I started making Janelle a new hat. I found the pattern at crochetpatterncentral.com. Its a great site with lots of free patterns. I've posted the directions below. Here is a picture of what the hat will look like. I used an F hook (couldn't find my G), and ch 30 instead of 22.
I'll post pictures when mine is done.
Use Size G hook 1/2 oz of sport weight yarn
(To make the treble crochet (tr) do the following: YO twice, insert hook in next sc. YO and pull up a loop (4 loops on hook), (YO and draw through 2 loops on hook) 3 times. PUSH the tr to the right side on hat.)
Hat is made from one side to the other (not from the cuff up) It should end up with a 10.5" diameter before being stitched up the side.
Ch 18 (22 newborn) (This forms the height of the hat )
Row 1 (Right side): Sc in 2nd ch from hook and in each ch across. Ch 1 and turn.
Row 2: Sc in first sc, (tr in next sc, sc in next st) across. Ch 1 and turn.
Row 3: Sc in each stitch across row.
Repeat rows 2 and 3 for 32 (36) rows. End off leaving 12" tail of yarn Finishing: Gather top by weaving in and out of the sts. Pull top tightly. Fold hat in half and whip st side seam. Brim: Add yarn at bottom of hat and sc in each st around to form brim. Sc around for 3 rows. End off and weave in all yarn ends.
You can make this hat larger or smaller by using a longer or shorter chain to start, and making more or fewer rows.
POM POM Wrap yarn around fingers till it looks 'fat enough'. Then remove it wrap 2 strands of yarn in the middle, tie tightly in a double knot. Now snip thru the loops, it's usually is a bit ragged at this point, so hold it over the garbage and snip till it is fluffy and even :-) To make it even more fluffy, separate the individual strands in the yarn.
