YO, insert hook into next stitch and pull up a loop. Now you have 3 loops on your hook. YO insert hook into the same space and pull up another loop ( 5 loops) repeat two more times (for a total of 4 times) until you have 9 loops on your hook, YO then pull through all loops. Secure with a CH stitch.

When you are looking on top of your work you will see a SC stitch makes a V shape. Put your hook under only the loop furthest away from you, and make your SC there. Instead of under both loops with a normal SC. If you are still having trouble with this stitch you can search Youtube for “single crochet back loop only” and you will see lots of tutorials.

0-3 Month Crochet Baby Beanie

Brim 
Make a slip knot and CH 8

Row 1: skip the chain closest to your hook and SC in the next 7 stitches. CH 1 and turn work.

Tip: Be careful not to make your CH 1’s at the end of each row too tight. This will affect the overall fit of your beanie.

Row 2-36: SCBLO in next 7 stitches. CH 1, turn.
GAUGE: Brim should be about 10.5″ unstretched and stretch to 15″

* this is a hard measurement to go by since the brim is made with the BLO stitch and is super stretchy. I could stretch and measure my brim 3 times and get 3 different “unstretched” lengths. Just keep that in mind)

Tip: When you stretch your brim if it feels like it is being restricted you may have made your chain 1’s too tight after rows 1-36.

This will create the brim of your beanie. Now its time to join to the beginning of the brim so your work creates a circle.

After finishing row 36 still do your CH and turn as normal. Fold the band in half, with the RS facing together.

Working through both loops on each end of the band, SL ST to join. CH 1, turn band right side out and turn your work 90 degrees to start working on the hat body. (7 SL STs, ch 1)

Please refer to the video above if you are having issues.

Body

Row 1: SC 41 stitches around the brim by evenly spacing them out. You will need to make 5 increases along this row. Just space them out so they’re not all next to each other.

Since you are working along the raw side of your brim you will need to make your own places to put your stitches. Join back into your first SC, then CH up 1. (41)

Row 2: PS in the same space as the CH 1 (Don’t forget the CH for securing your puff stitch after you complete each one) Skip the next stitch, PS in the next stitch.

Continue around until you have 21 PS total. Join into the top of your first PS and CH 1. (21)

Row 3: PS in the first CH 1 space that was created after securing your PS in Row 2. Continue putting a PS in CH 1 space from Row 2 until you have 21 PS. Join into the top of your first PS. CH 1. (21)

Row 4: PS around starting in the space RIGHT next to your CH 1. Join back into your first PS, CH 1. (21)

Row 5: PS in the first CH 1 space that was created after securing your PS in Row 4. Continue putting a PS in CH 1 space from Row 4 until you have 21 PS. Join into the top of your first PS. CH 1. (21)

Row 8: PSDEC over the first two CH 1 spaces. *PS in the next CH 1 gap then another PSDEC.* Repeat from * around ending with an extra PS. Join into your first PS, CH 1 (9)

Row 9: PSDEC over the first two CH 1 spaces. PSDEC all the way around ending with an extra PS. Join into your first PS, CH 1 (5)

Row 10: SC in each stitch around. (10)

Tip: Be sure to put your single crochet stitches INTO the chain spaces from row 9 and not just UNDER the chain itself.

Cut your yarn, leaving a long tail (8-10 inches) for sewing in.

Thread your tail onto your tapestry needle and close up your hole. I use the magic close method and really like it. (as shown in video)

Sew in your first tail and your crochet baby beanie is finished!

Pro Tip: Add a faux fur pom or a custom tag to really give your beanie a finished look.

    I have this BEAUTIFUL yarn that I want to use to make one of these. However it’s a 3 DK weight not a 4 Worsted weight. How would you suggest I alter the pattern?

    • Ashley says:

      Humm I havent tried that yet. I would check your gauge and see how much difference there is in the yarns then go from there. If its way smaller maybe make the size a couple sizes bigger than the one you want… i

    I love this pattern and thank you for sharing it with us! I just wanted to make sure on the pattern for 0-3 months, should row 7 end in two PS not a final PSDEC on the above written pattern?

  5. Kimberly says:

    The newborn size gauge seems accurate, but I started a toddler size and it’s just not big enough. Using same weight yarn and recommended hook size (I 5.5mm). My 2.5 y/o daughters head is 21″ and there is no way that 44 rows will stretch and I’ve even tried 50 rows…still too small. Frustrated because I have to make a toddler and grandma matching hat set for a client and was hoping to use this pattern. Any advice?

    These are the cutest and you’ve made this so easy to follow along! Thank you so much!

    Is there any chance you will be making a video to do an adult beanie?

    Good evening all the way from South – africa. Do you maybe have a closed adult size pattern? Because my mommy wants one. And I only have your messy bun pattern.

    Hi Ashley,

    What is the yarn in the green/pink hat photo with all the different colors?? I love it but can’t see the brand! Thanks!

    I am crocheting the 12 to 24 month size. On the written patter it states to do (24) puffs but the video has doing (24) puffs on the first puff row & every row after that you are to crochet (23) puffs. Which is right? Love this pattern plan on making several for friends & family. Thank you!!
