XTall Beer Can Top Hat
Triple Tall Beer Can Top Hat! Crochet Tutorial

Okay, I hope you are ready for this. I have decided to start making craft tutorials for youtube, starting with the coveted Beer Can Hat. The more I contemplated this project, the more design ideas I came up with. It just sounded fun! Nobody is making giant cool beer can hat patterns. But I am here for you.

 

I actually made a cute little Promo video here:  

 


NEW *Creative* Beer Can Hat Tutorials 2022

 

To start, I'm making a 3 part tutorial for the basic Beer Can Party Hat (it is now posted!!), similar to how my original tutorial is laid out. Each part is a step in the process, but each part can also be a whole hat in itself! Hello. So if you are crocheting in a real life party situation, and you get a little too high or start making out or whatever, you can finish it up quickly. 

Part 1 is the Crown, Part 2 is the Fez, Part 3 is the Cap. I have simplified the construction to be beginner friendly, but also include shortcuts (a little more advanced) to make a hat even faster. There will be double and triple tall hats, cones, cowboy, other stuff.

I mean, I think you can see I'm into it. Haha.  Ultimately I will also have written patterns for sale. The tutorials will remain free, I'll have a written blog version for each video.

AND of course this is just the beginning. I realized, as I thought of other tutorials I wanted to teach... these projects do not exist anywhere else. My channel will be totally unique. I have garden crochet, bead crochet jewelry, clothing upcycle sewing, mannequin art. Just a lot of fun weird stuff that is totally me.

I am keeping it quiet for a while though. It will take some time for anyone to catch on, which will give me a chance to get better at it. The video part has a bigger learning curve than I expected. That shit is harder than it looks! But I'm getting there. I hope to have things really rolling by summer, or sooner. Woop.

NEW *Creative* Beer Can Hat Tutorials All *NEW* Beer Can Party Hat Tutorials are Actually COOL! Okay. Carry on.   I'm going to attempt to share with the world my pattern for the coveted Beer Can Hat. Some years ago I started making these and spread them around to many friends and unsuspecting acquaintances. I believe they originated during the 70s cheesy crafts era, which I completely adore. Many a birthday party have I attended bringing a 6 pack of beer, a skein of yarn, a couple compact tools... and a few hours later, left the host with a special party hat and gift made right before his drunken eyes. Now YOU can be that fascinating craft nerd, amazing your friends at parties. Or just drinking and crocheting at home.  Al

Make the Base (Top):   I call this part of the hat the Base because that's where a hat usually begins. Crochet the Base of the hat from the Basic Hat Pattern . Work in the dc stitches as described until the underlined number is 4. You should end up with a nice circle that has 60 sts around the outer edge. Do not tie off. 6. Join the Base to the Crown: Hold the Crown and the Base wrong sides together with the labels facing you and matching up the stitches as you work.
