How to crochet a baby hat with a bib
Preparing for work
In order to get started, you first need to select yarn and a hook that matches it in size. Basic recommendations for choosing threads for a children's hat.
The yarn must contain natural thread. Such as merino, llama, camel, yak wool, and Angora rabbit fluff. This will ensure the finished product is warm.
ATTENTION! When choosing natural threads, it is worth considering that they can be “prickly”, that is, they can cause a tingling sensation.
As a result, the child may refuse to wear such a product. And sometimes threads can cause itching on the skin. To avoid this, You should choose yarn created specifically for knitting children's products.
IMPORTANT! Accurately measure the volume of the head on which the hat is knitted. Correct measurement will ensure a tight fit.
Once the yarn has been selected, you need to select a hook for it. Any yarn has a factory label. It is marked with a hook or knitting needles that are suitable for the thickness of a given thread.
Important! It’s worth buying two or three hooks right away. The first is the one indicated on the label, the second and third are one size larger and smaller.
This is due to the fact that each knitter has her own knitting density. And if the knitting turns out to be too tight, then you should change the hook to a larger one. Thus, the finished product will not fall off. Additionally, the edge may require a smaller hook.

IMPORTANT! During the knitting process, it is necessary to constantly monitor the size. It is advisable to do this by trying the hat on the child.
After reaching the required height of the hat, leave approximately 2 or 3 cm for the elastic band. After this, divide the work into two parts. Set aside the front (front) part; do not continue knitting on it.
Back of the head
Continue the occipital part in the same columns until approximately the beginning of the neck. After this, increase the number of loops on both sides symmetrically so that it is enough to overlap the two sides and form a fastener. Here you must definitely try on the hat while adding columns, so as not to miss the size.
After this, knit the back part together with the stitches added on both sides to form a front clasp. Knit in the same pattern as the hat. Continue knitting to neck height. That is, until the shoulder line is reached.
