I was on a Valentine’s Inspired kick. With it came a lot of working projects at once, and now I’m slowly getting them finished up, edited and posted.
I made this hat to fit my 5 year old niece, Kayliss.
Materials:
-1 ball of Worsted Weight Yarn – I used Vanna’s Choice in Pink Poodle
*Optional: a little White yarn for embellishment
-Size I9/5.5mm Hook
-Tapestry Needle for weaving in ends
Measures to fit a child’s head – 19″ – 20.5″, but can be customized for any size! You would just increase or decrease as necessary, and add a few or subtract a few rows.
Abbreviations:
CH – Chain
DC – Double Crochet (American, not British)
SC – Single Crochet
sp – Space
sk – Skip
ea – Each
Pattern:
CH 4. 12 DC in 1st CH. Join to first DC and pull ring closed. (12 DC)
Row 2: CH 2. 2 DC in 1st DC, and ea around. Join. (24 DC)
Row 3: CH 2. (1 DC in 1st DC, 2 DC in next DC) around. Join. (36 DC)
Row 4: CH 2. (1 DC in 1st 2 DC, 2 DC in next DC) around. Join. (48 DC)
Row 5: CH 1. (1 SC in 1st 6 DC, 2 SC in next DC) around. Join. (54 SC)
Row 6: CH 2. DC in 1st SC and ea SC around. Join (54 DC)
Row 7: CH 2. 3 DC into 1st sp (under join), (sk 2 sps, 3 DC into next sp [shell created]) around. Join. (18 shells)
Row 8 – 11: Repeat Row 7.
Row 12 – 13: CH 1. SC in 1st DC and ea DC around. (54 SC)
I debated between a heart or a bow.
Emi of the Hectanooga1 channel, has a great video for a cute little heart. It’s called the Easiest Crochet Heart, and it really is! It works up in less than 5 minutes and with different sized crochet hooks you can have a large variety of them in no time!

I choose to go with a bow for this one. I will have to write down the pattern next time I make one – as I took this white one out of my personal hair collection (from my Little Bows Candy Corn set – Available for sale in my Etsy shop). Update to come.
**Please feel free to make and sell this scarf, but please DO NOT claim this pattern as your own nor should you sell my pattern, and DO NOT re-publish my photos as your own.
