Fedora / Cowboy / Cowgirl Hat Crochet Tutorial Part 1 of 3

[@danaoakes6822]

Wow woman, thank you. I have a friend that collects fedora hats so you make it tolerable to understand how to do this. Again thank you.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lesliefields711]

Girl, you rock with these hats. I can't wait to get started. Right now I really have to go to bed. Thank you for your jazzy hats.

[@loisantonelli9287]

Thanks for ballon tip😘😊🥰 ! 3 year olds are very hard to use as mannequins.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Lois Antonelli oh I bet. Happy crochet. Thank you for watching my videos

[@Susanesquevids]

Ok, the balloon idea is GENIUS! I make baby hats and I always have the hardest time getting the newborn size right. You are a lifesaver. :D

[@blackstonecat]

Thank you so much for doing this video, I have been looking everywhere for a cowgirl style hat to make!

[@gardenia921]

How sweet! Thank you for showing me how to close to holes in the first round! I am going to do this with all my projects! My slippers wont have a hole down the middle anymore. Thank you! Thank you!

[@ciciramirez1703]

Hahah good memories here I made hats like this in the late 19870's and 1980's , enjoyed your 3 vidoes , great happpy meomories , i made mine in doible yarn for a firmer material nd a larger hook, annd it was always different when I moved my brim abput. i truly enjoyed my hats. Great to see hats made by others and i used plastic wires tp ancor my hats of mrims where I choose to use them. Keep enjoying your craft👍🏻

[@terrace1]

hi Claire, I know you made this video couple years ago, but I'm so glad I found it. I specifically need a cowgirl hat pattern now. thank you for all your crochet wisdom. TH^up

[@boddokito]

OMG! You are so awesome!!! I being looking for this for a while today, just thought 'YOU TUBE' and here you are! THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!! I really hope you don't go away like some of the other ladies that crochet here on YT, love your tutorials!!!!!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi, you can use this pattern for a baby, you need to increase the top of the hat until its is just a bit smaller than the circumference, then continue with the sides of the hat

[@MyLuckyDucky1]

Thank you so much for all your video tutorials i have made 3 already this is my next one to make i love the way you explain the diffrence in he wool for us Aussies thank you so much.

[@thelonerabbit1537]

I really enjoy your videos. I can easily listen and watch while doing other things and still know exactly what you are doing! I love your tips and your ability to explain things that crocheters learn after many years of triil and error. Because lets face it. . . its a lot of trial and error! which all leads to learning :)

[@333DFG]

We call them hair grips over here in the UK. I hope you don't give up making your crochet with 8ply because for me it is like our DK, which is 8ply.

[@Lowbudget1000]

oh my goodness! This is so cute. I am working on so many crochet projects at once. I want to put those down and start this one. LOL!

[@ashleyyoung9401]

I found this part interesting and rather simple but I wanted to mention that also not just hair bands could be used but paper clips could be used to they're not as sharp as pins and they can be folded or unfolded if necessary

[@CrochetwithClare]

Great idea !

[@rydiecyj]

OMGness!!!! Great tutorial...but you knew that already!! LOL!

[@shezhas4580]

[@dianawhatley9285]

[@nlhlnh]

[@CrochetwithClare]

You are very welcome, thank you for watching

[@MelodyCupit]

Oooo my goodness Clare! I love love love this hat! Thanks so much!!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hi there, I have no idea how to make a dress sorry , they do look very cool though thanks for watching my videos

[@CAPSandNOOSES]

I am a fan, I think your talent for creating is amazing and thank you for sharing it with the world. I too would love to have a written pattern. I know it is hard enough to create it, but then to write it down in pattern format is the worst of it, but PLEASE could you post the pattern. I have such a bad memory and so I print everything place it in a binder and then when I get stuck I refer back to tutorials.

[@vntt79]

I like your clip. I will try to crochet it for my brother. Thanks so much.

[@Ingridv8x]

Hi, I would like to make a 'manly' one as a present. Can you tell me what sort of paracord? When I looked it up it said it was good for setting up tents!!

[@TaraKoch]

If you make the brim shorter and turn up the back you can also make a trilby:).

