My Inspiration:
I love NO-SEW projects! there is nothing I find more annoying than sewing multiple joins and ends in on a small project.
My Very Forgiving Beanie and the process of designing it, inspired me to adapt it to younger children, with a bonnet option!

PLEASE NOTE: the instructions below only cover the basic Newborn size using DK weight yarn!
SKILL Level – Easy/Intermediate
About Pattern: Following the given set of generic instructions will help you make a no-sew crochet baby bonnet. The Pattern essentially doesn’t have to match the gauge. It can be adapted with easy calculations.
COMPLETED SIZE: The Instructions are generic. However, there are 5 sizes that are covered in the PDF (paid pattern).
New-born, 0-3 months, 3-6 months, 6-9 months and 9-12 months.

Materials:
Yarn of choice – I have used 2 types of yarns in the featured projects: The instructions given below for medium weight yarn: 10 WPI.

Gauge:
When we work the first 2 repeats of the instructions, measure the width. This will help you determine the number of chains you will need to make.
TIP to customize – will be highlighted. So, if you change the number of stitches to match your customization, then follow highlighted instructions!
Stitches used: US crochet terms
Pre-requisite: How to crochet around a ring.
ch - chain yo – yarn over sc – single crochet
dc – double crochet ss – Slip Stitch hdc – Half double crochet
RS – Right side of work WS – Wrong side of work
Special Stitches:
Cross DC stitch: This completed stitch is worked over 3 stitches as follows:
Skip the next 2 stitches, dc in the next stitch, ch1, dc in the first skipped stitch.
hdc2tog – yo, insert hook into the stitch, pull up loop (3 loops on hook),
yo, insert hook into next stitch, pull up a loop (5 loops on hook)
yo and pull through all loops.
PLEASE NOTE:
· Ch1 does NOT count as a stitch.
· Ch3 counts as dc. Hence 3rd chain of ch3 mentioned is considered as top of dc stitch.
· Ch2 counts as hdc. Hence 2nd chain of ch2 mentioned is considered as top of hdc stitch.

LET’S START!!!
Instructions for the Base Band:
Newborn
Ch 24
This gives you a stitch count of 4 dc + 6 Cross DC Stitches.
TIP for customization: to add additional width, increase the stitch count by 3 chains (for every additional CROSS DC stitch)
Row 1 (RS): dc in the 4th chain from the hook (together counts as 2 dc stitches).
Make a Cross DC Stitch (across 3 chains) a total of 6 times,
Make a dc in each of the last 2 chains. TURN.
- 2 dc + 6 Cross DC Stitches + 2 dc
Row 2 (WS): ch 1 (doesn’t count as stitch)
Make 1 sc in each stitch, and 1 sc in each ch1 space across. TURN.
- 22 sc
Row 3 (RS): ch3 (counts as dc) and dc in the next stitch.
Make a Cross DC Stitch (across 3 chains) a total of 6 (7, 8, 9, 10) times,
Make a dc in each of the last 2 chains. TURN.
- 2 dc + 6 Cross DC Stitches + 2 dc
REPEAT Row2 and Row 3 – ending on an sc row; till the height of the band when folded over measures approximately 5.25”

· 2 sc on the side of the Row 2 repeats.
Make second loop: ch 60, sc into the first unworked loop from the beginning chain.

At corner D, sc in unworked loop, ch1.
Make a sc edging from D to A – ending with sc at Corner A.
· 1 sc on the side of the Row 3 repeats
· 2 sc on the side of the Row 2 repeats.
DO NOT TURN. Slip Stitch to join to the ch1 space at Corner D.
Reducing the crown of the bonnet:
We will now be working in rounds.
Round 1: ch 2 (counts as hdc),
Repeat (hdc, hdc2tog) * around and join to the top of starting ch2.
Irrespective of what stitch you end on.
REPEAT Round 1 to decrease; till the number of stitches to approximately 6 stitches.
Fasten off with a long tail. Weave this tail through all the stitches in the last round and pull tight to close the top of the bonnet.
Fasten on the wrong side of the beanie to tighten the join and weave in all the ends.
