So my good friend is having a little baby girl next month and I decided to make her a baby hat. I had this soft yarn in a melon color that I am totally diggin on and I thought why not? So now I've made the hat and I feel like it's going to be way to small. I can't follow crochet patterns. I've tried I just don't have the mental capacity for it. Needless to say I just sort of wing it when it comes to crocheting ANYTHING. So although the hat is super cute, and I am planning on putting a flower on it, I am afraid it'll be too small and I'll look like a doofus. It's the thought that counts right?
Okay it's the next morning and I've had a chance to rethink and research a little. Some website I read said that a newborn's head circumference is around 13 inches and you should make the hat a little smaller. And that around 5 1/5 inches in height is good. So, I pulled out the top half of the hat and made it taller, added a flower and presto-a baby hat! Cute right?
