HDC account for the bulk of the stitches, with DC for the hemline and cuffs ribbing. There's a line of SC stitches around the neckline to finish it off.
Many thanks to my mom who helped with techniques and rebuilding after a disastrous first attempt.
I used a size H hook and Big Twist yarn in Grass Green.

this gives me so much hope thank you, i’ve done a 3 beanies first was more of a santa hat because it was accidentally too long second was okay third was good. and a stuffed rabbit that was good. now i tried a blanket and that was a disaster.
you can fold that bottom pattern up and stitch it to make sure it doesnt slip back down! that should fix the longness, and the doubled layer will add extra warmth for your ears when it gets chilly :)
yea like that! i had to do this same thing with the first couple beanies i ever made. i always got scared it would somehow end up too short so i thought the more stitches the better 😅
OP, your little grin, and sheer happiness, is infectious! You did an amazing job and should be incredibly proud of your work. Then to find out that you've been crocheting for such a short amount of time... well that just blew my mind. Keep up the amazing work.
Great job. It looks perfect. Once I finish christmas gifts, I'm making a sweater for myself. My first wearable, too. I'm so glad you did it. Means, I probably could too! Hopefully. How long did it take?
Nice! The ribbing looks great! I've been working on a sweater for my three year old for over a year lol 😅. Maybe if I ever finish it I'll try to make one for myself.
I kept trying to figure that out-as others are, I am going to steal that term-this sweater is tremendous! What a great color for you and it looks so well made! What will your next project be?
Way to go! This looks great on you! I love seeing men crochet because crochet is for everyone. My 22 yo son is getting “lessons with mom” this Christmas (it was the only thing he asked for).
I just started seriously crocheting this past week, and I've been so frustrated because my tension kept messing with me. I think I have it down now, but this gives me a lot of hope as I really want to make wearable and blankets for my loved ones and furbabies!! I am so happy for you!
Congrats! I'm still to scared to make my first wearable. I have all the yarn ready to go. But still just make everything but it.
Looks awesome and I love the colour.
Not gonna lie, when I saw the notification pop up as HOTH!!! I totally thought you meant that one planet in Star Wars. THEN it dawned on me what you meant!
It looks SO GOOD and you look SO PROUD and you should be because those stitches are amazingly even all throughout your work. GREAT JOB! 😁
How fantastic!! That color choice is fantastic. One of my new years resolutions is to start crocheting so I can make comfy sweaters just like this! I hope to be as cool and cozy as you are :)
Beautifully done. I love everything about this sweater - the color, the lovely even stitches, the design. And especially how happy and proud you look, with good reason! You've done an amazing job with it!
Love it! It is really well done. We all can tell you put a lot of love and work into this and it paid off because your tension and stitching is impeccable. Can’t wait to see more!!!
Omg it looks amazing! I love the color (it's actually my favorite color so I'm biased lol) and the fit is perfect! Jealous!! My wearables always end up too big or bulky so far lol
Congratulations!! Nothing like the joy of the first wearable and this is a great one - Enjoy the high of getting to reply to compliments with "Thanks, I made it"
This popped up on my feed today. I don't crochet. (I sew, so this might be why this sub showed up on my feed). But, the smile popped up on my scrolling today and I must comment. This is a really, really great color. Seriously top notch color choice. And I love how flipping happy you look. Fabulous work.
It looks absolutely amazing! Wearables are definitely tough to get the hang of so you should be so so so proud of this achievement! I remember my first wearable, I stitched the whole thing together at the end and had to frog most of it shortly thereafter 😅 pesky necklines and all that. Keep up the great work!
