Crochet hat #2

[modernwizard]

Submit likes the 1:6 blue hat I crocheted for her. I also think she likes Frank... My crochet skills are slowly improving, although I find working in the round more challenging than straight lines [e.g., a scarf]. I keep messing up the counts when I'm increasing each round. I also still have problems figuring out where to poke the needle for the next single crochet. Despite these obstacles, I produced a small serviceable hat on the second try. It even looks like a hat too, which is more than I can say for the pith helmet. Pictures below.

Somehow I think Submit is not up to the idea of rockin' the beads just yet like Frank does...maybe when she is a little older?

I think its awesome that you are teaching yourself to crochet, that tiny little hat you've made for Submit has some really small stitches!!

Nice :) Btw, http://crochet.about.com has some great tutorial with good illustrations (I sometimes forget how to make a particular stitch, due to fibro fog).
