Baby Bow Hat Tutorial
I saw a picture of a hat similar to this on Pinterest that was knitted. I don't know how to knit, frankly, it confuses me. But I HAD to make this hat, so I decided to make up a pattern for it and thought i'd share. Enjoy!
Materials"
Med-weight yarn in two colors of choice. (I used "Vanna's Choice")
4.25 mm hook or size "G"
Yarn Needle
(This makes a size 6 mos.)
Start with a magic circle
Row 1: Ch 1, 9 sc in magic circle and join with a sl st
Work in back loops for next 7 rows.
Row2: Ch 3, dbl in same st, 2dbl in BACK LOOPS of each sc around, join with a sl st in 3rd ch.
Row 3: Ch 3, dbl in same st,* dbl in next st, 2 dbl in next st* repeat from * all the way around, join with sl st.
Row 4: Ch 3, dbl in same st, *dbl in next 2 st, 2 dbl in next st* repeat from * all the way around, join with sl st.
Row 5: Ch 3, dbl in same st, *dbl in next 3 st, 2 dbl in next st* repeat from * all the way around, join with sl st.
Rows 6-7: Ch3, dbl in same st and each stitch around, join with sl st. Tie off after row 7.
CHANGE COLORS
Row 8: Join new color with sl st. (Still working in back loops) Ch 3, dbl in same st and each st around. Join with a sl st.
Row 9: Work in BOTH loops, Ch 3, dbl in same st and each st around. Join with sl st. Tie off.
CHANGE BACK TO FIRST COLOR
Rows 10-12: Join new color with sl st, ch 1 and sc in ea st around. Join with sl st. Tie off after row 12.
For the Bow:
Row 1: Ch 24, join with sl st to make a circle.
Rows 2-6: Ch1, sc in each stitch around, join with sl st. Tie off.
Lay the circle flat so there are two layers on top of one another. Pinch right in the middle and tie a piece of yarn around pinched off section and tie a knot. Wrap yarn around 5-6 times and tie off in the back.
Take your yarn needle and sew the bow to the second color "band" on the hat making sure it lays flat. I like to only sew the back layer of the bow so it still has some shape. And voila! You have a darling winter hat for your baby.
Enjoy! :o)
