Helping our users. ​Crochet Newborn Hat.

You’ll need:

Small amount of worsted in two contrasting colors (Hobby Lobby’s “I Love This Yarn” or Lion Brand’s “Vanna’s Choice”);

Crochet hook 5 mm.

Notes:

Ch 2 does not count as starting DC. (Note: Originally, I had incorrectly stated that it does. Sorry for the confusion!) When joining, join to the first DC, not to the top of the chain.
