I’m teaching myself to crochet at age 80 using YouTube videos. I’m looking for just small projects and this is one ill be doing today. Very well explain and shown, at least, in my limited viewpoint when it comes to crochet. Thank you so much. I can do this!

A truly excellent tutorial. So many say "easy" hat and they are far from it and fixing mistakes are difficult. This is perfection- thank you so much!

I started crochet a week ago with a woobles kit just to learn the basics. I did a few swatches of the basic stitches after that just to familiarize myself. That’s how much of a beginner I am, and I was able to make this hat! There were a couple stitches I think I messed up somewhere, so I’m giving it another go, but this tutorial is an absolute godsend. Thank you!

Trying to learn how to make baby hats for the hospital

[eileenclaeps]

Absolutely love this pattern. Especially how the binding is added on. I’ve always wonder if it could be done another way. You just showed me how to do it. Thank you so much

That is amazing. I have been crochet since I was 12. I'm 65 now and yet I just learned a new trick. I have never done the rib brim ever like you just showed me. See you can teach old dogs new tricks.
I am from now on going to make my hats like this.
Thank you.

I have spent countless hours going through videos. You are by far the easiest to follow. I’m in the middle of this project and find it very easy to follow. Thank you!!

Making this for my son (he’ll be born in November) I love it so cute thank you so much

[Tanacarroll]

Too cute. Love the brim! I use the chain two as well. Closes up the gap. Love the way you done the little brim. I make these and donate to Newborn Nurseries. Thanks.

Thank you for the extremely CLEAR instructions! I’m enjoying making this hat very much!

[pamroberts]

Thanks for the tutorial. I found it really helpful in making my first baby hat. I particularly liked that you showed exactly where to put the crochet hook and I was able to see clearly. Other crochet instructional videos are not detailed enough, and you can't actually see exactly where the hook is going. I look forward to making more of your pieces.

Amanda does such an excellent job with directions. So easy to follow. She is precise demonstrating each round. Love this video. So helpful. Thank you

[judydurham]

Loved it!- I followed the written pattern and made 3-6 mth one, as a pumpkin hat with green vines atop!

[roxychan]

Best tutorial out there for newbies. I just started doing crochet and this is my first project. This will truly benefit our preemies. Thank you so much!

[ginafusco]

You were an amazing teacher!! I was actually able to make this hat on my first try with your excellent guidance! Thank you so much!!

[joycelinkkila]

Thank you for being a great instructor. I'm a beginner. I made the newborn hat and it came out right the first time I made it. You are very easy to follow

[shainahassnoddin]

Wow!! I’m a beginner and I nailed this hat! You are a master educator! Thank you so much!! Also I found it hard to see exactly how you were feeding in the long string in the middle at first. I rewatched the video so many times until I finally figured out how you did it, maybe if the view on both sides were showing it could have helped also, but you did an awesome job explaining this video. Could you please make a underwear matching this hat pattern? My daughter will be due in 2 weeks and I would love to have the matching outfit for her.

[karensmendes]

A tutorial I was actually able to follow!! Thank you 😅

[elenarodriguez]

Thanks for the video! I just started crochet last week. Been working on a scarf and I really want to make this hat for my sister’s baby.

This pattern came just in time, our family is going to have 2 newborns early next year. Thank you 🙏
