The "Heyyy Baby Beanie"



That's right. Here it is finally!!!


For this pattern I used a weight 4 yarn and a size 6mm (J) hook.  Changing the hook size greatly affects the overall size of the hat.  Please take note!  I am also a very tight crocheter but made sure to loosen my tension so as to have a consistent outcome with the beanie.  It's a perfect fit so far and I've made 12 plus of these hats now.

Yarn used here is "I Love This Yarn" from Hobby Lobby in "Sand Dunes".

This is a top down pattern...I do not have the pattern for a bottom up version. Sorry!

Abbreviations:

ch: Chain
st:  Stitch
sts: Stitches
HDC: Haf Double Crochet
DC:  Double Crochet
FP:  Front Post
BP:  Back Post

Stitches used:  Half Double Crochet,  Double Crochet, Crochet in 3rd Loop, Front Post Half Double Crochet, Front Post Double Crochet, Back Post Half Double Crochet, Back Post Double Crochet.

    1. This isn't my pattern. However, if you did the chain 20 like in #2,then pick up with #3 and go from there should do it. Hope it helps.

  8. Does chain 2 at start of new row count as a stitch or do you do the first stitch in same stitch as chain?
