Make a cute crochet hat for your little one using Melissa Hassler’s pattern! Featuring a playful llama design, it’s sure to become a hit. Whether used for everyday wear or as an addition to a dress-up party, you can surprise your child with a fun accessory.
Can Make This Crochet Llama Hat for a Baby?
Absolutely! The pattern includes instructions for multiple sizes ranging from newborn to adult. This way, you can easily create an adorable accessory for your baby, your teen, or even yourself. Before getting started, measure the head circumference of the hat recipient to determine the most appropriate size.
What Stitch Do I Need to Know for This Pattern?
This fun crochet winter hat for babies is worked in joined rounds using mostly double crochet stitches. Therefore, it’s easy enough for those with basic experience who look for a fun project with some extra elements. The llama’s face, ears, and mane are done separately and then attached to the hat, giving a beautiful finished look.
What Yand and Hook Are Recommended for This Hat?
The designer suggests using medium-weight yarn, such as Nicole Studio Classic. It’s a soft aran yarn with 100% acrylic fiber content that will make your hat soft and cozy. You can also use any other yarn of your choice, but be sure to use the same weight as the recommended one – otherwise, you will get a hat in a different size.
For this project, you’re gonna need two different hook sizes. A 5.5 mm hook is used for working the hat and a 5 mm one is needed to work the ears and snout.
