hi teresa! is it possible to put a brim around the hat? if yes, any suggestions how?
Love the V stitct! So quick to make the beanie, scarf or throw and still oh so beautiful!
On rounds 5 through 12 do you need to chain four at the beginning of each round?
Hi
Is it possible you could do a tutorial for flared leg warmers?
@modgurl69 You are welcome!
lovely!!!!! thank you!
@MikesGirlJacki There is a link to the written instructions in the video details below the video.
iT WOULD BE really nice if the printed instructions could be avaliable also.
Thank you for taking the time to d these videos. Jacki
@SarSrik How nice of you! Thank you!
u r my hero…u have made me love crochet so much….May all your wishes come true…
@FIGGYWOMAN Sure you can. You will work more increase stitches the same way you worked the previous increase stitches.
Can you add more v [increase] stitches after the fifth/sixth row. The hat seems to be too small if I stop at round 4 or 5 [18 stitches made]?
@tjw1963 Thanks
@tjw1963 Thanks
How can I alternate from only double crochet stitches to V Stitches? One row each?
@tjw1963 Thanks

@Inpsydout You can mix in different stitches. You can use bulkier yarn but it will make the size a bit larger. With that in mind, you can compensate by working less increase stitches so the cap will come out closer to the size you are looking for.
Can stitches be mixed on the same hat?
Can i start for example making double crochets on the first two rounds, and then on the third start with v stitches? 
And, can this be done with bulkier thread, and what would the outcome be?

@theapauline18 You can use the larger hook at any time if you are making a blanket or a scarf. Any size hook can be used with some modification.
i want to ask why do we use different sizes of hooks…my sister bought me a set of hooks from red heart, 5 of them 3.75; 4.0; 5.0; 6.0 and 6.5….when do i use size 6.5? thanks
@tjw1963 Hmmm,thanks
@Bufurzone There are not set standards with crochet hook sizes so some may reflect different numbers.
@tjw1963 Really,but in your measurement chart video N was 10mm.I want to be sure wether all numbers are right,thanks for the information though!
@mansonlunchbox Hola Laura, agradezco el comentario.
@Bufurzone The cap is made with a different combination of stitches using the larger hook. It is a size N/9mm crochet hook.
SOOO CUTE! I’ve been looking for this! Thank you!
very thorough. thanks!
I ENJOY LISTENING TO YOUR VIDEOS, I THINK YOU ARE VERY CLEAR IN YOU TEACHINGS AND I APPRECIATE IT
I really appreciate watching the parts that are in slow-motion. And the color of the yarn helps too. Dark colored yarns make it difficult to see exactly what the needles are going. I thought you might want to know..
Thank you otherwise
@superkarategurlz Thank you
This is really cute, excellent job!
@maryam17197 The crochet cats are a lot of fun to make! Thank you!
nice
@baravail It is not necessary for the last row to look identical to the first row. You can work a final chain row if you want to or work a single crochet edging around the whole afghan.
I’ve hit a bit of a snag…. HOW do I finish this? Is the last row supposed to look like the first where the chain stitching is? If so, how? I’m still pretty novice at this, and I’m having trouble reverse doing it on my own. Or shall I leave the top as a normal row is done, without the extra chains? Thanks!!
@baravail Since there is a lot going on with the stitch, you may want to work a simple single crochet or reverse single crochet edging. I work the reverse single crochet on mine.
I’ve been using your videos for about a month now, and finally have signed up for YouTube properly because of it. Thank you so much for your videos, they are so helpful in creating new works via crochet that I’ve completely given up on my pattern book. I’ve been working on an abstract kitty afghan for my baby-to-be’s crib, and it looks fairly good, even though of course it isn’t as good as what you do! — Do you have border suggestions? Or should I leave it borderless?
@Want2bArchitect2 You are welcome!
Excellent videos. I started crocheting when I was 10, but only knew how to do single crochet. Your videos have broadened my crocheting skills. Thank you
@mstt2780 Anywhere from 15-20. They should be around 300 meters.
@LightTamara Thank you.
about how many things of yarn will it take to do this
you did a great job with video
what colors go well with raspberry color yarn? I am already using white and have vagated yarn with raspberry and petal pink combition.
Love art & poetry? Check out my channel
@crookedsports I suggest you crochet a chain and not worry about exact count. You can sew the extra chain in upon completion.
@5238752387 You are welcome!.
thank you you helped me understand how to change colors.
What could I crochet 150 or 155 stitches?
nice, at i can’t it !!
