Perfect Crochet Slip Stitch Brim

[@williemayola]

Thank you so much for your instruction your very easy to follow I had a hard time following other people but your advice is the easiest for me so 😊

[@magdalenakowalski6856]

I enjoyed watching your brim video to any hat. I have been looking for something like that but yours is the one I needed. Thank you Marly

[@ruthiebabe3638]

That brim looks lovely. ❤

[@MarlyBird]

thank you

[@alicemoreno7886]

my grand dgt., 6 years old, wanted her beanie to have the back of the hat cover her neck this solved my problem ! Thanks love it and so simple

[@SherryBrubakerPollock]

Thank you for this tutorial. A friend asked me to make some more hunting hats for husband. Then, he chimed in, asking if I could add a brim this time. I said, "Sure," even though I didn't have a clue how to do it. Now, I know, and it's much easier than the short row knit version I tried to do on my own. :)

[@vandal280]

Love this pattern! I did it with BL singles instead of slip stitches and it worked just as well. I also did a modification where the first Stitch and the last Stitch of every row I go under both Loops instead of just the back Loop to make the edges more sturdy

[@MarlyBird]

Wonderful!

[@annweitoish8856]

Loved the way you explained Marlee your an awsome teacher and love watch you crochet. THSNK YOU

[@sandracardeiro6607]

Oh This is FANTASTIC! I'm working on knit cap patterns with the duplicate emboidery stitch added and this brim is PERFECT! Seeing as it resembles the knit stitch but adds a bit of dimension! I just need to figure out the stitch count for the sizes I'm making and the weight of yarn.. ♡♡♡♡ it!! A MILLIONS THANKS!!

[@colleenharrington7455]

This is SOOOOOO perfect, thank you so much!!! I've been looking FOREVER for a good brim to add to a hat and you did it!! I love your channel!!

[@vandai3535]

i appriciate your helpful attituade when ever you make your video. what an amazing teacher

[@foxfitnesswellnessnutritio6701]

I loved this brim, but I would to see how its sewn on successfully, as I had difficulty getting it right, eventually managed to get it done, just hope I get better at it the more I try it. Great tutorial

[@melloLL4722]

Thanks, I'd like to try this with the single crochet stitch.

[@babydreams60]

Omg that's awesome you got me to subscribe to you channel this is my first time seeing you tutorials and I love it so you got my atencion thank you very much God bless you and thank you for your time and effort to teach us...

[@CyberTrainer]

Wow!!! This video is AWESOME! I have been looking for a video on this topic that is adaptable to any type of hat and yarn weight. I plan to make another ponytail hat for my locs; but I wanted to add a brim; this is perfect. Now I have to figure out how to make a large whole (vertical and horizontal) in the back and I'll be good to go. Lol! Thanks so much for this excellent tutorial!

[@betheenvi]

I love the way you demonstrate.

[@nicolerobertson1798]

Marly I love the brim but I was wondering if you have a video showing how to do the rest of the him and her hat

[@TheMoniArt]

What a great tutorial! Excellent, concise instructions. Love your teaching style.

[@ahluutav]

This is a very helpful video! Easy to see and follow! I like the brim!

[@PurpleBleedingHeart]

You are an amazing teacher. Thank you so much

[@tammycarista7539]

I was just wondering if you could do a video for the whole hat thank you

[@umtimo6854]

That was very informative. I'm a huge fan of your work, Marly.

[@zsofiathompson7501]

Any chance there is a video for the hat? 😅

[@karenherndon8941]

I Love this video, you are such a good teacher 😁👍❣️

[@jennbauer9994]

I would love to see a video of the whole process to make the complete hat. I find the instructions on the site a little confusing as I’m not good learning from a written pattern.

[@deborahmalone387]

Great

[@LevAnsgar]

This video is quite enjoyable. It touches base for both experienced and beginner crocheters with smooth transitions and a fantastic hostess personality. The energy is refreshing. Keep up the good work! I smashed that LIKE and gave a subscribe!

[@Lovelylittlehijabi]

Listen, I know this hat came out three years ago but I just found this pattern because my father has been asking for three hats with a brim. I've crocheted hats with brims before but they weren't sturdy. I whipped the first one up and was like "oookaaayyyyy Marly, go with your bad self and this pattern" then I whipped up the other two and they LOVE their hats all the way in northern Minnesota IN the mountains near Canada. Then I made the mistake of posting a photo of me modeling the hats and now everyone is wanting them.....My sister, son, daughter in law....ME , I want one too. These brims are the best I've ever crocheted.

[@marianeculek3261]

LOVE seeing this in 3D!😉

[@bettydiggs2563]

Love THIS, I'm going to make a hat just to do the brim

[@PAnnB-dk5sg]

Thank you for another great tutorial.... I don't know how it happened, but I had to subscribe again.

