I gave this a try tonight and it's pretty fun! I'm trying to write down all the steps (because I'm one of those weirdos who does better with written patterns LOL). Thank you Margaret!

[@sheepishlysharing]

This is just a basic beanie, Donna. If you find a pattern for a half-double crochet basic beanie, you can just use that and sub the camel stitch and tapered ending!

[@donnasdigressions]

@@sheepishlysharing Thanks so much! I just wrote down the increases needed, that was where I was getting a bit confused. My beanie is half finished already and it looks so nice! It's dark green and white and looks like a peppermint swirl. 😃

[@judypetett888]

Take it from this old teacher; you are a great teacher, fulfilling and sharing your God-given talent and knowledge. Thanks! So good seeing you. I always get excited when you post a new video.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Awww... thank you, Judy, but this old teacher is kicking herself for the blurs in this video when I know better. I even reshot several clips after the entire hat was finished because the blur was so bad! Ugh.

[@judypetett888]

@@sheepishlysharing Well, I think it was very professionally done.

[@heidicook2395]

Thank you for showing this technique. I've never tried a two color hat. I think I will now and I will add a brim to protect my eyes from the light.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Wonderful! I love customization!

[@denisehoffmann5006]

Since you introduced the simple start method, it is my preferred method. Going to give this a try 🤗

[@sheepishlysharing]

I love that simple start, too! No knot and works for everything!

Thank you for the hat tutorial, I’ll definitely be making quite a few hats with this pattern.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Glad you liked it! Simple and fun!

[@VernaBradshaw]

Love your tutorials. I will definitely come back to this if I make a spiral hat. Thank you so much 😊

[@sheepishlysharing]

Please do! Glad you liked it, Verna!

[@rosemariepagano5340]

Hi Margaret! Thanks so much for this tutorial. When I first saw these beautiful and unique hats I knew I had to make one. I've been crocheting and knitting for over 50 years and now don't have much patience for color work. This pattern was no problem at all, in fact, it was so much fun to do. The Red Heart Super saver yarn I used softened up nicely after I washed it. Your hat chart is very helpful and I appreciate all you do. God bless you!

[@sheepishlysharing]

You are so welcome, Rosemarie! It IS a simple and fun little hat!

[@susangriebel9903]

You are a gifted teacher! Thank you for extra attention on the details. Years ago I taught myself how to crochet. It’s fun to finally have a crochet friend. Blessings on your hobbies.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Thank you, Susan! Glad my teaching style aligns with your learning style!

Have fun, Di Di!

Thank you so much for taking the time and patience to explain this pattern so clearly. I have seen coasters and potholders made with this pattern and have always shied away from them. Now I’m ready to dive in.

Absolutely! Future school? Sounds exciting!

@@sheepishlysharing well Ohio State for one, but I wasn’t going to mention that 😬 and my daughter’s elementary school, my family in Kentucky are huge UK basketball fans. Different men in my life all love different NFL teams. I want to make a lot of these. They are different & have just enough to not be plain.

Thanks, Daphne!

This was such a great video. I appreciate the amount of times you repeated so I didn’t have to stop and replay. This almost made me want to put down my knitting and crochet a hat, but this year I’ve been only knitting 1or 2 things until done and using up my stash.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Oooo..... good for you, Elise! Finish what your start and use what you have!!

Thank you so much for posting this tutorial! You did a great job of explaing both the stitch and the two color technique. I am going to make some beanies in this pattern for sure.

[@dianeboileau2026]

Thank you Margaret for this tutorial! You've explained it in a way that even I can understand! Lol. I've been in the mood lately to make hats so once I've finished the one I'm working on I will definitely try this one. I do really struggle with a line in the back of a hat and I can never get it so that its straight up and down. This hat you did will solve that problem!

[@sheepishlysharing]

Yeah... I'm going to avoid a seam if at all possible. I CAN make a better seam but I just don't like seams at all!!

[@reneegencur2469]

[@tamidietz3326]

Love the pattern! Working on one for my nephew who is 14 and can never find hats that are large enough for his over sized head. I did increase to 7.5 inches for crown and it looks like it will fit a giant. Hoping it starts to for the actual sides of the hat soon. Have done 6 rounds so far and it is barely curving. Thank you for the pattern and great tutorial!

[@sheepishlysharing]

Hope it turned out ok, Tami!!

[@TalesFromtheCraftRoom]

Thank you for the inspiration. I’ve made 2 and 3 color spiral’s before using a different way of starting them. Yours seems easier. I’m going to make some 2 color spiral hats using the crochet ribbed hat pattern (not camel stitch) I adapted to in the round because I too am not fond of the join.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Sounds wonderful! I love a creative mind!

I love all your ‘different’ albeit challenging for me patterns. I’ve certainly learned a great many new skills. Thank you!🦋. I’m still having issues with sizing even with your chart…obviously it’s a me issue🥴

[@sheepishlysharing]

Hmmm.... surely we can solve that sizing problem, Katz. Technically, if you measure your work based on the charts, I can't imagine how it wouldn't work. If you have time, tell me what you're observing!

[@deecochrane2340]

Hi. Just luv the way you teach. It works. Do you have your way of casting on stitches for knitting.

[@sheepishlysharing]

Thanks, Dee! Knitting is different. I do like a lot of people and just don’t knot. Hard to explain with words.

[@deecochrane2340]

@@sheepishlysharing what do u think of either doing knitted cast on or the short tail thumb cast on

[@KJF1617]

Like this pattern. Does this pattern take more yarn than say, a regular hdc hat?

[@sheepishlysharing]

Not really. Crocheting in the 3rd loop WILL shorten the stitch a bit but not enough to make a noticeable difference.

[@nryane]

When making a three-colored hat, would you start with 12 stitches? That way, each yarn would have 4 stitches on the first row and then, with the increases, the stitch count would total 24 in the second row, 36 in the third row, 48 in the 4th row, 60 in the 5th row, etc. Is that correct?

[@sheepishlysharing]

Correct!

[@jq7136]

Thank you for this but I can’t figure out a problem I’m having and I specifically counted and double checked to make sure I had the right number between every double stitch (2HDC in one stitch) and yet when I’m starting on the sixth or seventh row I don’t have enough stitches left after the last double stitches up to the marker clip- like one row I’m on now I’m supposed to have five and there’s only three sts before the marker, and the previous row there was one short, so it’s like I didn’t count right but I know I counted right so I can’t figure out why. 🥺

[@sheepishlysharing]

It's so hard to figure out what's going on with words (which is probably why we all enjoy KZbin videos so much) so I'm not able to answer! There are some troubleshooting tips in this video that may help you figure out what's going on: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mmXQoWmulJqHY80
