Hi Kristen, try double checking your gauge. The gauge for this hat is pretty tight, so you might be crocheting too loosely.

Hi! I have gotten through the 15 rounds and my hat is monstrously large! I’ve rechecked my initial 6 rows of work but can’t find any problems. What could I have done wrong?

tyvm anyway great beanie instructions btw , I tried it before on another site with sc and …well it came out toddler sized o.o. the double crochet is easier to manage though , for me anyhow , so thank you once again and I found if you tighten up the 3 ch at the end of each round after a sl st then it wont show nearly as much just wanted to say, if anyone else here finds the 3 ch easier

Sorry, I don’t know of any wolf patterns for blankets, but hopefully someone else can chime in and help you out if they’ve seen one.

I have another question, I’m trying another project, its a thick blanket for a friend, she wants a black outter edge, and a purple middle, with a turquoise wolf in the middle, Do you by chance know where I can get some free designs for a wolf outline? it doesnt have to be intricate just an outline of a howling wolf, if you know of any, please email me? or reply here jmobrien18@yahoo.com

Hi Jake, this pattern is crocheted seamlessly in the round like a spiral. You can slip stitch at the end if you want to add it.

I tried out your pattern and absolutely love it! However, rows 7-15, you forgot to mention to chain three then dc in every single dc. That way it doesn’t get lop-sided. Love the pattern though!

Hi Lucy, that means to make 3 double crochets into each of the double crochets all the way around.