[@tanziha]

Is there a video(not written instruction) on the hat itself? I'd love to make the entire thing. Just don't know how to read patters yet 😕

[@darcysmall9548]

All I can find are the written instructions

[@Hectanooga1]

Great demo Marly!!

[@salambahsoun2686]

Thanks a lot i like your demonstration you did well

[@doloresgarcia7263]

I love it! that is great brim and easy thank Marly

[@misdina56]

Great guide thank you ❤

[@MarlyBird]

Glad it was helpful!

[@shirleyfrazier4019]

Thank you sooo-much just what I've been looking for and you are a G-R-E-A-T TEACHER THANKS AGAIN

[@sofiacopado5579]

Wow thank you so much Marly, you made this so very easy for me! I've tried and tried to do this and just given up and now so simple! you are the brim queen ❤🌻

[@piecesofprecious]

I love the look of this brim. I printed off the his and hers messy bun hat pattern yesterday. I had to whip up the gauge square four times to match your gauge. The link above took me to a cowl pattern instead of the hat pattern. I really hope that you do make the video soon for the hat. I'm struggling like crazy to follow the directions. I guess I would consider myself an intermediate crocheter if I had to label my skills. I think the thing that makes it difficult for me to follow is that you don't use a stitch count. That might help if you could add that in there somehow. You do amazing work and I appreciate you sharing for free. Thanks for giving back to this world, Marly!

[@MarlyBird]

Hi. There are stitch counts for the brim and the body of the hat. Is there somewhere else I should add them? Just let me know and I will.

[@larkbird9247]

Hi, User; stitch counts are in the "Body of the Hat" section of the pattern. It's crocheted from the bottom up. start w/ 80 HDC foundation without brim; or 46 HDC foundation added onto the 34 brim stitches. I would, of course, tailor the stitch count to the size you need. I was confused looking at the pattern, too. It's a lovely hat and I'm looking forward to working it.

[@piecesofprecious]

Lark Bird thanks! your tip helped me figure out that step. Its really the beginning that has/had me confused. I figured it out. I finished a beautiful cranberry red hat. Now I want to start a new one and I'm scratching my head at the beginning steps again because I didn't make notes and didn't complete the hat as quickly as I wanted to. I suppose I'd better go back to the full online version instead of my printed copy. As I recall, that's how I finally figured it out the first time. This hat is truly lovely and I've had requests as I've been making this one. 😁

[@aminata2422]

Excellent video , many thanks

[@anitavanwyngaardt8980]

Hi Marly, thanks for the teachings. Can you please teach us how to make the snowcap? The brim cap with the mask.

[@theastewart6721]

Great tutorial Marly. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you use the knife hold, lol. Must be because of the bulky yarn. Cool brim!😊

[@eugeniabazankova4411]

Thank you, Marly. You are amazing. Love your lessons

[@MarlyBird]

[@michaelamilmerstadt1872]

Thank you so much for this tutorial. For Halloween I'll be making this hat to wear as a Starbucks barista, in a dark green color

[@dianadugenia9154]

You my dear are a wonderful teacher. Thank you for the crochet class.

[@karenlangmaid4669]

Is there a video on how the body of the hat is made? I am having trouble following the written directions. Love this brim!!!

[@kimho1545]

Marly, thank you so much. I love the way you teach, very detailed and clear. Please , please show us how to do the hat part also. I read the pattern and don't understand. For example: do the foundation double crochet? does it mean we will have to chain 46 chains and do the double crochet? Please help. !

[@MarlyBird]

Yes, I will do that. There are many people who have asked for the hat portion.

[@sherryhutchison4606]

Do you have a video for the hat part yet?

[@charshull7939]

Love the brim and got it made then went looking for the hat part but can't seem to find it. Is there a video for the hat?

[@scottish785]

Is this brim adjustable meaning can it be made longer more like a baseball cap brim as compared to a bike helmet brim or jockey's helmet brim as my wife wants a brim but she likes it longer more like ball cap. Also am brand new to Crochet not even started my first stitch yet. How do these style brims hold up. I need to watch your full video but is there something internal to give it stiffness as it grows in length or do they tend to hold up with just being worn and such as she wants it more like a ball cap style not dropping down into the eyes

[@oyedejitimothy4806]

wonderful work. marly bird u are a blessing

[@caleabsoccerboy]

Thanks where can I find patterns for brim and hat?

[@sarahhurtley913]

i'm working on this now! Love the style of it!

[@juanitabenson3419]

I reaaly liked the brim but not sure how to attach it to a hat do u have a video that shows step by step on how to do this thank you Juanita

[@MarlyBird]

I plan on doing a video to show how to do the actual Ribbed for Him and Her Hat to show you how. But in case you want to jump in, you will simply work into the front leg of the stitches you did to join the hat after the fold. :-)

[@juanitabenson3419]

Thank you

[@tammycarista7539]

i was just going to ask if you could do a video cant wait do you know when you will be doing it thank you

[@conchiriberavicent]

no me gusta por no hablar Español pues tendrían que traducir y si no no lo envíen .

