Freebie Friday! Blythe Crocheted Hat

I whipped this little hat up for my Blythe doll Claire and thought I would write down what I did so anyone could make it! Keep in mind this is my first attempt at a crochet pattern! This should also fit any American Girl I think as the dimensions of their heads are the same as Blythe dolls I hear! I actually started out using MK’s Beanie pattern for Pullip dolls and veered in my own direction to end up with a beret!

Materials:

Hook: K

Yarn: Small amount of heavy worsted weight yarn. Sample made with Plymouth Bella Colour in color #16. It only took a very small amount to make the hat I will probably use the rest to make her a matching dress.

Notions: removable stitch marker, tapestry needles.

Abbreviations:

hdc: Half Double Crochet                                                                                                        sc: single crochet

Make a slip knot and work 6 sc into it, pull the slip knot to tighten. Mark beginning of the round!

1. work 2 hdc into each sc (12 stitches)
2. * work 1 hdc, then inc 1* , repeat to end of row
3. *work 2 hdc, then inc 1* , repeat to end of row
4. *work 3 hdc, then inc 1 * , repeat to end of row
5. *work 4 hdc, then inc 1* , repeat to end of row
6. *work 5 hdc , then inc 1* , repeat to end of row
7. Work 2 rounds even in hdc.
8. *work 5 sc, then decrease by 1*, repeat to end of row
9. *work 3 sc, then decrease by 1*, repeat to end of row
10. *work 2 sc then decrease by 1* , repeat to end of row
11. work 1-2 rows in sc as desired for depth.

Break yarn, and weave in the ends!

Show it off on your girl!