[@woodenshoelane]

You are very talented, this fedora is groovy baby! : )

[@CrochetwithClare]

@honeyandstar ooh stop it ! I am so glad that you love the video .. Gona be such a cute pressie !

[@scredbird]

This looks great!

[@viola23dlt]

Awesome! This will be my next project! Thanks

[@Nicholaspaoluccibenn]

your voice is so relaxing lol

[@CrochetwithClare]

I would love to see a photo when you are finished :)

[@333DFG]

Over here in the UK G is a 4mm.

[@CrochetwithClare]

@specialCraftsandmore the same size hook, you just need to make less rows, I tell you how to make it a different size

[@Ingridv8x]

How kind! Have emailed for a copy. Many thanks to Brittany Bechard. Although I will still be following Clare's videos (I'm a beginner), it might be nice when you want to work with some music in the background. A nice little addage to this AMAZINGLY good site!

[@CrochetwithClare]

@jujuelamoura HI there you will make less increase rounds, (the oval part will be smaller) make the oval so that the mesurement is just a smidge smaller than the baby head and then continue on with the pattern

[@jujuelamoura]

the hat looks great, but i really would luv to make one for my baby, but i'm not sure about how i could do that, cause it looks like the one that u made is more adult size, is it possible to show or reply thanks jana

[@HookoneChaintwo]

I can't wait to make this Thanks bobwilson123

[@carjaf]

Can you make a "rag rug" with this start of this project? It reminds me of that! This is adorable, by the way!!

[@CrochetwithClare]

@boddokito Yur welcome, Your welcome ! I wont disappear any time soon :)

[@maqsizu]

WONDERFUL, Wonderful ! THANK YOU !

[@anneaires3984]

Is there a written pattern for this one? Checked out your website and don't see a download for this hat, you have really great patterns, thanks much!

[@TheCerealluvr]

Your videos are so pro! Awesome stuff! You really do have like a plethora of patterns and ideas. Quick question? Do you have a pattern for a crochet dress? I've been wanting another one (got one second hand 2 years ago and can't find one like it). It would be so amazing to make my own!

[@Mathineehandmade]

thank you for your share

[@CrochetwithClare]

@mrssweet01 HI there you will make less increase rounds, (the oval part will be smaller) make the oval so that the mesurement is just a smidge smaller than the baby head and then continue on with the pattern

[@tjacksonfrazier]

Love it! Can't wait to try to make it:)

[@auraturnea5050]

Thank you,💞🌹

[@CrochetwithClare]

@tjkoch88 Yes that was the angle i was going for.. maybe 1 or 2 less rows

[@2979andy]

im going to try this for my daughter, thanks :)

[@GixxerRider101]

Hi I have question if I use 2 strands of worsted weight yarn will I still use a 4.5 hook? Also I would like to add a strip before the brim, where should I start and stop at? Thank you!

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hello GixxerRider101 I would use 1 strand of worsted weight yarn and the 4.5mm hook, if you wanted to use the 2 strands i would use a 5.5mm or 6mm hook. as long as you get tight tension you are good to go I would stop short of the length you are after, add the strip and then continue with the brim

[@carjaf]

Never mind answering.....you answered it in your video...thanks :)

[@CrochetwithClare]

@CatsPurrfect This was the first time i have ever done a oval shape lol thats why it went a little wavy you could probably do a row of 1 sc every second row

[@CrochetwithClare]

HI there, sorry but I do not have the written pattern for this yet :(

[@mjperfume1523]

Ok my measures 21inches., so when does the hat start to get so it looks like a cap? Do I still increase or just do single crochets. I made it to fit a 25 inch head so took out a couple of Rds . Thanks Clare Cathrin I don't like putting my pictures on fb.

[@specialCraftsandmore]

what size hook would I use for 3-6 months

[@CrochetwithClare]

@jujuelamoura you will make less increase rounds :)

[@jwatley313]

So cool love that color by at

[@CrochetwithClare]

not yet sorry :(

[@CrochetwithClare]

@TheBetheaFamily Sorry But I dont know how to make that style :(

[@marialuisagonzaga1329]

[@MrsHoneybunny32]

[@smilejamaican]

[@SuperDivatude]

ok I've done a few of your projects but being a south paw, I'm really struggling. Could you do this same tutorial for a lefty???

