Materials:

This pattern uses a 4mm hook and 8 ply wool (although I used 12 ply because I had some super fancy 12 ply lying around just begging to be used). It is written in American crochet notation.

Petals (make 11)

With red wool

Attach the wool to the brim of the beanie

Row 1: sc 7, turn (7 stitches)

Row 2 – 8: sc in each stitch (7 stitches)

Row 9: decrease the first two stitches together, sc in the next three stitches, decrease the last two stitches together (5 stitches)

Row 10: decrease the first two stitches together, sc in the next stitch, decrease the last two stitches together (3 stitches)

Row 11: decrease the remaining three stitches together (1 stitch)

Fasten off, weave in end.

The eleventh petal will have 8 stitches in row 1 and thereafter instead of 7 (because 11 x 7 is only 77, not 78, so the last petal needs an extra stitch so there is no gap)

Finishing

Block the petals and then sew the tips of three of them to the body of the beanie so they don’t get in the baby’s eyes.
