Pumpkin Newborn Baby Crochet Hat Pattern

Hi Everyone!

Ever since I made the pumpkin and Jack-o-Lantern patterns, I felt like I had to make a pumpkin hat for a newborn. This is a very easy pattern that would look adorable on any new babies in your life for their Halloween costume or just another fall day.

Here is the pattern:

Materials
5.00 mm (H) Hook
Medium Weight (4) Yarn (I used Loops and Threads Impeccable and Craft Smart Value)
Scissors
Tapestry Needle
Stitch Marker

Abbreviations
CH – Chain
MR– Magic Ring
DC – Double Crochet
SLST – Slip Stitch
ST – Stitch
FO – Finish Off

Pattern
Pumpkin – Start with Brown Yarn
Round 1: CH 2. 8 DC into a MR. SLST into 2nd CH of CH 2 (8) Switch to Orange Yarn Note: Place stitch marker at the beginning of Round 2.
Round 2: CH 2. 2 DC in each ST. SLST into 2nd CH of CH 2 (16)
Round 3: CH 2. *1 DC in next ST, then 2 DC in next ST* Repeat from * to * around. SLST into 2nd CH of CH 2 (24)
Round 4: CH 2. *1 DC in next 2 STs, then 2 DC in next ST* Repeat from * to * around. SLST into 2nd CH of CH 2 (32)

Note: You can do more or less increases to make a larger or smaller hat. For example, for Round 7 you could do *1 DC in the next 5 STs, then 2 DC in the next ST* around for a larger hat. For a smaller hat you could stop increasing after Round 5.
Round 7 – 12: CH 2. DC around. SLST into 2nd CH of CH 2 (48)
FO. Weave in ends.

Row 1: CH 13. SC into 2nd CH from hook and till end.
