Lacy Shells Baby Hat Size 3-6 Months



This baby hat is made using the same shells stitch that I used for my Lovely Shells Baby Blanket. And I used the same leftover yarn as well.

The hat measures 14 inches (about 35.5 cm) in circumference and 6 inches (about 15 cm) in height.

    I thought of making lampshade with shell stitch but not sure how to get the conical shape...any idea?

    1. You can try adding chains between the shells. First round (or first two rounds) no chains, next round (or next two rounds) one chain between shells, next round (or next two rounds) two chains between shells, and so on. I'm not sure what it will turn out like, but I think that's the way to go to get a conical shape.

  13. How do you increase the size of the hat?

  14. This pattern is amazing! I misread it two different ways and came out with two really cute hats in addition to the lacy one I made when I finally got it right. Once I made shells instead of the dc, ch3, dc, giving me a solid shell, warmer hat. Then I repeated row 5 without row 6 which made shell columns, still cute. Like I said, amazing.
