Crochet Ribbed Preemie Hat

Crochet Ribbed Preemie Hat is not only an adorable accessory but also a heartfelt gesture for welcoming the tiniest of bundles into the world. The ribbed texture gives the hat a snug fit, keeping the precious little head warm and cozy. Crafting these tiny hats is a wonderful way to show care and support for premature babies and their families. With each stitch, you are creating a piece of comfort and hope. Whether you are a seasoned crocheter or a beginner looking for a heartwarming project, making these crochet ribbed preemie hats is a delightful way to spread some love in the world.

Materials:

Sport/baby weight yarn
Size G/4.25mm hook

fpdc = front post double crochet
bpdc = back post double crochet

R1: 11 dc in magic loop, join

R2: ch2, (fpdc in dc, dc in same st) around, join (22 sts)

R3: ch2, (2fpdc in fpdc, bpdc in dc) around, join (33 sts)

R4: ch2, (fpdc in fpdc, dc, fpdc in fpdc, bpdc in bpdc) around, join (44 sts)

R5: ch2, (fpdc in fpdc, bpdc in dc, fpdc in fpdc, bpdc in bpdc) around, join

R6-14: ch2, (fpdc in fpdc, bpdc in bpdc) around, join

R15: reverse sc around, join

Fasten off and weave in ends.

UK termed version:

To join each round: join with slip stitch around the first front post treble crochet of previous round (or beginning ch 2 of the first round), ch 2, then fptr down into the same front post treble crochet you just did the slip stitch to (again, this will be a ch 2 for the beginning round). This pushes the ch 2 behind the fptr you just made (ignore the ch 2, it doesn’t exist). This isn’t necessary, but it looks better than a standard ch2 and makes the join less obvious. The site I found this method at is linked above the US termed version.
