  1. 0:00today we're making a bucket hat you can
  2. 0:02make it any size you want using any yarn
  3. 0:05you want and I'll be making mine a small
  4. 0:08medium which will fit about a 50 to 55
  5. 0:11CM head and in the description below you
  6. 0:13can find the principal pattern the fre
  7. 0:16pre-written pattern and the materials I
  8. 0:18use for this project I used about 70 G
  9. 0:22of medium weight yarn and this is Red
  10. 0:25Heart Super Saver brushed in the color
  11. 0:28cream and here's the information on the
  12. 0:30label and you can use any yarn you want
  13. 0:33but if you want to follow my sizing
  14. 0:34guide then you should use a medium we
  15. 0:36yarn and also be using a 5 1/2 mm hook
  16. 0:40just what's recommended on the yarn
  17. 0:42label some scissors a yarn needle and a
  18. 0:45measuring tape is optional first we're
  19. 0:48going to start with the top of the hat
  20. 0:51and for this part you can start with a
  21. 0:53magic ring if you want but I'll be
  22. 0:55showing you a different method we're
  23. 0:57going to make a slip knot and to make a
  24. 1:00slip knot hold the yarn over your hand
  25. 1:02with the tail end at the
  26. 1:04bottom then hold the yarn with your
  27. 1:07thumb and make sure you have about this
  28. 1:09long under your thumb grab the top and
  29. 1:14wrap it around two fingers to form an X
  30. 1:18and then you can hold it with your
  31. 1:19pinky and then with your hook we're
  32. 1:21going to go under one side of the
  33. 1:23X and then over and grab the other side
  34. 1:28and then pull it through
  35. 1:30remove your
  36. 1:31fingers and tighten the
  37. 1:35knot and then we're going to chain four
  38. 1:38into chain yarn over and pull through
  39. 1:42the loop on your
  40. 1:45hook again yarn over and pull
  41. 1:50through and then do two more for a total
  42. 1:53of
  43. 1:56four and once we have four chains we're
  44. 1:59going to slip stitch to the first chain
  45. 2:01that we
  46. 2:02made so we're going to go over through
  47. 2:06the V of this chain and we're also going
  48. 2:09to go under the loop in the
  49. 2:12back so now we have the top Loop of the
  50. 2:14v in the back Loop of the
  51. 2:17chain and we're going to yarn over and
  52. 2:21pull
  53. 2:24through and then pull through the loop
  54. 2:27on our hook
  55. 2:31and now we should have this ring for us
  56. 2:33to work
  57. 2:34into and now we can start round one and
  58. 2:38to start every single new round we're
  59. 2:40going to chain
  60. 2:46two and then we're going to do 12 double
  61. 2:49crochets into this
  62. 2:51ring so to do a double crochet yarn
  63. 2:55over and then insert your hook into this
  64. 2:58ring
  65. 3:01just through the center then yarn over
  66. 3:05pull through and now we should have
  67. 3:07three loops on our hook we're going to
  68. 3:09yarn over pull through two
  69. 3:12Loops yarn over pull through two
  70. 3:15Loops so that's our first double crochet
  71. 3:18and again to do another double crochet
  72. 3:20we're going to yarn over insert our hook
  73. 3:23back into that
  74. 3:25ring yarn over pull through yarn over
  75. 3:29pull through two yarn over pull through
  76. 3:33two so now we have two double crochets
  77. 3:36and we're going to do that 10 more times
  78. 3:38until we have a total of 12 double
  79. 3:48crochets so once you have a lot of
  80. 3:51double crochets in your ring it might
  81. 3:54get hard to add more so you can just
  82. 3:55scoot them over to the right
  83. 4:00and then you have more space to add your
  84. 4:02last double
  85. 4:13crochets and now I have 12 double
  86. 4:16crochets and you can count them using
  87. 4:18the v's at the top of each double
  88. 4:22crochet or by counting the
  89. 4:25posts so there's one post and then a
  90. 4:29second post
  91. 4:30and then there should be 12 of them and
  92. 4:33then we're going to grab the loose end
  93. 4:36that we left in the very beginning and
  94. 4:38pull on it to tighten the
  95. 4:43center and then at the end of every
  96. 4:46single round we're going to do a slip
  97. 4:48stitch to close the round so first we're
  98. 4:51going to find the very first double
  99. 4:52crochet that we made this round which is
  100. 4:56over
  101. 4:57here and you can see our chain two that
  102. 5:00we made and this one does not count as a
  103. 5:03double crochet we're going to look for
  104. 5:05the post to the left of it right here
  105. 5:08and then at the top you can see the V so
  106. 5:11we're going to go under the
