Crochet Baby Set Part 2, Maxican Hat for 1.5 years to 2 years Baby

 

Hi,

In my previous post I explained how to make Baby Sweater with Granny Hexagons. Now I made the Hat which has similar design as that of sweater. This is also for 1.5 years to 2 years baby.

Yarn: Vardhaman Millenium, hook 3.5 mm, Height 6.5" circumference 18" and weight 80 gm.

PATTERN:  R1: dc12 in magic loop, cl (First dc means ch3)

R2: (dc2 in one st, ch1) 12 times, cl. (24). 

Make a knot but don't cut the yarn. Join cream color at any ch1

R3: (dc3 in each ch1-sp, ch1) rep till end, cl. Sl st till ch1-sp.

R4: (dc4 in ch1-sp, ch1) 12 times, cl. Sl st till ch1-sp.

R5: same as R4

R6: [(dc2, ch1, dc2) in ch1-sp, ch1] 12 times, cl.

We have 24 ch1-sp.

R7: (dc3 in ch1-sp, ch1) 24 times, cl.

Measure it's circumference, it is 18" so now we only repeat next round.

R8: dc3 in each ch1-sp, cl.

Repeat this round till the height is 6.5", only use cream color for last but one round.

BRIM of the HAT: 

R1: ch1, sc1 in each st, skip ch1-sp. (72 sts)

R2: ch1, (sc1 in 2 sts, sc2 in next) 24 times, cl

R3: ch1, (sc1 in 3 sts, sc2 in next) 24 times, cl

R4: ch1, (sc1 in 4 sts, sc2 in next) 24 times, cl

R5: ch1, (sc1 in 5 sts, sc2 in next) 24 times, cl

R7: ch1, (sc1 in 6 sts, sc2 in next) 24 times, cl

Thus increase 24 sts in each round. Repeat this till the height is 2".

I have to increase till (sc1 in 13 sts, sc2 next) 24 times, cl and there are 360 sts.

Last round with cream color, ch1, sc1 in each st, cl.