[@CrochetwithClare]

SuperDivatude Hi, I am sorry that I do not do lefty tutorials.

[@SuperDivatude]

***** omg... That would be GREAT!!! I sooo appreciate it. What does your schedulel look like for this up coming weekend?

[@SuperDivatude]

+YIMI,LLC Hello there stranger... I must apologize for being gone for a while as I was taking care of family affairs after my grandfather's passing. I will be back on my hookery (a lil crochet humor) in the next two weeks, I'm taking some me time and some time to restock. All the stress had me getting my crochet game on! Hope this finds you well have a good one.

[@denasewell]

thanks so much !Another great tutorial !You Rock !If you want me to send you yarn from the US I would be more than happy to .God knows you have given everyone countless super awesome tutorials it is the least I could do .Please message me with your color preference and a place to mail it !

[@dalestrickland9154]

Hi there. I am in the US and my hook sizes are only even numbers, i.e. G hook is 4.0 mm and H hook is 5.0 mm, so if I am using size 4 worsted weight yarn, would I use only one strand and which hook? Thanks.

[@CrochetwithClare]

+Dale Strickland Hello, I would use a hook to give you reallly tight tension, I think a G hook would do that with worsted weight yarn

[@marynovacek]

I'm in the US. I really enjoy all your videos and have made several bags and a few other things. I was wondering if you could use the Sugar 'n Cream cotton yarn? It is listed as Medium #4. How many yards of yarn are in your skeins? If I can use the cotton yarn I need an idea of how much I need ti get. Thanks in advance and for all your tutorials.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Mary Novacek Hello, to tell you the truth i am not sure if the cotton yarn will work for this project, I have only used the acrylic yarn. You will need tight tension with any yarn that you use for this hat

[@marynovacek]

Ok, thanks very much. I did try it with cotton but it was very difficult to work with and after several attempts I gave up. I really love your way of teaching. I am working on coasters and placemats at the moment and enjoying doing them. Thanks again.

[@annetteannette7020]

bobwilson123 hi do you have a tutorial for a baby (infant) fedora hat, if yes where may I find it? TY in advance

[@jazzyblack01]

Great tutorial. I'm watching first like you suggested. Made one but I made my top different than this.

[@sadewolf8265]

What weight of yarn would you suggest for only using one ball of yarn?

[@CrochetwithClare]

You could use any weight yarn, but if you want it to be nice and thick then I would go with a worsted weight yarn.

[@aubreyswife]

Do you sell your patterns for the fedora.

[@susanjosephson6354]

Thanks! Was it difficult to make?

[@CrochetwithClare]

It does take some measuring and concentration - I would rate it as a intermediate project

[@mrssweet01]

Haw can we make a baby cow girl hat?

[@susanhageman7019]

Could I get the pattern. Sister lives in Texas and I live in Wisconsin. She is on a ranch and she loved the cowboy hat of yarn . I am a beginner ammiture .

[@um_wil]

Can I pay you to make me two light pink fedoras? I want these for an upcoming Lady Gaga concert with my girlfriend. And if you can, make the brim a little longer?

[@CrochetwithClare]

hi, i do not make crocheted items for money. i do not have a crochet for money business.

[@raissafadhila6533]

In spanish please?

[@CrochetwithClare]

Sorry I can not speak Spanish

[@raissafadhila6533]

¡Qué pena!

[@mjperfume1523]

Meant to say mine

[@PamelaSConleyArtist]

I'd still love a written pattern, esp one with a diagram. We keep hoping but you're very busy so it probably won't happen. I'm sure you've lost interest in an old project.

[@CrochetwithClare]

Hello Pamela Conley TO tel you the truth, its just finding the spare time to write up the old patterns....I seem to have less and of it :(

[@PamelaSConleyArtist]

bobwilson123 Maybe when I watch the video, I'll write down the steps in my own pattern. I work off of written directions better, diagrams even better. Love your designs.
