Candy Puffs Beanie




 



        This is a wonderful little hat with lots of stretch.  It is both quick and easy to work up.  It requires Caron Simply Soft and a size M 9.0mm hook. I have included a video of how to complete the crossed cluster stitch.  Also I am going to be adding the flower patterns shown in the pictures.  Sorry it took so long.  


Newborn Size

Up to 12 Month Size

2-8 Years

9-Adult

Adult Slightly Slouchy Version


　

Here is a video to help with the stitches.  You should probably mute your speakers....

  11. i am having difficulty figuring out how to cluster stitch into the previously skipped stitch. Im not sure if i am doing it right. can you possibly post a video of how this is done?

    ReplyDelete

  12. I can't right now, but I can later.

    When you make the stitch it will look kind of like you are crocheting around the first cluster stitch.

    1. To the front of the stich, or the back of the stitch?

  17. I just got done making this hat...it was so much fun!!! Thank you for posting this and your instructions were great. Now I can't wait for my daughter to wake up so I can show her her new hat. :)

    ReplyDelete

  18. This might be a dumb question, but how do you use two strands of yarn wen crocheting? Is there a way to just use a thicker yarn? Thanks!

    ReplyDelete

  19. I either pull from both ends or else use two skeins. You can try using a bulky yarn. I'm not sure if it will look the same, but I am sure it would be pretty.

    ReplyDelete

  20. Thank you so much for the pattern! Love the hat, and I really appreciate the instructions for all sizes! Do you have a pattern for the flower?

  21. I saw that you used Caron Simply Soft but I was wondering what the color was called that you used in the picture with two hats? The closest I could find on line was a "melon" color????

    1. The first one is called Persimmon and the second is Off White. I love their off white.

  22. Hi, Wondering if you have posted the pattern for the flowers that are on this hat. If so Please tell me where to find them. Thanks so much, Cant wait to get started. This will be nice christmas gifts for my granddaughters.

    1. i am looking for flower pattern also.

    2. This hat is super cute! I would love the flower patterns. Am I missing them somewhere? I've looked all over the blog. Also, I cannot seem to find that hot pink color you used for the flower on the off white hat as I've searched through all the caron yarn colors online. Did you use a different yarn? I'd like to know so I can match the yarn types so they are similar. Finally, the size for 2-8, I plan to make this for a 3-year old, is it going to be really loose? Do you have advice to make it snug for her? She's very active and I don't want such a cute hat falling off and getting lost at the park. Thanks so much for your help and for sharing a darling pattern, I've searched for hours. So glad to have found one.

  24. thank you so much for this awesome pattern. It came out perfect on my first try. I made one for my 4 month old little girl & I imagine the 6 yr old will want one when she sees it too lol.

    ReplyDelete

  25. Would like to know if you have to use double strands of yarn and where is the pattern for the flower. The baby yarn came out lovely with the double strand thank you

    1. I used just one strand of yarn the first time I made it. It turned out well. It's just not as thick. Using 2 strands really is a nice touch.

      Delete

  26. turned out super cute! Thanks so much for the pattern! :D

  27. I just finished this hat. I think I've got the hang of the cluster stitches, but it seems that my hat is a LOT wider than yours. yours looks like a nice even width from the first row of clusters all through the last row. I counted, and there's the same number of clusters in each row...how did I get wider and wider? Any advice?

    ReplyDelete
    Replies

    1. Ok...so I hadn't watched your video until just now. I was NOT doing the cluster stitch correctly. I'll bet that's the problem somehow. I'll try another one.

      Delete

    2. Oh really? Do you have a picture?

      Delete

  28. I am so dissapointed as I cannot get it to copy and paste...I have never had trouble before...Is there any other way I can get this pattern?

  31. I have given it a try twice - 2-8 yr old- with different hooks - and my hat still comes out small. Any suggestions? Thank you

    ReplyDelete

  32. Where can I view your video on this hat.I am having trouble with the crossed clusters. Thanks Jennifer

    1. The video is at the bottom of the post. Right now I only have a video of how to do the stitches not the whole hat. I hope it works for you!!

    2. Ok Thanks. I have a question about the pattern. For Adult the increase ends at 36 but I don't want it slouchy. Isn't this going to make it too small for a small adult? Any suggestions are helpful. Thanks Jennifer

  33. Your using an M hook? My largest is a K. Will that work?

    ReplyDelete

  34. Is the flower pattern available anywhere yet?

    ReplyDelete

  35. I love this pattern! I made it for all of my coworkers in different colors and they raved about them! I used the same stitch to make scarfs ;) Merry Christmas & Happy Crocheting!

    ReplyDelete

  36. I saw this question but not an answer to it: if I've got an L hook (i've also got an N hook, but not an M hook:)) will that work??

    ReplyDelete

    1. Either one should work. You will probably have to adjust the pattern to make sure it works for the size you want.

  37. For some reason mine starts to flare out when i start to do the sc, am I doing something wrong? I've watched the video and I think i'm doing it right...

    ReplyDelete

  38. The biggest hook I have is a I/9 5.50MM. I was trying to do the 12 month size but it looked like a preemie hat. What should I do to make it bigger?

    ReplyDelete

  39. I was wondering the same thing...my hat flares out at the bottom where the sc go. What did I do incorrectly?

    1. I don't think you did anything incorrectly. You may have a slightly different tension than me.

  41. This hat is really, really cute, but I absolutely love the flowers. Are they posted somewhere else?

    ReplyDelete

  42. How do I print off this pattern? I am unable to from the website. I would love to make these cute caps.

    ReplyDelete

  43. Just made this hat! Super cute and easy. This is only the second hat I've ever made, so if I can do it, anyone can. Thank you for the fantastic pattern. The stitch count at the end of each row really helped me keep my seam straight. Now I just need the flowers to finish it off. Pretty please post those patterns too! :)

    ReplyDelete

  44. How may I get a copy of this pattern?

    ReplyDelete

  45. Love this! It worked up super fast. I was also looking for the flower pattern. Is it available anywhere?

    ReplyDelete

  46. I love this hat. It is my new favorite to make. Any chance of posting the pattern for the flower, all the ones I have been able to find so far have not been as cute as the one you made. Thanks!!

    ReplyDelete

  51. Hi, Stacey! I am desperate for your flower pattern. I really like both of them. Is it possible you could email or post the flower patterns? The hat just isn't complete without them! I'd appreciate it! Thank you! dsottos@me.com
