This ribbed beanie pattern for babies is lightweight and beginner friendly! It’s worked flat and then stitched together for those who want to make a cute hat for the little one in their lives, but may still be struggling with how to crochet in the round. Add a pom pom and/or applique and turn this super simple baby hat into a work of art!
Additional Notes:
You can use #4 medium weight yarn. The hat will just be heavier.
I originally choose Bernat Baby Sport because I wanted a lightweight hat and a gentle yarn for a baby’s delicate skin.
However, it is difficult to find yarn made especially for babies in Seahawks colors. So, for my son’s hat (the reason I designed this pattern), I choose to use Caron Simply Soft, which is still soft enough for a 9 month to 1-year-old.
I would recommend using the #3 lightweight yarn for babies preemie to 6 months old. Using a slightly heavier weight yarn should be okay for older babies, but I would still suggest using a soft yarn.
Also, keep in mind that all children grow at different rates. Pattern sizes are designed to fit the average size for that age group. You may need to adjust the pattern to fit your child’s head specifically.
My son happens to be small for his age. I made him a hat in the 9 months to 1-year size. At 9 months the hat is much too big for him and like all crochet products, the beanie will stretch. Thus, he may actually be able to wear this hat beyond his one year birthday.
