Hello dear I just wanted to make you aware of something, I am currebtly doing this and I have checked/tryed and counted serveras times, because it didnt add up to the instruction. 😅🙈 so for after the 3:rd round when you should have 27 hdc and then end your 4th rund you say you should have 36 hdc. But if you do this 2 hdc and then skip one and do 1 hdc in the secound then it dosent become 36. So I just did this pantern and with out the skipping and then I have now 36hdc ^^.

[@RitaScarpace]

your tutorials are the only ones I've seen that don't frustrate me because I am a beginner.

[@MaisieandRuth]

That's great to know, Rita! 🤗👏 Enjoy the rest of your weekend 💝

[@chrisfiguera9704]

I recently found your KZbin channel and started watching. I love the way you teach and explain placement of stitch. I also enjoy your written patterns and have made several things, blankets, booties, hats and bonnets. Thank you so much for sharing your patterns and your skill at teaching.

[@MaisieandRuth]

You're so very welcome, Chris! 🥰 Thank you for your lovely feedback - I'm so pleased that you're enjoying my tutorials. Thanks also for your support and I hope that you enjoy working up more baby items (a new set will be coming very soon). Enjoy the rest of your day 💝

Worked with super bulky yarn and a 5 mm hook. Turns out great as well ❤ thanks for the great tutorial and blog post.

Thank you so much! I am glad that I was of some help for you 🥰 I wish you a wonderful weekend 💝

Hi Amanda. Love you. Your tutorials are very easy to follow. I love your work and the way you explain. God bless you

Made this with chunkier yarn for a bigger hat to fit an adult :) this is the first tutorial that has actually worked, Because your instructions are very clear! Thanks!

I just finished this hat it was my very first hat . Just love it ,thanks for doing the video i am a visual learner so easy to follow😊

[@katie-allen]

Thank you so much!! Made this and the matching booties for a baby shower. I was able to make both with only one skein of yarn total, and it was honestly so easy!! Can’t wait to give them to the parents-to-be tomorrow 🥰

[@kimmurphy3120]

Thanks! Cannot believe I actually made that beautiful hat! My ears are slightly wonky but my first grandchild won’t notice.

[@mothqueene1290]

Ahhh I love the way you do the ears! I’ve tried a few patterns for my baby, and this is the easiest/best looking by far 🥹🫶🏾 thank you so much!!

Hi! I absolutely love your work. I was wondering what would you recommend to do if I’m looking to make a bigger size. Like for a 8months old baby.

[@amandao-n6584]

Subscribed bc of how thorough and simple this project is!! Will definitely be trying it this weekend🤎

[@MaisieandRuth]

Thank you for the suggestion! And thanks for your lovely feedback... I'm so pleased you enjoyed this tutorial! 🥰

[@sandymount1973]

I had some baby yarn left over from a blanket and was looking for a new project. Coincidentally, I had exactly the same yarn left over as you are using here! Very cute hat. I will start the shoes soon. Easy to follow. Thank you!

[@MaisieandRuth]

That was lucky! 👏 Thank you, I'm glad that you like the design! I hope you enjoy making both the hat and booties 😘

[@sandymount1973]

Great easy pattern! Question though, how do I increase the size?

[@kristeenxtea]

such a good thorough tutorial PLEASE make another video for this hat with youth/adult sizes 😭😭😭😭🥺🥺🥺💙💙

[@marketadubnova7630]

I absolutely love this pattern! But just a little tip for people like me who don't like weaving in the ends. Before you start the second earflap finish the string. That way you will only have to weave in one end instead of three. ❤️

[@MaisieandRuth]

Thank you, Marketa! 🥰👏

[@elizabethbranthwaite7067]

Thank you so much for these gorgeous patterns. The booties turned out so lovely. My hat though turned out like a bowl with a flat top and I’m wondering what I did wrong 😂 I am a beginner

[@MaisieandRuth]

You're very welcome! 😃 I'm so pleased that you're happy with the booties 👏 Regarding the hat, are you counting your stitches at the end of each round? Is the gauge correct (it should measure a certain diameter after round 4 - see this in the free pattern): maisieandruth.com/crochet-baby-bear-beanie-free-pattern/ 💝

[@elizabethbranthwaite7067]

Thank you for your reply so quickly. I did measure and it was 4 inches however I don’t remember counting my stitches religiously 🤦🏼‍♀️🤦🏼‍♀️. I am going to try the hat again and this time I will count at the end of each row 😁😁

[@ArDeeMee]

@@elizabethbranthwaite7067 Hats also look like bowls, you likely did nothing wrong. It gets rounded by the wearer‘s round head, don‘t worry. On the upside, you can convert any hat pattern into a utensilo/yarn bowl/round bag by scaling up the yarn and hook and changing nothing else. 😃

[@TereskaLOL]

I'm absolutely thrilled, I love your videos. A complete beginner like me and for the first time everything is successful - shoes, hats and I would like a coat, but I'm still looking for courage. Your video tutorials are absolutely amazing and thank you so much for them. This may be the first time I've commented on a video to someone :D but I had to thank you.

[@MaisieandRuth]

Thank you so much, Terí! I really appreciate your feedback and I'm so pleased to hear that you're happy with the finished result! 👏 Please give the little cardie a go - it's quite a simple design and you can slow down the speed of the video even further if you like 💝

[@hannachandar7989]

Hi Maisie! I am thinking to make this for my baby however I was hoping I can make her a 1 yr old size so she can wear it for awhile(: Can you advise for a pattern of 6-9mths ? Would really appreciate it! Thank you Soo much for sharing your beautiful designs😍

[@aakankshathakre]

I made this hat for my 1-year-old. Take 10hdc for the first round. Round 2 increase. Round 3 increase. Round 4 increase. Now you have 40hdc. Make 6 rounds with 40hdc. Then go for earcuff. Hope this helps

[@serayagranger4729]

@@aakankshathakrewhat does it mean to increase?

[@aakankshathakre]

@serayagranger4729 1st round - 10hdc 2nd round - 2hdc * 10times 3rd round - (1hdc, 2hdc) * 10times 4th round - (1hdc, 1hdc, 2hdc) * 10times Now you will have 40hdc Continue for the next 6 rounds with 40hdc, followed by earcuffs.

[@katrinamalcolm8727]

Your a very great instructor. The hat is adorable, im going to try this. Thank you. 👍

[@purpleiceprincess]

oh my gosh!! I've just reached the end of the first earflap and I can't believe how easy and totally cute this is 😮😁 ive never made a hat before and wanted to make something for a baby shower on the 26th of this month. I just thought I'd try it with some random wool and its soooo adorable so far lol. I hope to do the booties too 💜 but I will definitely be getting some softer wool though. Thank you 💜
