Here is one that my brother (ReedSkis~$) madewe might start selling some soon if you guys like 'em. wouldn't be able to take that many orders though, don't have much time so we might just make a bunch and sell whatever we decide to make

what do you guys think?currently we are working on some flop hats

I wish I could crochet looks like such a fun hobby but I suck at anything to do with sewing or stitching.

 

[beezey]

I also have just made my very first one ever

 

[Octopus]

sick]
really like the colors

 

[Shredneck]

nice to both

but I like em loose and floppy like beezeys .... haha

 

[Octopus]

to all who like em loose and floppy.im working on a flop hat now.this is a hat for under my helmet.therefore it needs to be kinda tight so it doesnt bunch up

 

[beezey]

I'm going to make some sweet mittens soon i think. fuckin love mittens. but making hats is uber easy

 

[Octopus]

ya do you have a pattern for mitts?

 

[beezey]

no but thats what google is for

 

[Octopus]

google know all

 

[2+2=5]

i do mittens all the time and i usually do like a ring the size of my wrist then do singles all the way up until its like a long wristband. so you get to the thumb and thats when you take one of the stiches and make a chain that goes around your thumb and connects back to the main piece. from there its a breeze, you just keep single stiching, and when u wanna start closing it up you skip stiches.

 

[ReedSkis~]

awesome, i need to figure out the flop hat (mine is the green and black one posted earlier)what pattern did you use?

 

[beezey]

3 links to 8 single stiches, then go 32 double stiches then you go 4 singles 1 double till you get the width you want which is going to be a smidge bigger then when you make your hands go into a circle if that makes sence then just single stick all the way down

 

[ReedSkis~]

alright, so you just do everything like normal except make it longer (which makes it sag?)

 

[MAnderson]

i made one and its sick

 

[beezey]

yup use a loose stick so it can fall down, make the last two rows of your hat super tight so its snug on ya

 

[RiSKIe]

sell those fo sho, ill buy one

 

[hank_hill]

heres one of my floppys

 

[beezey]

looser stich and it would look so much better. you want it to look relaxed so soft yarn and loose stich

 

[Funnel]

Nice. That's pretty good. I need to learn how to crochet this summer.

 

[Octopus]

really?

with more experience,if people like 'em, we might sell some of them

 

[Octopus]

[SkiAlyeska]

good job! if you learn how to double stich it will make your crocheting life a lot easier and faster.
