My son's pre-kindergarten class will have a Dr Seuss party next week at school and thinking ahead to that day inspired this little pattern for my younger daughter.
This pattern will make a 0-3 Month size hat and leg warmers.
SL ST = Slip Stitch
DC = Double Crochet
CH = Chain
This is a chunky style hat so you will need a large hook. I used N (9.00MM) and you'll work two stands of yarn simultaneously.
Hat:
Beginning with red: Magic Circle, CH 3, 10 DC in the round. (10 DC)
Round 2: Switch to white. CH 3. 2 DC in each DC. (20 DC)
Round 3: Switch to Red. CH 3. *2 DC in first. DC in next two DC*. *repeat around. (27 DC)
Round 4: Switch to white. CH 3. DC in each DC (27 DC)
Round 5: Swith to Red. CH 3. DC in each DC (27 DC)
Round 6: Switch to white. CH 3. DC in each DC (27 DC)
Round 7: Switch to teal. CH 3. DC in each DC (27 DC). Finish off & weave in ends
Pom Pom:
Make the pom pom using the teal yarn. I use a can of frosting and wrap the yarn that way. I like the size that the can produces. If you do not know how to make a pom pom there are some very helpful videos on you tube like this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AS5innWg8Eg
Once the pom pom is assembled, sew it on to the top of the hat.
Leg Warmers (make 2):
Using the teal yarn CH 14. Join with SL ST to first CH. Be sure not to twist the CH. CH 3
