finished infant hatAny little one would look like the princess she deserves to be in this hat! In an hour or less, with minimal crochet skills and a tiny amount of yarn, you will have made a keepsake for years to come.

You may leave the hat plain, or add a flower. Personally, I think big blooms on tiny melons rock! I have used Caron Simply Soft yarn. It is slightly thinner than your typical #4, also very soft. What a special baby shower gift this would make. It will also cost you next to nothing. Enjoy.

Total Time: 1 hour

Supplies:

  • "h" crochet hook
  • tiny amounts Caron Simply Soft worsted weight #4 yarn
  • scissors
  • embroidery needle to weave in ends

Steps:

  1. Chain 5, join to first chain to make a circle.
  2. step 1
     
  3. Chain 3, 13 double crochet in ring. Join to top of chain 3. 14 dc
  4. step 2
