Sometimes I see myself laughing all alone not that I'm crazy but it's all because of my silly memories with my little boy. It was late at night when we met with his friends to give the beanie that I made as Eid gift. Little Abdurahman was not used on wearing headwear, so when I tried to put it on him he kept escaping and my son who is my accomplice held his friend tightly on the arms and forced his friend to wear the beanie. It was a funny moment that I've witnessed and a sweet memory that I will tell my son when he grow up.
And here I've written a pattern of a beanie that he requested and this is actually the fifth one that I've made for him.
I like it how my son's beanies are so unique that it gives distinction. And the proof with that is when I met this woman from the same city and told me that we look familiar and she think we've met at the same Masjid from last year cause she recognized my son's beanie. Here's that beanie...
Anyway, stop with the stories and let's start making a beanie.
The size will fit three years old up to ten years old.
Materials : Crochet hook 5/0 3.00mm
DK light acrylic yarn
Stitch mark
Measuring tape
Scissor
US term abbreviations
ch : chain
sk : skip
st : stitch
sts : stitches
sl st : slip stitch
sc : single crochet
dc : double crochet
fpdc : front post double crochet
bpdc : back post double crochet
2dc : two double crochet in one stitch
Special stitch : Bead stitch
dc, (yarn over, insert hook around the post of the dc that you just made, pull up a loop) repeat 3 x, now you'll have a 7 loops on the hook, yarn over and pull through all 7 loops on the hook.
Hint:
-In this beanie we are going to start working on rounds and will end working on rows.
-We will work on a continuous round.
-And you will notice that I didn't end the round with sl st and I didn't start the round with chains this is because we don't want a seam line in our project.
-That's why it's very important to use stitch mark in the first st when starting a round.
-The numbers inside of the parenthesis at the end of every round and row are the total number of sts that you should have.
Hint: Please do not forget to use stitch mark in your first stitch when starting a round.
We'll work on continuous round, that means no sl st at the end, no chains in the beginning, no turning and you'll always work your first stitch in the first stitch of the previous round.
Round 1 : ch 3, 12dc in the the third chain from the hook. (12sts)
Round 2 : 2dc in every sts. (24sts)
Round 3 : (2dc, dc) repeat 12x. (36sts)
Round 4 : (2dc, dc in the next 2 sts) 12 x. (48sts)
Round 5: (2dc, dc in the next 3 sts) 12 x. (60sts)
Round 6 : (2dc, dc in the next 4 sts) 12 x. (72sts)
Round 7 : (2dc, dc in the next 5 sts) 12 x. (84sts)
Round 8 : (2dc , dc in the next 6 sts) 12 x. (96sts)
Hint : At this moment your crown width should be 6 inches. And if not please continue increasing until you reach the right size. Follow the pattern above on how I increase.
Round 9 : dc in the next 96 sts. (96 sts)
Round 10 : repeat round 9
Round 11 : dc in the next 96 sts, turn. (96sts)
Now we're going to start working on rows.
