I just saw this tutorial this morning and started it using some left over yarn. I just finished and I absolutely LOVE IT!!!! Will be making more ❤

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

I’m so glad it turned out nicely. Thank you for choosing one of my patterns.🥰

[@ruthannklos9649]

Thank you so much for your lovely tutorials .

[@IRISHBUTT]

Miss Littlejohn... I watched the video about 4-5 times more and looked at the written instructions, plus your note and I did it!!! I tend to crochet tight so it turned out perfect for my 11 year old granddaughter! I will post a photo on your page. Thank you for your patience with me. And to everyone else, please just watch the video a couple more times and look at the written instructions and it will become clear. She will LOVE this hat!! I have to make another for my DIL...

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

i'm so glad it worked out for you. I think I will make another video similiar to this pattern ( a whole hat) when I get a chance. A little slower. It was one of my first tutorials. I'm slowly getting better at it. Happy holidays to you and your family

[@Melanie-yj8hs]

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Christina Hadry thank u. The spiral is my favorite messy bun

[@CharliGirlMusic]

What a beautiful hat! I've been wanting to make some of these and this is such a simple yet pretty design. I've done the front and back post stitches in afghans and I can't wait to use it in this hat. Thank you for sharing!

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Shelly C. I'm so glad u like it. The front Post back post is my favorite border for everything lol

[@CharliGirlMusic]

I was happy to see it used as a border! Many patterns it is used as a basketweave, which is also pretty. I love it as a border!

Love that music in the background. Sets the tone & pace for working. Would you please tell me who the artist is?

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Martha Patterson it's actually a song that came with my editing program ☺ it is pretty up beat

[@daneilleboyd8348]

I think about spiral blankets do you think about spiral blankets or I try will make spiral blanket one day

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Daneille Boyd that would be so cool looking. I avoid Blankets lol. They take so long to make. I do have a baby shower gift I need to make. Maybe that calls for a spiral pattern😎

[@emansmom6739]

Absolutely love the hat! I cannot figure out how to do last two rows FPDC and BPDC? Link to help with these stitches below doesn't play. Please advise so I can finish my hat.

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

I hope this helps kzbin.info/www/bejne/iWWVkGdua62le7c

[@AliF-zx8sk]

Pro: love that your video was to the point. Con: instructions were not all that great. Video was not to clear. But I will still try to make this, seems easy enough.

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Thanks for trying out my pattern. I was told this one was pretty hard to follow. I made a updated version of this pattern that showed further detail kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4DNpI2pjrB1aa8

[@ellenfern7380]

Mine came out way to tight it's like a kids size so how do you make it bigger?

nice

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

thank you

[@sarahrougeau8709]

How do I start the as a regular beanie instead of a messy bun hole? I love this pattern. It worked up perfectly for my sister, but my mom down at have a ponytail.

[@tammycain7331]

There is a video titled Sea Shell hat or Divine hat on KZbin

[@patriciarogers6109]

I like the pattern very much but it would be so much better to slow down some so everybody can see which stitches you are going into. thank you

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Patricia Rogers I'm so sorry, sometimes my fingers get away from me.

[@megangiselle]

Click on the gear and change the speed of the video.

You can slow your phone down that's how I do it I can do it in Portuguese and Spanish and I don't know the language

[@magaldathar]

Is there a video for the matching scarf you're wearing? Thank you.

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Bekah L I do. It's made on a circular knitter. It's a hand crank knitting machine. I love it since I can't personally knit. kzbin.info/www/bejne/a57ZmqCMidiKfdU

[@erinnicole5748]

The part that deleted is like the one part I can't figure out. lol Am I FPDC and BPDC the SC we did, or the into the row underneath the SC? I'm so lost.

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

You are going to FPDC &BPDC in the SC you just completed. sorry for the confusion

[@erinnicole5748]

Littlejohn's Yarn Thank you so much for the reply! That's what I thought, but I wanted to be certain before I continued on. :) The hat has turned out nicely so far! Thanks for uploading this video!

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

I'm so glad it turned out nice. I would love to see the outcome. I have a small group online where everyone post pics of there work and talk yarn. I would love to see you there. facebook.com/groups/139574133317097/

[@brendaf6590]

I'm a little confused about the 10 rows. Do I increase one for each row. Mine is not getting wider 3rd row: FP, 3 dbl cr. All the way around 4th row: FP, 4 dbl cr " " " " 5th row FP, 5 dbl cr all the way around for each row? Please respond, asap... I'm working on it now

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

no you are not increasing at all . The stitches are probably being put in the wrong spot. You shouldn't be getting wider. Thats my fault for the poor video. I just remade this video. Its a much slower paced tutorial. You are able to see exactly where I put all stitches. same pattern kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4DNpI2pjrB1aa8

[@cjwestover4527]

I feel like I'm doing the same thing and end up with triple the stiches that the pattern calls for. Is there a way to slow the video down so I can see where she's crocheting?

