Simple Head Band For Newbies

If you are new to crochet and wish to start, try this out. This head band is made entirely on single crochet. You can use any hook size and any type of yarn but I would recommend that you use cotton yarn for a start as it is soft and easy to work with.

The tutorial video :

Start by making the width of the head band. For children, start with a foundation chain of 10 stitches and adult, 15 stitches. You can make more if you wish. Chain 1 more and turn your work. Make 1 single crochet on the 2nd stitch from hook on the foundation chain. Continue to single crochet on all the stitch on the foundation chain. When reach the end, chain 1 and turn your work and continue to do single crochet all around.

Once you have your desire length, you can sew the end together like how I did in the tutorial video. Just for guide, the length of the band for young children is 11 inches to 17 inches. For toddler is around 18 to 19 inches and adults normally around 22 inches.

You can measure your head circumference and just minus 2 inches and your head band will fit your head.

Peony Flower

This is a big flower compare to the other crochet flowers. You will need cotton yarn, wire and some flower making green tape. I also added a chop stick, or you can use any wood or metal, to hold the flower as it is quite heavy with so many petals and wire. I used 3 different colors for the whole flower. The tutorial video : The Core Part (use yellow yarn) 1) Chain 9, do 3 single crochet (sc) in the 2nd stitch from the hook, sc in the next, slip stitch (ss) until the end, which you will have 6 ss all in. Chain 9 and repeat the whole thing, all in 8 sets. 2) Chain 10, 3 sc in the 2nd stitch from hook. Sc in the next and ss in the following stitches until the end of the chain, all in 7 ss. Make 9 sets. 3) Chain 11, 3 sc in the 2nd stitch from the hook. Sc in the next and ss in the following stitches until the end of the chain, all in 8 ss. Make 10 sets. 4) Chain 1, do sc on the next 27 stitches on the base. 5) Chain 1, turn the work, [sc in the next 2, do a 2 together (dec)] - 6 sets,

Tiny Top Hat

This Top Hat is tiny enough for my amigurumi. Preferable black in color but for tutorial video sake, I did a brown one too. I used cotton yarn and a 3 mm hook. It is very easy to make. The tutorial video : Top Hat 1) Magic ring with 6 single crochet (sc) into ring [total 6] 2) 2 sc in each, all around [total 12] 3) (Sc in next 3, 2 sc in next stitch) repeat all around [total 15] 4) Sc all around (only on back loop) [total 15] 5) - 8) Sc all around [total 15] 9) 2 sc in each stitch, all around the front loop only [total 30] You can cut yarn now, either you leave a long tail for sewing or weave in the tail. Hope you make lovely hats for your amigurumi. Do remember to subscribe to my Youtube channel and follow me on Facebook , Shopee , Tiktok and Instagram . Thank you for your support.

Crochet Mooncake

This is my second crochet mooncake. This pattern is different from my first crochet mooncake. I made two version. One with lace yarn and a 2 mm hook and another with cotton yarn and a 3 mm hook. The lace yarn mooncake is smaller than the cotton yarn mooncake due to the size of the yarn and hook yet both are equally lovely and look quite like the real thing. The tutorial video : Mooncake (make 2 - top piece and bottom piece) 1) Start with a magic ring. Make 8 single crochet (sc) into the ring [total 8] 2) Make 2 sc into each stitch (inc) [total 16] 3) (Sc, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 24] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only 4) (Sc, inc, sc) - 8X [total 37] 5) (Sc next 3, inc) - 8X only on the back loop [total 40] - If bottom piece, no need back loop only 6) (Sc next 2, inc, sc next 2) - 8X [total 48] 7) (Sc, half double crochet (hdc) next 2, 2 double crochet (dc) in the same stitch, hdc next 2, sc, slip stitch) - 6X After complete the top piece,
