  5. Very cute need to get one done as my daughter just received a baby shower invitation. As for the lady asking about the 16" circumference everyone crochets different. I tend to crochet to tight and every babies head is different.

  6. Hi Olivia, I love your pattern! Thank you so much for sharing it with us 🙂 My hat seemed to turn out slightly small… I was wondering how I might size up the pattern.

    Thanks again!!

    • Hi! I often have my hats turn out "too small" too. I have found that if I use a hook a mm larger than called for, it helps me get the proper size. I found a "sizer" for hats online, too, and often consult that if I don't have any little "heads" around to try it on.

  8. Thanks for the pattern! It's adorable. I felt it was a little small so I did an additional increase on round 5 and ended up with 32 stitches. I hope this fits the little one on the way!

  11. I Love the Pattern but I'm not sure, should I skip the one stitch that closes up the puffstitch in the next rounds? Otherwise i'd too many stitches. But the skipping leaves a gap between each stitch..

  14. I made this in 2015, but do not remember this: “Crochet 6 Puff Stitches into the first chain you made. Slip Stitch into the top of chain 3. You should have 6 puff stitches now.” For some reason this part is confusing me. I am making this tomorrow.
