I would love to see a couple of random ideas... 1. a crochet fedora (for the "part hipster" in all of us!) 2. a cube shaped storage box, basically a dupe of the ikea storage baskets

I have a special request I have a friend named mickey and she asked me if I could possibly make her a mickey mouse bag. My idea was a crossbody flap bag. But I cannot find a pattern for such bag?

I saw a breakdown of the costs on a website that was selling the hat. Miu Miu’s cost is $35 for materials and $35 for labor. If you look inside the hat, all the ends are hanging out, even in the brim. You can see ends popping out when the model is wearing it. It’s shameful! I’ve owned Miu Miu shoes and clothing in the past. They were well made and much less expensive because I bought them in Italy. This hat costs about 40% less in Europe.

@@ErikaLaGrande I wonder how many hats they actually sold for that outrageous price? Not many, I'd think. And only $35 for labor? It would have taken some skilled worker at least several hours to make it. I'd crochet the ends in as I worked... an easy time saver and not so tedious as weaving them in and sure looks nicer than leaving ends hanging out!

We used to tell women not to give away their skills and to ask for monetary compensation for the items they make. Miu Miu took that advice seriously!😁

Just wanted you to know I made the miu miu hat ,so far I got 3 complements on it. Thank you for helping me get rid of my scrap yarn.

Insane! I was looking at the Prada crochet market bags and thinking the same thing haha

Well they DO so make a fancy label & start planning your new wardrobe!🙂

Hi thanks you for your comment! Some of it is cotton, some is acrylic, some is a blend, I used any and all scraps I had in my closet😂 and the embroidery floss combo is so fun!! I’m trying to think of other projects to use it with

Thank you for your sweet comment! You can probably not increase, but you may find your rim will bend inward, I hope that makes sense😅 honestly, I will try something and see if I like it and undo it all the time so maybe try it without and see if you like it!

@@emilyfrances._ thank you so much for your answer I'll follow your advice ! 🥰

Hi! You should be able to no problem, I used all different kinds of yarn in this one

Hi! If you don’t increase it won’t keep growing out flat like a brim does, it will form downwards like the hat because all the stitches will stack uniformly row by row!! Hope that makes sense I think it will be very different with the brim your planning, if you’re on instagram id love to see the finished product! emilyfrances._

Thanks so much for your reply! I think there may have been some misunderstanding with what I said however, as what I was hoping to find out was why the last row of the brim needs to end on an increase round? Also, I made a separate small granny square strip to add onto the main part of the hat so didn't do as much of the length after the crown part, sewed that on and then worked the brim off the base of that, if that makes sense? So the granny square strip is in the main part of the hat still, it's not to replace the brim. I'd love to show you the end result but am not on Instagram sorry, but if you can let me know about the order of the brim rounds and why the last one should be an increase round I'd be really grateful, thanks! 😊

I almost always crochet over and avoid weaving in ends! For this one I was just feeling particular about the color look and decided do weave in after😅 but I totally agree, not necessary

Hi! So each row you add a normal stitch before the increase. row 1: 1single crochet 1 increase. Row2: 2 single crochet 1 increase. Row3: 3 single crochet 1 increase. And so on, hope that makes sense!

yes, she increased every row until it fits her head circumstances. 1st row 1 hdc 1 inc, 2nd 2 hdc 1 increase, 3rd 3 hdc 1 increase

Hej! The whole hat is done in half double crochet as we refer to it in the US, I believe in EU it’s called half treble crochet? Apologies for any confusion

Hi! Baby weight yarn is so thin and I wanted to make sure it was the same thickness as all the other yarn

Hi! I didn’t chain one every row because I don’t turn the top after each row I just kept going forward. It might be that your hook is too small for the yarn your using making the tension too tight

When you make the top make sure it only covers the top of your head and only make enough rows to go down to mid-forehead, or to the top of the eyebrows (depending on your preference.) then make your brim as wide as you'd like from there

Thank you so much! Some of the yarn is cotton, some is acrylic, some is a blend, I used whatever I had laying around

I found when carrying on this hat that I could always see the other colors I was carrying and I don’t love that so I took the time to weave in on this one to be pickier about where the tails would blend best

Hi! Before you started the sides did you do one row of inside loop only? Also make sure you’re not making any accidental increases

Mix of both! I just used whatever I had laying around

K... thanks so much

It is! 1 or 2 of them might be cotton but 99% of the scrap yarn is acrylic from Michael’s

@@emilyfrances._ thank you for responding

Hi! I used a 5.25 hook and the yarns are mostly a worsted weight yarn but I really used whatever I had laying around

@@emilyfrances._ thankyou.

I like the structure! I’ve made bucket hats with a looser stitch and it was a little too floppy for my taste. But it’s a very easy fix to change your hook size or tension to your preference!

Hi!! Thanks for the lovely comment. Yes I’m now emilyfrances._ I had the other handle for a year and didn’t get any tags though so you’re not missing out on anything 😂

@@emilyfrances._ thanks a lot for your feedback🤩 then i will send you my lovely hat if i’ll ever be able to finish it lol🐣

No! I literally used whatever was in my stash, but if one was way thinner than the others I doubled it up to make it a similar thickness

😂😂😂 I’m so sorry hahaha

I used a 5.25mm, but I’m sure a 5 would work just fine!
