Free Crochet Pattern baby hat

When I lived in the Midwest I was part of a fiber art gathering that donated newborn hats to the local hospital, so that new parents could take their babies home in unique hats.

I enjoy charity and they are quick makes.

Some hospitals won't use handmade hats, and some require natural fibers only (even though the clothing and blankets they use are not natural fibers) so it's best to ask before creating hats to donate.

Today I made an easy pattern to share.

Important Info: For my example I'm using G hook, and category 4 Red Heart super saver yarn. I made 24 foundation half double crochet, but you will use a multiple of 4 that fits the length of hat you're creating. (4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, etc.) I recommend a relaxed tension for more stretch.

Abbreviations:

Ch=chain

Hdc=half double crochet

Fhdc=foundation half double crochet

Fp-hdc=front post half double crochet

Bp-hdc=back post half double crochet

*=repeat pattern begins

Row 1: 24 fhdc. Ch 2, turn. (Ch2 is treated as a hdc throughout.)

Row 2: hdc, fp-hdc. *3hdc, fp-hdc. Repeat from * to end, last stitch will be a hdc. Ch2, turn.

Row 3: *Bp-hdc, 3hdc. Repeat until end. The bp-hdc will be made on top of the previous row's fp-hdc. Ch2, turn.

Repeat Rows 2-3 until desired circumference is met.

Match up the sides, sew closed to make a cylinder shape, and then cinch the top to finish the hat. Tie off, weave in ends. Add a pompom if desired.

Cute Cottagecore Crochet Pattern Roundup #2

Pattern Roundup #2 I have a special love for cottagecore, gardening, and herbs.. and it feels so rewarding to combine my crochet interests with a cottage aesthetic. Here are fun cottagecore themed crochet patterns from Etsy! Wearables 1. This is a beautiful Fern Scarf to drape around your shoulders as you inspire both fear and awe in your neighborhood 2. The fairytale bonnet really looks like something you'd put on to enjoy a walk in the woods looking for fairy rings. This maker is one of my favorites. 3. This sweet bucket hat style mushroom cap is so dreamy with that little bit of whimsical "ribboning effect" that reminds me of mushroom gills. Use caution, though, as the pattern maker is restricting this to personal usage. 4. the Elwyn Hood looks cute and cozy, but also like you might be an herbal witch living in a cave. It has all the vibes. 5. The Foxglove bucket hat is another one from The Entangled Fae, and I just find...
