This hat is so cute! I'm going to make one for my brand new granddaughter today. Thank you for sharing the pattern.
ReplyDeleteI just made one for my soon-to-be-born granddaughter. I'm not sure she'll be small enough to wear it though. I'll just donate it to a NICU if it comes to that. Really cute. I wish I knew how to post a pic of it. Thanks for the pattern.
ReplyDeleteI just finished knitting this hat, but used Size 8 double points as I was also concerned about the size. It seems to be able to fit a newborn just fine, and I'm glad I went up a needle size.
Deleteive used your diaper cover pattern which was farely simple but bc i am a beginner i am having a hard time figuring out what you mean by K CO and P rather than SC DC etc
ReplyDeleteK= knit, CO= cast on, P= purl. I don't know a lot about crochet, but the other two sound like crochet terms for single crochet and double crochet. If that's the case, that would explain the confusion as the two are pretty different.
DeleteThese are knitting stitches. Nothing to do with crochet.

ReplyDeleteSo adoreable!! Do you have a pattern or suggestions on how I can make this in a 12m size? And adult? Thank you so so much!!
ReplyDeleteIs this hat made with circular needles?
ReplyDeleteLove this hat. I have a 6 month old granddaughter and would love to make this for her. The pattern is for a newborn. Do you have other size patterns in this hat or can you give me directions on how to resize so that I can make one to fit her.
ReplyDeleteIs this hat knitted or crocheted? I'm not familiar with knitting bit I do crochet. Is there a big difference and if so how could I change it up a little to be able to crochet it?
ReplyDeleteJust finished mine and it looks adorable on my newborn. I added in 12 stitches after the ribbing so that it would fit her a little longer. It's a little big on her now, but still usable. But now it will fit all winter.
ReplyDeleteDo u think that doubling or tripling the pattern would work? I have a year old and 1 1/2 yr old granddaughters.
ReplyDeleteMolto bello, mi piace moltissimo!
ReplyDeleteDo you have a crochet pattern? Love the hat but can't knit 😕
ReplyDeleteSuch a cute hat! I was wondering if you could help me with sizing it for older girls or adults. I'm not very good at adjusting circular patterns on my own. Circular and double-points I'm assuming? Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteI assume there is a purl row in between each decrease row? Although this seems to make the hat quite pointed in top, can someone please clarify? Thanks!!
ReplyDeleteDefinitely no purl row. You decrease on each row
DeleteTo the anonymous who asked about a purl row in between each decrease row, the answer is no. This is knitted in the round on circular or double point needles, and therefore there is no purl row in between the rows.
ReplyDeleteThe pattern is kind of confusing as she uses the term "row" for the first part and then "round" for the decreasing, but the whole thing should say "round". The circular or double point needles should have been specified at the top with the needle size. Another discrepancy is the bow instructions. They say to knit for 8", but that would result in garter stitch. In the picture, the bow is in stockinette stitch, so the bow instructions should say "knit 8" in stockinette" or Row 1: Knit, Row 2: Purl, Repeat rows 1 and 2 for 8".
Also, for those having trouble doing the k2tog in the decreases, which I found difficult on double points, I would suggest doing SSK instead. It's how I did mine, and it came out looking very neat.
Great advice!
DeleteGreat advice!
DeleteThank you for clearing up those questions for me! I really want to make these and donate them to our local hospital. Every little girl should have an adorable hat to wear!
DeleteIs there a way to add more stitches to make it larger. If so is the decrease the same?
DeleteCan anyone tell me about how much yarn is needed for size 8 needles for each color used?
ReplyDeleteIs there a way to make this hat for a toddler? Between the ages 1-3?
ReplyDeleteKaren Malik- The k, co & p was explained & you sad it's all knitting stitches so what does the SC & DC mean please? and thank you, Kathy
ReplyDeleteSC=Single crochet DC=Double crochet
DeleteIs there a way to add more stitches to make larger? If so is the decrease the same?
ReplyDeleteTo make the hat bigger: I would add by increments of 13. That way, when you start the decrease (K11, k2tog and repeat until this end of the row) you would have one extra repeat.
ReplyDeleteFor the bow: At firth I thought the instructions meant to knit in the round for 8 inches, that way you would get the stockinette stitch like in the photo rather than garter stitch. However, based on how many stitches are shown in the photo the best way to make the bow is to CO 15, K one row, P one row, K one row, P one row, etc that way you get the stockinette stitch. The sides curl inward when you fold the 8 inch pieces in half to join the ends together. Love that you done have to weave in the ends!
Very beautiful. Thanks
ReplyDeleteI would like to make this wee hat but it doesn't say what ply it is can you help me please.
ReplyDeleteWhat is the gauge of this project?
ReplyDeleteWhat's the easiest way fasten the bow to the hat?
ReplyDeleteThe next time I read a weblog, I hope that it doesnt disappoint me as a lot as this one. I mean, I do know it was my choice to read, but I actually thought youd have something interesting to say. All I hear is a bunch of whining about one thing that you may repair if you happen to werent too busy in search of attention. casino blackjack

ReplyDeleteQuestion please when it says k11 k2tog repeat
ReplyDeleteDo I repeat the whole step or just k2tog
Very cool article, it’s very interesting to see if the commenting on blogs works
ReplyDeleteThis hat looks like it is done in stockinette stitch, but your instructions are to knit every row---that's not going to get a hat that looks like the picture.
ReplyDeleteIf it's knit every row on dp or circulars, it will be stockinette. If straight needles, yes K 1 row, P 1 row.
DeleteIs this done on circular needles? It doesn't seem to be when I see needles needed. But I am looking for something that is on two single pointed needles, so I guess this isn't for me after all.
ReplyDelete
ReplyDeletei simply love this and it can be made is all colors its easy and fun to make. I made one on 10 1/2 straight needles. Thanks for pattern
The smallest needles I have is size 10. The baby that I am knitting for will be about three months when winter comes. Should I just decrease the stitches by a few to make it fit?
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing.
ReplyDeleteThe hat is so gorgeous.
Easy pattern. What is the correct yarn to use Double Knit or 4 Ply and needle what size should I use. My hat is tooo small.
ReplyDeleteIt states worsted weight which is aran
ReplyDeleteWhat if I wanted to use DK (sport weight yarn) How many would I cast on and which needle sizes would I need? Also, how would the row sizes increase?
ReplyDeleteThank you
