Crochet Toddler Beanie Hat w/Flower

As promised in my previous post, here is the modified crochet pattern I used for E.'s toddler beanie hat:

This is a modification of "Soft Scallop Chemo Cap" copyright Sandra Huffines at this site:

Toddler Beanie Pattern(make adjustments for size by changing hook size or make larger by adding an increase every 4st after round 5)

• Fits 2-4 yrs, Hook size H, sport yarn
• Round 1: Ch5, join, work 8dc into ring, join
• Round 2: 2dc in ea st around, join (16dc)
• Round 3: *Dc in next st, 2dc in next st* around, join (24dc)

• Rnd 15: Turn, slst around entire cap to keep from curling.
• Note:  I crochet a little loose, so I used a size J hook; then added an increase after round 5 - *dc in next 4st, 2dc in next*, then adjusted the following rows accordingly)

Flower Embellishment (pattern by my Aunt S.) - Hook size J:

• ch5, join
• 12sc in ring, join

How many scallops do you have going around the edge?

"Ea" is a general abbrevation for "each." "Hdc" is a crochet abbreviation - half double crochet. http://www.craftyarncouncil.com/crochet.html

Can you tell me how to "make adjustments accordingly?" I have an almost three year old that I am eager to make this for. Thank you

[Pauline]

Many thanks. I've been searching for a pattern like this for my 2 year old great niece who is losing her hair after chemo. I hope to find lots of hat/beanie patterns with decoration so she has lots of choice.

Just wondering, if i can use this information for my research paper's project. However, i admire the way you present your words ... Thank u anywys..

I love this beanie! It is so cute and femanine. I made some for all my nieces. My first attempt was also too small, for a newborn's head. I am also a tight crocheter. So when I made a mental note to crochet it looser, it came out perfect! Remember that all you tight crocheters out there

Love her hat,wish i can do this to my daughter.
