Easy Ribbed Beanie | Crochet Tutorial for Beginners

[@janicemorelock5791]

I'm 67 years old, learned something new today from you.... You are very talented and I can't wait to see more of your work....great job.

[@clairefair55]

Yeah, me too.😊 And just subscriber too.

[@crochetwracarolyn4741]

Same for me! I've been crocheting for 40-some years & didn't think I could learn anything new, but I just did! Can't wait to see more from you!! And I just subscribed, too!

[@barbvan960]

I'm 69 and happy to find

[@tomontiveros3366]

Ok, I thought I was the only one learning...I am a 62 yo grandpa and wanted to make something for the upcoming holiday season. Crocheting a beanie for my daughter sounded like a more precious gift than just going oiut and buying things for the family. Came across this video and the author showed it precisely the way I like it, step by step, visually showing me what she is doing, and actually making it so easy for me to follow. I am not a craftsman so this presentation was spot on and easy to follow. Thank you very much for providing this and now I am a subscriber also because I can see more projects for the family to receive and enjoy!!

That's great you can learn crochet at any time if life.Happy crocheting to you

row 1: chain 44 (or however long you need), insert st marker at the 8th st (for when to sc) row 2: chain 2 (turning chains) and hdc blo into 3rd chain from hook, hdc blo (36) until you have 8 st left (or meet marker), 8 sc blo row 3: chain 1, turn work, 8 sc blo, hdc blo until end of st repeat rows 2 and 3 for 52 rows (or as needed) remembering to always build hdc on top of hdc, and sc on top of sc completing: chain one and cut, sl knot to end connecting the hat: put ends together, insert hook onto on blo and the other full st, grab yarn to pull through both st's incorporate tail into work, doing sc's (insert, yo, yo pull through 2) leaving hook in, cut yarn and sl knot to end, tie both lose tails together. (DONT CUT THE TAILS) cinching the top: starting where tails are, go in-between each row with yarn and pull through tightly at the end. tie tight double knot with lose tails again (STILL DONT CUT TAILS) take tails and make x's with the tail pulling tight each time to secure top. double or triple knot and cut a little short, turn hat inside out, and done! ~ -- hopefully this helps, I do easier reading and then watching as well, just me 😅 let me know if I messed up any rows! thank you so much for this pattern! Its my new crochet obsession! lol! --

[@lindalord5182]

I love this stitch I crochet about 15 hats gave to away to my friend and the other’s going to the homeless shelters because winter is coming I worn one of mine and so soft warm thank you again for sharing ❤️

[@melsfarmstand]

how long did it take to complete 1 hat?

[@brindagovindan6925]

Your directions are SO clear even for a beginner. I have made SO many beanies for friends and family--thank you for sharing your knowledge and for teaching how to make this beanie so easy!

[@chiaramarzano3692]

I started crocheting thanks to your video! I made 4 beanies in different yarn types and colors and your tutorial made it possible. Definitely great for beginners

[@emlovesbread8565]

this was so helpful and easy to follow as a beginner and it’s the first beanie I’ve ever made- it looks actually good!! Thank you for your guidance and for being such a great teacher and explainer- I’m so excited about this

[@TheStreamrose]

You are an amazing communicator and teacher! Your videos are so very clear. The camera angles are close enough to see what you are doing and you move slowly enough the first few times you do something to make it easy to catch on. Your work is also very consistent but I can't get over how young you are and yet, such an incredible teacher! I am sincerely impressed. Thank you!

[@eliznuts]

you are so sweet 🥹 thank you!!!!

[@hnelson5609]

I made a scrappy yarn hat last year from your directions. A guy told me today it was cool. A guy, who noticed and I'm not a young thing, lol. I'm going to make black and neon next. Thank you for this video!!

[@lynnbrown9897]

Well done! Easy to follow for an early-crocheter. May I suggest that instead of cutting your yarn at the end of your last row that you just use your same working yarn to SC your seam together? I would eliminate the extra "sewing ends in" and also eliminate a knot at that spot. Just slip stitch the two sides together to connect them, chain 1, and then go into that same first stitch to begin your join. You can then use that same working yarn to do the closure stitching at the top. Just cut a long length after you get the seam finished, pull it through your last loop to knot off the seam, and then do the in and out weaving as you have shown. Hope that helps, and keep on crocheting, young lady! (PS I have 62 years under my belt [I was 12 when I taught myself] but always love watching for new approaches ;) ) These hats make a wonderful donation to your local cancer center for chemo patients or to your local children's services organization for foster kids.

Thank you for the tip! 🥰

[@hk-gn7cy]

This is the most helpful tutorial I have found as a beginner! You should make more, you're a great teacher! I feel like I can make anything as long as you teach it lol

[@christymasher]

I really like your video. I know a lot of people don't like music in the background. I am not one of those people. Your selection of music is so calm and soothing. You have a nice voice to go along with the beautiful music. May you have much success and I look forward to more of your videos. Thank you

[@horseblinderson4747]

If you use a scrap of yarn you can use that as a marker and either leave it for now, carry it move it up as you're going, and ultimately just pull it out when you're done. You can also use latch hook length ones as both spacers and or counters for when you have to start a really long chain and need to either count or keep your loops consistently right enough while also lose enough that it doesn't all pucker and bunch or just get way loose or tight at certain spots. I do that when I need to put something on perpendicular or float a chain of an end that I'll need to turn around and whatnot.