  107. 5:13V of that first Stitch then yarn over
  108. 5:17pull through and pull through the loop
  109. 5:20on our hook and
  110. 5:23tighten and now our first round is
  111. 5:26finished now for our second round again
  112. 5:30every single round we're going to start
  113. 5:32with a chain
  114. 5:36two and for the second round we're going
  115. 5:39to do an increase in every single stitch
  116. 5:42so an increase is just two stitches into
  117. 5:46one stitch so our first Stitch is that
  118. 5:49same Stitch that we just slip stitched
  119. 5:51to which is right here at the base of
  120. 5:54our two chains and first we're going to
  121. 5:56do a double crochet into this Stitch so
  122. 5:59go back under that V and do a double
  123. 6:06crochet and then since we're doing an
  124. 6:08increase in every Stitch we're going to
  125. 6:10put our second double crochet back into
  126. 6:13that same
  127. 6:16Stitch then we're going to move on to
  128. 6:18the next Stitch which is this one here
  129. 6:21you can see the next
  130. 6:23V and in this one we're going to do our
  131. 6:26first double crochet
  132. 6:31and then we'll do our second double
  133. 6:33crochet back into that same
  134. 6:37Stitch and we're going to do the same
  135. 6:40all the way
  136. 6:52around and at the end make sure that you
  137. 6:54don't count the slip stitch that we made
  138. 6:57as a stitch you should have a total of
  139. 7:0024 stitches in this round and again at
  140. 7:04the end of every round we're going to
  141. 7:05slip stitch so find the first Stitch we
  142. 7:07made this one here go under the V at the
  143. 7:11top and do a slip stitch by yarning over
  144. 7:15pulling
  145. 7:17through and pulling through the loop on
  146. 7:19our hook and then tightening
  147. 7:21it and there is our second round and
  148. 7:25again to start a new round we're going
  149. 7:26to chain
  150. 7:27two and for this third third round we're
  151. 7:30going to increase in every second Stitch
  152. 7:34so that means our first Stitch is going
  153. 7:36to have one double crochet our second
  154. 7:38Stitch is going to have two double
  155. 7:40crochets and then the next one is going
  156. 7:42to have one and then two and then one
  157. 7:45and then two so let's do our first
  158. 7:46double crochet into that Stitch we just
  159. 7:48slip stitch
  160. 7:53two so there's one and in the next one
  161. 7:56we're going to do an increase so we're
  162. 7:58going to do two into the second
  163. 8:04Stitch so there's one and then there's
  164. 8:07our second one into that
  165. 8:10Stitch then we're going to repeat this
  166. 8:12pattern so the next Stitch is going to
  167. 8:14have just
  168. 8:16one and then the next is going to have
  169. 8:24two and we're going to repeat that all
  170. 8:26the way around and as long as you're
  171. 8:29Stitch count was correct and you do the
  172. 8:33pattern correctly with an increase every
  173. 8:36second Stitch you're going to end up
  174. 8:39with an increase in the very last Stitch
  175. 8:41and at the end of this round you should
  176. 8:43have a total of 36 stitches and we slip
  177. 8:52stitch and there is our third round now
  178. 8:56for round four we're going to chain two
  179. 9:00instead of every second Stitch we're
  180. 9:01going to increase every third Stitch so
  181. 9:03let's do just one double crochet in the
  182. 9:06first two
  183. 9:12stitches and then in the third Stitch
  184. 9:15we're going to do an
  185. 9:17increase so two double crochets into
  186. 9:19that third Stitch and we're going to
  187. 9:21repeat that
  188. 9:25pattern one
  189. 9:28one and then
  190. 9:30two into the third
  191. 9:35Stitch and again as long as you did the
  192. 9:38pattern correctly your last Stitch
  193. 9:40should have an
  194. 9:44increase and this fourth round should
  195. 9:46have a total of 48 stitches we'll do a
  196. 9:49slip
  197. 9:51stitch and there is round four in our
  198. 9:54fifth round we're going to increase in
  199. 9:56every fourth Stitch and our sixth round
  200. 9:59going to increase in every fifth Stitch
  201. 10:02and you should be able to see the
  202. 10:03pattern every new round is going to have
  203. 10:05another double crochet before the
  204. 10:07increase and the less rounds you do will
  205. 10:09give you a smaller hat and the more
  206. 10:12rounds you do will give you a bigger hat
  207. 10:13for a size small medium we're going to
  208. 10:15stop after we have six rounds if you
  209. 10:18want a medium large then you would do
