Crochet Basic hdc Toddler Beanie Free Pattern
Crochet Basic hdc Toddler Beanie Pattern by Crochet For You.
I followed my own hat sizing guide and made this basic hdc toddler beanie. Beyond the basic, I added white striped ribbed edging with fpdc and bpdc stitches. Finally, I added my favorite Crochet Daisy Flower as an embellishment on the hat. 🙂

If I wanted to make a newborn hat what round would I stop at?
Linda
Your stitch count doesn’t match the actual number of stitches. Starting in Round 1, you said to do 12 hdc and the end says (8 st). The same for each round. They don’t match. I’ve made enough crochet hats to be able to fix this but a beginner would be confused. I love the pattern otherwise.

Hi Linda, thank you so much for letting me know about it. It was a typo I fixed and updated the pattern. 🙂
Linda
Are rows 6 and 7 supposed to be the same number of stitches? The instructions are the same but stitch count is different.
Erangi Udeshika
Hi Linda thank you so much again! Round 7 is also increasing with 5 hdc in each and 2 hdc in one st. So there are 56 sts total. I fixed it and updated. 🙂
