BAND INSTRUCTIONS

Crochet Hook: I/9/5.50mm
18″ Doll: Ch 5

Toddler & Child: Ch 7

Teen/Adult Small & Adult Medium/Large: Ch 9

Row 1: Working in the back hump of the foundation chain, sc in 2nd ch from hook, sc in each ch across. Turn. (4, 6, 6, 8, 8 sts)
Row 2: Ch 1, BLO sc in each st across. Turn.
Repeat Row 2 until the band (unstretched) measures the following: 18″ Doll (9″); Toddler (15”); Child (16”), Teen/Adult Small (17”), Adult Medium/Large (19”)
Band Seam: Bring Row 1 to meet the last row, ch 1, (sl st BLO of last row to BLO of 1st row) repeat across. (4, 6, 6, 8, 8 sts) Turn band inside out. Continue on to Body of Hat.

BODY OF HAT

Crochet Hook: J/10/6.00mm
TIP for Row 1: Count how many rows you worked for the band. Subtract that number from the number of sts you need to work in Rnd 1. This number is the number of increases you need to work around your band. Example: I’m making the adult med/lg and my band has 68 rows & at the end of Rnd 1 I need to have 76 sts. So for my math I have 76 sts – 68 rows = 8 increases for Rnd 1. For Rnd 1 I need to work 8 increases of 2 sc in side of next row to increase to 76 sts.
Rnd 1: Working into the sides of the rows from the band, ch 1, sc (48, 60, 64, 72, 76 sts) evenly around band. Join w/ a sl st to 1st sc. (48, 60, 64, 72, 76 sts)
Rnd 2: Ch 1, sc in same st as ch 1, ch 1, skip next st, (sc in next st, ch 1, skip next st) repeat around. Join w/ a sl st to 1st sc. (48, 60, 64, 72, 76 sts) *ch-1 spaces are counted as a stitch
Rnd 3: Ch 2 (counts as 1st st and 1st ch-1), skip 1st sc, sc in next ch-1 sp, (ch 1, skip next sc, sc in next ch-1 sp) repeat around. Join w/ a sl st to the 1st ch of the rnd.
Rnd 4: Ch 1, sc in first ch-1 sp, ch 1, skip next sc, (sc in next ch-1 sp, ch 1, skip next sc) repeat around. Join w/ a sl st to 1st sc.

18″ Doll: Rep Rnds 3 – 4 (ending w/ a rep of rnd 3) until hat measures 2-1/4” then continue to Crown Shaping Doll.
