[@brookewears9928]

I love this so much! I am wondering if there is a way to do this without the plastic ring? Ordered some but waiting for them to come but want to make this so bad.

[@nanascraftyhome]

So glad you like it! I haven't tried this but I am wondering if instead of working over a plastic ring you could go ahead and chain 10 or so chains at the point you would have been working around the ring and then just continue working single crochet stitches around to complete the hat. Then you could hang the towel from the ring of chains you made. I hope that works out for you! 🌸😊

[@lindamurray5503]

I just made my first one. Have you ever made it in a half double crochet??

[@nanascraftyhome]

I have not made in half double crochet that would certainly be something to try as it would grow a bit faster. You would just need to make an adjustment on the round you are placing the ring in the hat. If you try it I would love to hear how it goes! 😊💕

Whet did you get that jumbo stitch marker? I can't seem to find that style in jumbo.

Hi I used shower curtain rings from the dollar store. Worked great!

[@KJC4321]

New on your channel... great video ! Thank very much Do you have other crochet kitchen towels (buttonless) or kitchen items

[@nanascraftyhome]

Thank you - so glad you found it helpful! Currently I have two free dish cloth patterns on my blog but no other kitchen towels. However, I do have some in the design stage! 😊

[@gloriajean143]

Please be so kind as to why the increase at beginning of round then when I put his nose on the front it doesn’t make a curve up what am I doing wrong

[@nanascraftyhome]

Gloria - happy to help! I put the increases at the beginning of the rounds in order to make the pattern easier to follow. However, you could certainly spread those increases out if you desired to. In order to get the front of the hat to curve up over the nose you need to sew the nose to the underneath side of the hat. So the nose sits just under the inside of the hat curving it over the top of the nose. I hope that helps. I do have a photo on the written instructions that may help you here: nanascraftyhome.com/crochet-gnome-towel-topper-free-pattern/ I hope that helps! 💕

[@dolliestaley9222]

Love the video, just need to explain how to hang it.

[@nanascraftyhome]

You would hang the top of the hat over your handle pull the loop down over the bar and then button. You can see photos of that on my blog here: nanascraftyhome.com/crochet-gnome-towel-topper-free-pattern/ I hope that helps!

[@lindalee6538]

Why when you finish round 38 and are getting ready to work round 39 with color B, do you have two loops of color A on your hook?

[@nanascraftyhome]

Great question! When I work a color change I will work the last portion of the previous stitch with the new color. So for a single crochet stitch I would yarn over with the new color and pull through the last two loops to complete the sc stitch. I am then ready to begin working with the new color yarn for the next stitch. I hope that helps🌸💕

[@lindalee6538]

@nanascraftyhome Yes, thank you. I kinda caught something on the video, but it wasn't clear to me. This explains it better.

[@xenastepsteppler9275]

I must be using a tighter stitch as at 26 stitches mine isn't long enough to go over oven handle. Would you please give me a measurement to go by.

She placed the button 4.5” down. So I’d say that’s a pretty good measurement. I can’t wait to try this. How’d yours turn out? 🤗
