alternated between 2 and 3 double crochet in each space (instead of 3 in each if repeating 5 exactly). Hopefully this helps and works for you too!

[@ahmarismith5924]

Every time I add an additional row of increases, my hat starts to ruffle up is this normal??

[@petitechiroptera1347]

This is typically indicative of too many stitches. You can correct this by either skipping a few increases, or restarting your project and carefully counting your stitches because chances are you might’ve missed some leading up to the increases.

[@SaigeTatum]

Mine did this too and I just went with it thinking it would work out. It did not! I’m wondering how we should increase beyond what she has already done if we need a larger size.

[@petitechiroptera1347]

@@SaigeTatum I’d recommend using a larger hook (seriously, it’s a world of difference), doing an increase row after every 2 regular rows if you’re struggling with ruffling, or starting with more stitches on the first row since this pattern uses less than normal (It’ll change your stitch count, but you should still be able to follow the same formula).

i wanted to add more rows before proceeding to row 6 so i tried it by repeating rows 4-5. but the edge of the circle became wavy :'( so i just proceeded with rep row 6 as said in the video for ref my head circumference measures 21.5in (55cm) after row 5 the diameter measured 4.5in instead of 5.5in, but still i'm hoping that if i just continue like the video then the natural curve inwards would still fit just right with my head (i predict that i might have to repeat row 6 a few more times than in the vid bc of the smaller diameter i got) i'll edit this comment if the method works (i posted this reply in response to another comment in this video)

[@katlificati0n]

i had the same issue (both with the initial size not fitting and with the wavy edges) so i tried something similar to row 4-5: ch3 & dc into same stitch // 2dc into middle of previous cluster of 3 2dc in next space 2dc into next space, repeat (from //) then in the next round, 3dc in each space as normal. it’s basically an increase but skipping one in between. it worked out for me (since i also had to account for my hair) so i hope this helps !! :)
