athykay 9 Posted November 23, 2004 I too am so excited I thought while you were making mine. I would give it a try. Make some Xmas gifts. I bought the yarn and the needles and have tried and tried. Well it has been way to long. I can't figure it out I can't even get the darn thing started. HELP Teresa what am I doing wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rebeccalee 2 Posted November 23, 2004 Kathy, If you just can't get the hang of that loop, try chaining 2 and then do the single crochets in the 2nd chain from the hook. There might be a bit more of a hole in the top, though. The loop you can tighten has a very nice result, but is difficult to learn. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Penni60 45 Posted November 23, 2004 Hey guys: I just finished my hats. I have made 6 but only kept 5. They are christmas presents. I sold one for $10. WHOO HOO!!!! I have to make the scarves to match now. Easy pattern. Chain either 30 or 35 then single crochet the rest of the pattern till you get the desired length you want. I use a G hook for the hats and scarves. The hats take me about two days. I could actually make them in a day if I stuck to it. The scarves take me about two and a half days. I love them. So easy to make. Here are pics of the 5 hats I have kept. The multi colored one is mine the rest are christmas presents. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
New Hope 37 Posted November 23, 2004 Penni, those are darling! I love the multi colored one. Are you using Teresa's pattern? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Iluvharleys 15 Posted November 23, 2004 I love those hats! All of you gals are so talented! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Penni60 45 Posted November 23, 2004 Yup using Teresa's pattern but not the same hooks. Makes a difference. I also made mine a little bit longer than hers. That makes mine a little more boxy. I will post a pic of the scarf later today. I have the multi scarf done. Almost have scarves done to match the hats too. Really simple to make. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
