Newborn Twin Chunky Beanies – Valentine’s Inspired – Free Crochet Pattern

February 14, 2015

This adorable Newborn Twin Chunky Beanie Set will be the last part of the Valentine Inspired Photo Prop Set. You can find links to the whole collection at the bottom of this post.

Below you will find a basic beanie pattern, along with a feminine shell edged version.

These are great as photo props, or as baby shower gifts. They are also great for donating to your local hospital, as they are soft and machine washable and dryable.

Materials:
     – Less than 50 yards of Chunky Yarn (5) – I used Deborah Norville’s Serenity Chunky Yarn in the Berry Burst colorway
     – For Shell Edged Hat, additional small amount of Chunky Yarn (5) – I used Deborah Norville’s Serenity Chunky Yarn in the Pristine colorway
     – L11/8mm Crochet Hook
     – Tapestry Needle for Weaving in Ends – I like to use a #18

Time Spent:
     Each beanie works up in less than 30 minutes.

Measurements:
     These hats will fit a newborn up to 3 months (with room for a little more) – to fit a head circumference of 16-17″, and 5″ in length

Gauge:
     7 DCs x 4 Rows = 3″ Square

Abbreviations:
     HDC – Half Double Crochet
     SC – Single Crochet

Pattern Notes:
     Hats are worked in a continuous round, without joining unless otherwise stated.

Invisible Join:

Cut your thread, pull the loop out from where your
crochet hook and then thread your yarn end into your yarn needle.
Insert your needle under both loops of the first
stitch that you are joining to.
You will see in this image,
the beginning/first half of a stitch.
Take your needle down through the
center of the previous stitch.
When I take my needle down,
I also like to begin the weaving process.
Tug on your piece to ensure that the
“stitch” that you just created with the
invisible join is even with the rest.

Basic Hat Pattern:

     Chain 3, join to form a ring. Chain 1, work 6 HDC into the ring. (6 HDC)

R2: Work 2 HDC in each HDC around (12 HDC)

R3: Work (2 HDC in the next HDC, and 1 HDC in the following HDC) around (18 HDC)

R4: Work (2 HDC in the next HDC, and 1 HDC in each of the following 2 HDC) around (24 HDC)

R5: Work (2 SC in the next HDC, and 1 SC in each of the following 3 HDC) around (30 SC)

R6 – 10: Work 1 HDC in each stitch around (30 HDC)

R11: Work 1 SC in each stitch around (30 SC). Join to first SC.

Fasten Off, and Weave in Ends.

Shell Edged Girl Hat Pattern:

     Chain 3, join to form a ring. Chain 1, work 6 HDC into the ring. (6 HDC)

R2: Work 2 HDC in each HDC around (12 HDC)

R3: Work (2 HDC in the next HDC, and 1 HDC in the following HDC) around (18 HDC)

R4: Work (2 HDC in the next HDC, and 1 HDC in each of the following 2 HDC) around (24 HDC)

R5: Work (2 SC in the next HDC, and 1 SC in each of the following 3 HDC) around (30 SC)

R6 – 8: Work 1 HDC in each stitch around (30 HDC)

R9: Work 1 SC in each HDC around (30 SC). Join to 1st SC with new color.

R10: In Pristine colorway, SC in each SC around. Join to 1st SC.

R11: Chain 1. Work a SC decrease, skip 2 stitches, 5 DC in the next stitch, skip 2 stitches, (SC in the next stitch, skip 2 stitches, 5 DC in the next stitch, skip 2 stitches) around. Join to 1st SC – here I worked the invisible join. Photo tutorial for this found in Pattern Notes section. 

Fasten Off, and Weave in Ends.

Welcome!

Hey! I'm Alexandra, the blogger and creator behind EyeLoveKnots and On Rockwood Lane! My passion is being creative. My favorite thing to do is crochet, and you will almost always find me having a cup of coffee and working on a new crochet project, but when I'm not doing that, you might find me out at a local park rollerblading, baking some fresh cookies, picking veggies in the garden or re-decorating for a new season or holiday. My two cats are great supervisors for all my adventures (minus the being outside because they think it's too hot in Florida to be anywhere but inside), and make sure I take plenty of breaks.
