Pattern Notes
- Beginning chains do not count as stitches
- 1st stitches always start in the same space as beginning chain.
- This hat is worked from the top-down
- I do not suggest adding real buttons to hats given to small babies. For baby sizes use crochet buttons or 3D fabric paint in place of real buttons. Crocheted buttons can be sewn on and completely fastened, making them a safer choice.
Special Stitches