[@stormiflowers5302]

Hey Friend! Thank you so much for this video! I’ve only ever done simple blankets and haven’t strayed too far. But your video and instructions were crystal clear and I was able to complete a hat!! Thank you!!

@@naomycook2712 it took me about 6-7 hours, im still fairly new to crochet so im not that fast

[@katherinehaney9430]

I love the stripes. You make it seem so easy. I am gathering up easy, and useful crochet patters to put a hole in my stash box. I have been thinking beañies would be a way to go. There are several shelters near by that could pass them out this winter. Now I need to find a simple scarf pattern. I am sure a talented person is out there somewhere. I crochet (50)+ years but I have to have a pattern. I've tried but it doesn't work out for me. Thanks.

[@katieplummer]

Thanks for the tutorial! Just made a sage green beanie for my friend.

[@atoli_2293]

Thank you so much for the tutorial it took me some time to make it since i made some mistakes and had to start all over again but i finally finished it and i'm so happy ❤❤❤❤

[@lraston26]

New to your channel, so glad that I found you. Loved the weave in of colors to avoid all the knots! That’s a “Pro” move. Can’t wait to see what I create 🥰🥰🥰. Thank you and love your style and clarity. Truly gifted and blessed.

[@shyviolets]

I just finished and it came out great! Just in time for Christmas! I did purple and black, two rows of each. Only thing I struggled with was picking out all the dog hair lol

[@avo3900]

ive seen people use a lint roller on their work before

[@janaxoxo8174]

The comments pointed it out already but you truly are such a blessing for beginners ☺️ thank you for your work and the amazing video! I also have a question: if I wanted to use three colors, would I use the same technique as you’ve described or is there a better way to switch colors? ☺️✨

[@shanawilliams5350]

I did it! It's beautiful and easy! Thank you! Beanies have been an issue for me.😂

okay off topic but i love that we use the same hooks. ik a lot of people recommend more ergonomic hooks and whatever but i like my silly little wooden handled hooks, they look nice

[@rebeccaxx]

my bigass head needed 64 rows hahah but thank u for this easy beanie! I had to add extra rows when i sewed it together though, because it turned out to be too short

[@EyeServnonbutKorrok]

Thank you so much for this tutorial 😊 I made this for my dad for fathers day recently (it’s a different day in my country). I did it in three colours: brown, white, and beige. I did white every other row, and let the white follow along, but cutting off whenever a brown or beige row was finished. Weaving in the ends was very quick anyways! Because my father has a head circumference of around 60cm, I didn’t think the method you showed for cinching the top would work, so I ended up closing it with single crochet instead, resulting in four little horns on top. It still looked good, and he was very happy with the gift!

[@eve.bloom.9765]

HI! if you alternated colors every row, are you saying you just cut the yarn instead of continuing to carry the yarn across?

[@yazzybananas3106]

I messed up :( the side that is supposed to be on the outside I sowed to be the inside so my beanie looks a little funky. Atleast it's done for a first time project. I am proud but the perfectionist in me is killing me!

[@hichii3504]

Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to share this tutorial! Your camera angles are perfect and you are giving different alternatives for the design which is great! I started crocheting about 2 months ago and this is my first time crocheting a beanie. I'm trying to make a beanie which changes colours in each row. I am confused regarding the colour change process. When the row starts with sc we chain one and insert the book in the first loop however when the row starts with hdc we chain two is that right? Can someone explain, please?

Thank you been doing hats. Can't do a magic ring no matter how hard I try love your easy Bennie! Beautiful ❤️ great job

[@ilovemarkproksch]

Thank you so much for this video! I'm a beginner, and I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to do this because the only full project I'd completed before this was a small scarf; but your instructions were perfectly thorough and I was able to follow along and finish my own hat! I can't wait to see what content you produce in the future, and I admire your talent! :)

You’re so sweet 😭 thank you!

[@kalemsor]

ım writing from turkiye, ı want to just say youre amazing ıloveyou and thank ypu

[@tracy5459]

Thanks for this tutorial! I'm always amazed by how many different ways you can make a hat but this is one of my favourite techniques. Do you by any chance know how to make the colour change horizontal instead of vertical or is it not possible with this method?

[@eliznuts]

Yes! You could do the hat horizontally-your initial row of chains would need to be long enough to wrap around your head, and then just work rows vertically until it’s long enough to close at the crown of your head! Basically just the opposite of what I showed

[@terrytinydancer1052]

Your video is very well explained 🥰

[@idcadri]

hii i just finished making my beanie it turned out a little wonky but it's still pretty cute ! imma try making another one and I'm hoping it turns out better than my first one LOL

[@Artisane23]

Hi, very happy you show me how to make a beanie. Could you please also show how to make a slouchy beanie? Thank you so much! 💕✨

[@jamierichards671]

Hey love! So you'll just want to adjust the length of the starting chain to be longer, you can do this by measuring the string against your head like she did in the beginning, and then add maybe an inch of length or so to the starting chain so the overall beanie will be longer, giving you that slouch look. Hope this helps!

[@kgonzalez85]

Great video and explanation however if I wanted to make a 0/3 month, 6/9 months, toddler hat how would I know how many stitches to make that are half double and single

[@jamierichards671]

Its basically ~1/5 of the total number of stitches. So if your chain is like 20, you'd do 4 singles and 16 HD. Hope that helps!

[@SelenaYouTube-uh4wk]

I found a beautiful wool yarn, it’s thicker, but I have the hook for it. i’ve only made blankets and washcloths so far so I’m wondering if I could use this tutorial on thicker yarn?😊
