Gauge:<\/strong> 22 stitches and 30 rows = 4 inches in stockinette<\/p>\n

Materials:<\/strong>
\nDK weight baby yarn (see chart above for amount)
\nSize 6 (4 mm) 40\u2033 circular needle (for magic loop<\/a>) or<\/strong><\/em> set of size 6 (4 mm) double pointed needles
\nYarn needle<\/p>\n

Join to knit in the round. Divide stitches between double pointed needles or needles for a magic loop. Divide with multiples of 12 on each needle.<\/p>\n

Repeat each instruction across the round:<\/p>\n

Rnds 1, 3, 5: k5, (ssk, yo) 3 times, k1
\nRnds 2, 4, 6: p6, k5, p1
\nRnds 7, 9, 11: (yo, k2tog) 3 times, k6
\nRnds 8, 10, 12: k5, p7<\/p>\n

Repeat these twelve rounds until the hat measures the desired height for size:
\nSmall Preemie – 2.5″ high
\nPreemie – 3.25″ high
\nNewborn – 4.25″ high
\n6 month – 5″ high
\n12 month – 5.75″ high

\nRnd 1: ssk, k2tog, k1, (ssk, yo) 3 times, k1
\nRnd 2: p4, k5, p1
\nRnd 3: k3, ssk, ssk, yo, ssk, k1
\nRnd 4: p4, k3, p1
\nRnd 5: k2tog, k2, ssk, k2
\nRnd 6: p3, k2, p1
\nRnd 7: k2tog, k1, ssk, k1
\nRnd 8: k1, p3
\nRnd 9: k2tog, ssk<\/p>\n

For Newborn and 6 month sizes also do this Rnd 10: k2tog<\/p>\n

For 12 month and Toddler sizes also do this Rnd 10 and 11:
\nRnd 10: k1, p1
\nRnd 11: k2tog<\/p>\n

Cut the yarn with several inches to work with.\u00a0 With a yarn needle, pull the yarn through all the remaining loops, secure and weave in end.<\/p>\n
