One day I noticed that I needed to make a few cotton hats for my daughters. Here is one of them for my younger daughter.

The head circumference of my 2,5 years old girl is 48cm.
The size of the finished hat: is 21cm in width, and 17cm in height.
The yarn I've used is 100% Cotton DK by Patons UK (210m/100g) in Nectarine color.
And a 4mm hook.
Ch 4 join in the ring with a slip st
Rnd 1: 12 DC in the ring
Rnd 2: 2 DC in each st around
Rnd 3: (DC, ch 1, DC) - in every 2nd st around
Rnd 4: 4 DC in each ch-1-space around
Rnd 5: Cluster(2 DC, ch 1, 2 DC) - in the middle of each 4-DC-cluster
Rnd 6: *(2 DC, ch 1, 2 DC) - in ch-1-space, 1 Treble in the space between the clusters, repeat from * around
Rnd 7: *(2 DC, ch 1, 2 DC) - in ch-1-space, 2 DC in Treble - repeat from * around (84 st)
Rnd 8: *(2 DC, ch 1, 2 DC) - in ch-1-space, 1 DC in each of the next 2 DC between the clusters - repeat from * around
Rnd 9-16: As Rnd 8
Rnd 17: Sc in each st around(84 st)
Rnd 18: *6 Sc, ch-3-Picot - repeat from * around. Fasten off, hide the ends, attach a lovely flower and enjoy your girl's new hat!
How I do a Picot: Sc, ch 3, slip st in the sc (insert hook through the front loop of sc and left vertical bar of the same sc).
The lovely flower pattern I found here.
Also a graphic pattern of the hat, where it is missing, hehe, Round 17. You should do sc in each st around in that round.

Very pretty. Love that little flower. Thanks for sharing at our party this week.
ReplyDeleteI am working on a hat right now, and it is not working out. I will probably try a different pattern, since I do not wish to go out and buy a lighter weight yarn...
ReplyDeleteYour daughter is adorable, and I know that look all too well, lol.
Thank you!
DeleteWhich round does not go? At what point?
