This pattern includes instructions for a bow (like the hat in pink) or a pom pom (like the hat in red) so you can make it both ways.

This pattern provides instructions for 5 different sizes:
Newborn-6 months: approx. 14-16” in circumference
6-12 months: approx. 16-18” circumference
12-24 months: approx. 18-19.5” circumference
2 4 years: approx 19.5-21.5” circumference
4T-adult: approx. 21.5”+ Circumference
Each size has seperate instructions, so there’s no looking at stitch counts in parenthesis!

Full of pictures to help, this pattern is great for an intermediate-beginner crocheter! If at any time you have questions about the pattern, my email address is provided and I’m happy to help!
