Crochet Newborn Beanie with Bow


I'm addicted to crochet and knitting (that's not a surprise). I have to do one or the other all the time. So I decided to make this quick & easy baby beanie. I thought about adding a pom but I decided to make a cute little bow instead.

Supplies:

Worsted Weight Yarn - in 2 colors 
6mm Crochet Hook
Tapestry Needle
Scissors
Tape Measure

Abbreviation:

ch - chain
sl st - slip stithc
st(s) - stitch(es)
sc - single crochet
dc - double crochet

PATTERN (beginning chain does not count as a chain stitch):

Round 1 - Start with a magic ring OR ch4, sl st to the first ch to form a circle.
ch2, 12dc into ring/circle. sl st to the beginning dc (12 sts)

Round 2 (increase) - ch2, 2 dc into same st, 2 dc into each st around. sl st to the beginning dc (24 sts)

Round 3 (increase) - ch2, 1 dc into same st, *2 dc into next st, 1 dc into next st. Repeat from * around ending with 2 dc in last st. sl st to the beginning dc (36 sts). It should now measure 4"-4.25"



Round 4-7 - ch2, 1 dc into same st, 1 dc into each st around. sl st to the beginning dc (36 sts)

Round 8-10 (switch color) - ch1, 1 sc into same st. 1 sc into each st around. do not sl st to beginning sc. Start next round by doing a sc into the beginning sc and work in a continuous round for a total of 3 rounds. You may use a stitch marker to mark the the beginning of the round. sl st in last st at the end of round 10.

Weave in all ends.

BOW: The bow is adjustable. Make it as long and wide as you'd like. 

Row 1 - ch as many chains as you need for the length of the bow. sc into the 2nd ch from the hook and in every st until the end. ch1 & turn.

Row 2 - 1 sc into each st across. ch1 & turn.

Row 3 - 1 sc into each st across. 

Trim - ch1 1 sc all the way around the edge of the bow. sl st to the top of the first sc.

Wrap yarn around middle (as thick & tight/loose as you want). Tie in the back of bow leaving a tail for sewing. Using a tapestry needle, attach bow to beanie.