  210. 10:20seven rounds so now I have six rounds
  211. 10:24and it's about 16 cm for the diameter so
  212. 10:28if you're using a different yarn yarn or
  213. 10:29hook size or your tension doesn't match
  214. 10:32mine then just add as many rounds until
  215. 10:34you get 16 cm for the diameter if you
  216. 10:37want a small medium and if you want a
  217. 10:39medium large then you would go until you
  218. 10:41have a diameter of 18 cm and once you're
  219. 10:45happy with the size we can move on to
  220. 10:47doing the body of the Hat the middle
  221. 10:50part and for the middle part we're just
  222. 10:51doing rounds with no increases so we're
  223. 10:55going to start by chaining
  224. 10:58two and then we're going to do just one
  225. 11:00double crochet into every single
  226. 11:06stitch and we're just going to keep
  227. 11:08adding rounds with no increases until we
  228. 11:12get the height of the hat that we want
  229. 11:14and you can try it on and I stopped once
  230. 11:17the last round was about an inch above
  231. 11:19my eyebrows so I've done seven rounds of
  232. 11:23the body and it's about 8 cm long and
  233. 11:27you can add more rounds if you want to
  234. 11:29make the Hat longer and now we can start
  235. 11:32on the brim so first we'll chain two as
  236. 11:35always and if you did six rounds for the
  237. 11:38top of the hat like I did we're going to
  238. 11:40increase in every 12th Stitch if you did
  239. 11:43a different number of rounds then count
  240. 11:44the number stitches in your last round
  241. 11:47divide by six and in that many stitches
  242. 11:50you're going to do an increase so again
  243. 11:52for small medium we're going to increase
  244. 11:54in every 12th Stitch so that means one
  245. 11:57double crochet into the first 11
  246. 12:01stitches and then in the 12th we're
  247. 12:03going to do an increase and we're going
  248. 12:06to do that all the way
  249. 12:09around here is the first round of my
  250. 12:13brim and to do the next round we're
  251. 12:16going to do an increase in every 13th
  252. 12:19Stitch instead of every 12th so just
  253. 12:22like for the top of the hat for every
  254. 12:24new round of the brim we're going to do
  255. 12:26another double crochet before the
  256. 12:27increase and the applies for any size
  257. 12:30hat you do so again the second round of
  258. 12:33the brim we're going to increase in
  259. 12:35every 13th Stitch and then for the third
  260. 12:38round we're going to increase every 14th
  261. 12:40Stitch and then 15th and 16th for
  262. 12:44however long you want your brim to be
  263. 12:46and here is my finished brim I did four
  264. 12:50rounds and once you're happy with the
  265. 12:52length we can fasten off and to fasten
  266. 12:54off chain
  267. 12:57one and then we're going to cutter yarn
  268. 12:59about this
  269. 13:03long and then pull through with your
  270. 13:07hook and tighten the knot and the last
  271. 13:10thing to do is to weave in our Loose
  272. 13:12Ends so let's grab our yarn needle and
  273. 13:16thread this loose end into the needle
  274. 13:31and then we're going to flip it so we're
  275. 13:33on the inside of the hat and we're going
  276. 13:36to hide it in our stitches so first
  277. 13:39let's move our loose end up towards the
  278. 13:44stitches so we're just going to go under
  279. 13:46these
  280. 13:48Loops until we get to the bottom of our
  281. 13:51last
  282. 13:52round so about right
  283. 13:55here then pull your yarn through
  284. 14:02and then this last round we can go under
  285. 14:05these Loops at the bottom of the double
  286. 14:09crochets so here go under these
  287. 14:17loops and we can go about this far and
  288. 14:20then pull the yarn through
  289. 14:31and then we can go up to another
  290. 14:43round and then we're going to go back in
  291. 14:45the opposite direction under these loops
  292. 15:07and we're just going to use up the rest
  293. 15:08of our loose end so go as far as you
  294. 15:15can and pull your Yarns through
  295. 15:30and then you can make sure it's not too
  296. 15:32tight and it's hidden and we just need
  297. 15:35to do that for this
  298. 15:37one on the
  299. 15:40inside and we're going to do the same
  300. 15:42thing just go under any loops and you
  301. 15:45can go back and forth in opposite
  302. 15:47directions to make it more secure and
  303. 15:49once we've weaved in both of our Loose
  304. 15:51Ends our bucket hat is finished and
  305. 15:54that's all for this video I hope you
