Selecting soft yarn and hook
Choosing yarn for a product for an adult is easier because you don’t need to take into account some features. For example, When choosing yarn for children, be sure to look for softness. How pleasant is this fiber to the body?
Pure cotton ones aside, they do not warm and are not so soft. Also, in this case, the yarn should be absolutely hypoallergenic.
You should not take risks even if the child has not had an allergic reaction. Of course, the thread should be warm and not prick. There are so many criteria and all of them are taken into account in the line of special children's yarn. Additionally, you can consult the seller.
It will be easier to choose a hook. It just has to match the thread itself. And all the subtleties regarding the model are up to the taste of the master.
Sample
Before creating a hat for a boy, you will need to knit a square according to the chosen pattern. Use it to determine the knitting density, how many loops and how many rows does 10 cm have?
As a result, you will get only two numbers, and they will then help you calculate how many loops there will be around the circumference of the hat, and how many rows will need to be knitted in height.
How to crochet a hat for a boy?
A master and a beginner can knit a hat for a boy. Simply follow the instructions. First choose your yarn and hook. Then knit the sample and determine the knitting density.
Measure the head circumference and depth for the hat. The circle is along the line of the forehead. And the depth from the lobe of one ear to the lobe of the other ear (divide the resulting number by two and make the appropriate allowances).
Depth allowances will always depend on the cap model. Below, two models are presented and the surcharges for the depth of the product are noted in them. Let's look at detailed diagrams describing hats for boys for the winter.
Warm crocheted winter hat without ears
A very bright and fashionable hat for a boy. You can use a pompom as decoration. Children also love things with cartoon appliqués. Time to complete the work is from 3 hours. If desired, this new product can be made in just one evening, even for a beginner.
To work you will need:
- yarn of different shades;
- hook according to the size of the thread (for children's pekhorka 3 is better).
Measurements
Take measurements from the baby. For the circumference, there is no need to add or subtract anything, since the cap will take away 1-1.5 cm due to the double-sided technology.For depth, you should first multiply the resulting figure by 2, since the product is double-sided. And make an increase of 5 cm so that it covers the ears well and sticks out a little along the top of the head.
Sample
Knit a small square according to the pattern of the fabric and calculate the density of the knitting. To do this, just put a ruler and count how many loops there are in 10 cm, and how many rows there are. Then compare everything with the received measurements and you can start making the product.
crown
The hat starts from the top of the head and therefore the knitting begins with a circle pattern. Make additions until the circumference is 3 cm smaller than the measurement for a boy. Next knit to the required height. Leave space for the second crown the same length as the first crown. After the cylinder, knit the pattern in the reverse order (instead of adding, make decreases).
Pompon
Cast on a pompom from multi-colored yarn. The length of the thread should be about 8 cm. After tying the threads in the center, you can carefully trim the threads on the pompom for an even product.
Harness
From the outside, this winter model does not resemble a double hat. All this is due to the binding around the edge. To do this, you need to straighten the hat so that the two bottoms touch and make two rows of contrasting thread of single crochets along the folded edge.
Important! It is better to make the binding with a smaller crochet hook, this will make the hat tighter along the elastic band.
All that remains is to sew on the pompom and the product is ready.
Warm crochet hat with ears
A charming model of a hat for a boy with high columns and one crochet.
To work you will need:
- warm yarn of two colors;
- hook according to yarn size;
- buttons for decoration.
Measurements
You need to measure your head circumference using a cm tape.There is no need to add or subtract anything, since it is better for such a hat to have an additional fleece lining. The second mark will be depth. It does not require increases. But another size here will be the ears of the hat themselves. Measure from the earlobe down to the required length.
Sample
Knit a square according to the fabric pattern and calculate the knitting density for it. Then convert the measurements from cm to loops and rows, and you can make the product.
crown
Knitting the crown occurs according to the pattern from the center to the periphery. Make single crochet stitches and increase in each row. Stop adding 4 cm before measuring the circumference. Since without additions the diagram will still have several rows of expansion.
The basis
Rows of double crochet stitches to the desired depth. Additionally, from the line of the ears and along the back of the hat, knit two rows. So that the neck is well covered with a hat.
Ears
Mark the places for the ears. The knitting runs from the elastic of the hat down. For width, use single crochet stitches. Sew rows and start decreasing according to the following pattern: 14-12-10-8-6-6-5.
Harness
Use a contrasting thread to tie using simple single crochet stitches. Continue with a square fabric along the front side in the forehead area for hemming. Continue with single crochets for 11 rows and make a smoothing in the last row, closing the outer loops.
It is advisable to make the lining from soft and warm fabric, and fleece will do this perfectly. Make a small fleece hat and sew it into the finished knitted product.
At this point, the model is ready and you can decorate it with beautiful buttons.
These cute hats can be made using a crochet hook in just one evening at home.
