Baby Hat with Three Flowers, Pattern Giveaway



These are not some fancy stitch baby hats. On the contrary, they are simple double-crochet ones. An advanced crocheter could probably make something similar without a pattern. But, not all of us have advanced crochet skills, so I designed this pattern for the beginners.





Despite the fact that the patter is easy, I put a lot of work into creating it. The most challenging part was figuring out the right amount of increases for each of the four sizes (0, 3, 6, 12 months) that I made.

Moreover, I made an effort to write this pattern as close to the standard form as possible.




I offer my first “real” crochet pattern in PDF format to one of my readers. Just leave me a comment and I will add you to the random drawing. I will announce the winner in my next post on Thursday, March 13.

I also put this pattern for sale in my Etsy shop for $1.75

  5. Beautiful!!! I'm new to crochet and after a phase of making LOTS and LOTS of flowers, I graduated to making LOTS and LOTS of coasters. I've been looking for a simple crochet hat to make - this looks perfect. Thank you! I'm ready for my next LOTS and LOTS! :)

  21. Congratulations! I am reminded of the day about three years ago, when I found one of my crochet hooks while tidying, thought 'maybe I will crochet something easy to get started again' It was a little lacy beanie; I have since not put down my hook, my passion rekindled and I still adore making pretty hats with beautiful embellishments. I would love to add your new pattern to my collection! :) xx
