Pattern
Cap
Round 1: Make a magic ring, ch 1, 6 sc in ring. Join with sl st to first sc. (6 sts)
Round 2: Ch 1, 2 sc in each sc around. Join with sl st. (12 sts)
Round 3: Ch 1, (2 sc in next sc, 1 sc in next sc) repeat around. Join with sl st. (18 sts)
Rounds 4-11: Continue increasing evenly by adding 6 sts each round, maintaining the pattern until the circle fits toddler head circumference (approx. 18” in diameter).
Star Brim
Round 12: Ch 1, (sc in next 3 sts, bobble in next st) repeat around, increasing at star points as necessary to create shape. Continue until outer edge measures approx. 22” (working into the round to secure consistency).
Round 13: Change to coral, ch 1, sc in each st around, increasing at star points to maintain the shape. Join with sl st.
Round 14: Ch 1, (bobble in next st, sc in next 3 sts) repeat around, maintaining the star shape by adding stitches at the points if necessary.
Round 15: Repeat Round 13.
Finishing
Fasten off and weave in all ends using the tapestry needle. Shape the hat by lightly steaming the brim so that the bobble pattern is accentuated and the star shape is defined.
