I made a
newborn hat to match the dress from my previous post. I used the same shells as
the ones used in the dress. The hat turned out stretchy and very soft. Now if
made a pair of baby booties, I would have a lovely baby girl gift set.

Thank you for the measurement early on! I have a tough time with some items. Last hat was 3" tall and 12" around! Infant size, of course. Another hat was supposed to fit a 10 YO and it fit my 24" head!
ReplyDeleteSo far so good! YEA! The only problem I have reading the problem is row 10. I believe I should have 9 shells in that row. If I DC in the shells and SC in the CH1 space, wouldn't I have 18 stitches in the last row? It looks like there are several stitches edging each shell.Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThe dress called for 5 dc in each shell ...... I am going to finish mine that way.
ReplyDeleteJust a question! I made this, and it is just a few inches to small...if i want to make it bigger, should i repeat row 4 again, and add an extra row 6?
ReplyDeleteHi, Olga! Could you help me, please? I'm stuck in round 3, when I get to the end and I have to slip stitch to join my work, there's a huge gap between the V-st and the initial four chains. I got 24 sts in round 1, 36 sts in round 2 and 41 sts in round 3, is this right? I tried going on despite the gap but found trouble again in the following rounds. Can you see what I did wrong? Could you please say how many stitches are we supposed to have at the end of each round? Thank you very much. Marisol
ReplyDeleteI don't have this finished hat anymore. I will have to make it again to figure out that problem. I'll try to do it soon.
DeleteRow 10 made the edge really, really tight. That hat was practically a ball. I frogged it out and left the hat at 9 rows. I could have shelled into the V stitch, but I took the lazy way out.
ReplyDeleteOh oh, my bad. There must be 5 dc in each shell.
DeleteThank you so much for letting me know. I'll fix it in the pattern.
I'm fairly new to crocheting and I am attempting to make this adorable hat. My only issue is round 3. It says to V stitch into next space between two v stitch of previous round, *V-st into next 2 V st into next space between two V-st of previous round* 5 times. I know that the * is repeat but to me it sounds like it's saying the same thing. Please help!! I am trying to make this hat for a friend who is having a baby girl next month. Thank you!!
ReplyDeleteHi Rosalie,
Deleteso in Round 3 you need to make increases, and you must alternate making V-st INTO each of 2 V-st of previous round, plus making additional V-st IN BETWEEN 2 V-st of previous round.
I'm not sure if this explanation makes sense.
You can email me a closeup photo of your work, and I can try to mark it on your photo how the V-st should be made.
