So I taught myself how to crochet using You Tube a few months ago. Sometimes I feel like I am doing it all wrong, but things turn out (for the most part!). One thing I need to work on is making sure my gauge is correct!
I did spend a lot of time making hats and then taking them out. Hats are tricky! But I think I'm getting better.
Current works in progress: one more hat and scarf, then possibly attempting mittens and a new blanket for our apartment!
I'll leave you with pictures of what I've done so far and links to where I found the patterns:
To make the flowers I used
this pattern. I just didn't pull the magic circle tight to leave a hole big enough to fit a button through.
This hat was based on
this pattern, but remember that gauge thing I talked about earlier...yeah, when you actually use the right size yarn the pattern works amazing, but my yarn was way small, meaning i made quite a few hats before getting one that fit :)
I made this pattern up myself. Not too hard though :)
These cute monster hats came from
this cool blog, but I modified them a little bit (larger size and the teeth are crochet, not felt).
I'm also having a lot of trouble with sizing of hats. Every source I find has different information for head circumference and hat length. It's pretty frustrating. Any tips?
