I make a loop and keep the working thread in back so when I yarn over and bring the thread through the loop it creates my first chain. I pull this first chain snug and dont count it a stitch unless...

I made quite a few hats by doing a sc in the bak loop only; going back an forth and it ends up looking like a knit rib stitch. When you do a 1/2 dc in the back loops it looks eev more so.

"Rippit...Rippit" Get the connection. A frog makes the sound "ribit..ribit> (LOL)

It might help if you posted a picture of the hat.

I have found that you never really make much money on your handmade items, if you factor in the cost of materials and the time it takes to make it. You will not even come out with a minimum wage.

You don't say if you want a pullover or button down. As far as the length, you can adjust that on your own. If you would like it longer just crochety more or less until you reach the armhole. ...

I have used grannies to make eyeglass cases (lined with felt hand stitched in place). I put 2 grannies together for each side then I crochet a border around each rectangle until I get the size I...

It's just her method of creating the magic circle. I have been using the magic circle to start all my granny squares. It eliminates the hole you make when you crochet in a circle of a few chains.

Thanks ...pretty purse.

Cute a pattern.

I don't think Pinterest explains the process too well for people who are a little technically-challenged. I have a Pinterest account now for a little while. I do not have many boards or too many...

No, it could not have meant the round earlier as that was already about 7 inches earlier. As you suggested, a mark round was left out. I winged it and it seems to look about right. I tried to...

Great idea.

Whom did you purchase the pattern from? Was it from an original Disney site" Or was it a Disney look-alike on a site like Etsy? If it is a a Disney trademarked pattern I'm not sure you are allowed...

If you are using a pattern for the hat and it's coming out too big, then it might be best to use a smaller hook.

It's too many years to count. I was in elementary school and My mother taught me to knit, crochet and sew.

Thanks. I've gotten several patterns from Bev's Country Cottage.