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Cj Westover there's a settings button in KZbin. Look for the gear next to the timeline in the video

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Cj Westover I know what's happening. Look at video 2:55. Put the video into Slow speed. After u FpDc, 2Dc... You appear to skip a double crochet (but it's actually not as skip) you're putting a front Post in every single double crochet, which will lead to too many stitches

[@mindyla101]

If I am using a chunky yarn, I would need to do a smaller starting chain to keep the size the same, any advise of how many chains I should do in order to keep the pattern?

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Mindy Arreola I can't tell you exactly what it is. But you can get your own estimation. Complete your starting chain with worsted weight yarn, then measure how long it is. Then chain x amount of inches with the chunky yarn. I hope that makes sense.

[@mindyla101]

Littlejohn's Yarn yes, thank you, I have tried with ch 26, and used the same method of estimating that yo u just explained, but thanks I'll let you know how it turns out.. by the way, I love the pattern and video you made, mine turned out nice...Just have this other yarn in a pretty sparkle pink chunky size I wanted to try out...

[@jeanpaquette5634]

Jean Paquette u are in luck I have a pattern on my blog littlejohnsyarn.com/spiral-messy-bun-hat/

[@cmmartinez330]

Thank you for sharing, I need a size for a 4 year old so what hook sz do you recommend? Thank u in advance😊

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

I would suggest the same size hook . Start the pattern as normal. Just skip the one increase row. That will bring the hat down to size

[@cmmartinez330]

Littlejohn's Yarn Thank You 😊 By The way I just subscribed to your channel, can’t wait to see future projects😊

[@kellyboyce6442]

Do you slip stitchat the end of EVERY ROW?

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Slip st to join every row

[@kellyboyce6442]

@@LittlejohnsYarn Thank you. I'm trying this out now. Also it's looking flat, will that change after the 10rows? I'm new to crocheting, thank you for your help

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

@@kellyboyce6442 when it is looking flat you are adding too many stitches in each row. I made another video for this pattern that give clearer instructions. (Same pattern) kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4DNpI2pjrB1aa8

[@wiseegg4484]

Lovely pattern, but much to fast for me. TY!

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Sorry I know, I made a slower version of the video kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4DNpI2pjrB1aa8

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

This was one of my first videos I made. Alot of people said I moved along too fast. lol

[@IRISHBUTT]

This is a lovely hat and I would love to make it. BUT this video is WAY TOO FAST!!! And whoever is typing for you is getting it all wrong so it's very hard to follow. I was doing the CC with the volume way down so as not to disturb my sleeping hubby, but it was impossible to follow (in one sentence it said bitch instead of stitch!!). On your written instructions it says rows 3-12 to dc 3 in space after FPDC and then repeat from * to *... well there is no * in the pattern. AND if you did that in rows 3-12 you would end up with a lot more than 60 sts after row 12. In the written pattern it also does not say to ch3 at the beginning of row 4 instead of ch2 and so on. I believe you should re-do your video because I am not the only one stating it is WAY too fast, plus it is out of focus and hard to see. Thank you... from everyone.

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Sorry the video is to fast. fortunately there is a gear button (settings) to slow down the video I only have a $50 cell phone to record my video on and an editing app on my phone. It takes almost 8 hrs just to make & edit one video. Yotube automatically close captions for all my youtube video. to get a real professional close caption would cost hundreds of dollars per video. i'm just a normal person trying to provide a free service lol. For the pattern (dc 3 in sp after fpdc) is not an increase you have to be careful with your stitches. I hope that helps. so you shouldn't end up with a lot of stitches. i'm sorry you did not like the video

[@IRISHBUTT]

Littlejohn's Yarn is there a chance that you can edit the written pattern at least?

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

Most definately. I can do that. thank you for pointing it out

[@LittlejohnsYarn]

I took everyones advise and made a new, slower video, kzbin.info/www/bejne/Z4DNpI2pjrB1aa8

[@jackshepherd8991]

In this video you went too fast and wasn't explaining where the stitch was supposed to go.

You were so fast. Couldn't understand much