[@heatherbennett5028]

have you made the joining video?

[@michaelamilmerstadt1872]

I will be using this type of brim hat pattern to make a visor headband for my Starbucks barista costume!

[@wilmapeterson4687]

Please show me how to make complete hat. So awesome.

[@roxanneparker9126]

Love it. Would Love to see how you make a hat on it. Thank you in advance Roxanne 💖

Can we make this crochet hat with cotton crochrt yarn?

[@belleboucles3646]

Do you have the pattern for the blue hat with brim please? It’s exactly what I was after. Thanks

[@themoog6377]

Hey all! I notice that many were also confused on how to start the 46-80 “foundation chain” when the brim is done when following the accompanying ribbed hat pattern shown in this video. I found a later video of a hat she does that uses the same foundation chain as in this pattern. ( kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4HCYZhnZb2Bgbs ). So when the brim is done, you need to chain 46 and sl st it to the other end of the brim to create the round THEN start the foundation double crochet that she refers to. This worked well for me and measured correctly.

[@KeKe8226]

You're the best, thank you. Funny I had the color already, so I'm make this hat!

[@MarlyBird]

+Deborah Moore yay! Be sure to share it with me!

[@heathercontois4501]

can you do this directly onto the hat or does it have to be seperate?

[@Hayidah12]

This tutorial is amazing I’ve always wondered how to make that kind of brim. I was going to experiment and make a baseball cap 🧢

[@wink1275]

This is great. Is there a knit version?

[@adriennefirster1135]

Can you please make a video on how to attach the brim to any beanie hat please

[@ThatLuluGirl]

Is there a video for continuing into the hat from the brim or connecting the brim to an already made hat?

[@JessicaHernandez-it9zi]

Can you make a tutorial on how to attach the brim to any hat make a separate beanie hat and then show how to attach the brim please

[@sprogella]

Yessss please!! 😊

[@micksan7052]

Thank you. You make it so easy to follow along. I know a lot of people are more visual so this will help them. I've made two so far, and they work out so nice. I love the brim. Marly, I LOVE the prototype hat in the pink. Will you be offering a pattern for that one too??

[@ThatLuluGirl]

If youre making a brimmed hat for a child do you use the same length for the brim? Or do you shorten it by a few inches? Is it like a play by feel? Should I just use my kids forehead as a reference to how long i should make the brim?

[@francescarpenter2193]

Marly I had no problem making the brim of the him and her hat. But however I'm having problems with the hat.

[@judyfortney96]

this is so nice l completed the brim with ease, but now l am stuck on what to do next ? the foundation row has me confused not sure if l have to ch 46 , if you have a video on how to attached the foundation please upload it so many of us can see what were doing wrong. thank you

[@amandaelsholz2318]

I just want to say; this is the best crochet tutorial I have ever seen! Great job :) Also checked out your website and it is now my new favorite!

[@MarlyBird]

Yay!!!!!

[@marianwalker4346]

I need instructions on how to add brim to [e-mail]

[@Wendy_Blank]

@Marly Bird, would it be possible to do the decrease with an insert pull, insert pull in sequence, 2 stitches and pull through the loops on the hook instead of skipping?

[@milliecoebett7696]

Got the brim made. Just need the hat pattern now. Where can I find it at ? Awesome video thanks 😊 need hat pattern!!!! 🥰

[@williammashtalier479]

I love this brim. Totally smashed that like button! Made me think of Markiplier. Can we get 1 billion likes?!

[@MarlyBird]

It could be where my kids got it from. I have no idea. Jojo just told me I had to say it and I’ve been saying it ever since. It makes my kid happy :)

Thank you so much!

[@MarlyBird]

You're welcome!

[@heathercontois4501]

I'm sorry, i have another question. I have also got a pattern that tells me to use plastic canvas to stiffen the brim. Can i use this pattern and still do the plastic canvas in the middle to stiffen it?

[@debkleinschmidt6765]

How do I add it to a hat that’s already made? This is an awesome pattern/video 💕

[@siidkhan4143]

I need a video of this pattern hat

[@cisheller6683]

I love the pink 'glitter' hat. I need to find that pattern; is it on ravelry? I need to make 3 for my granddaughters; 2 glittery and 1 not. Love this technique!!

[@llanisclark3910]

Fantastic tutorial thanks a lot for this

[@karenlanctot4698]

would it be 5 inches if I was doing a newborn baby hat?

[@MarlyBird]

No, because of the smaller size for a newborn hat you will want to made the brim much smaller.

[@phlishascohy44]

How does it hold up after being washed?

[@MarlyBird]

It’s been great for me.

[@jeenarnolda8371]

Wow so butterfly

[@jamaicagirl1496]

Please make a video on how to start the foundation around the bill of the cap 🧢 I find the written pattern but having a hard time with starting the 46-80 front post/back post part🤔
