Knitting is a pleasure for kids:the result of the work can be seen within a few hours, the yarn for knitting children's clothing is very soft and pleasant, and the color scheme is delicate and pastel. Small children grow very quickly, which is why they often have to buy new things. Young mothers who know how to knit are lucky in this regard - clothes that no longer fit can either be re-knitted or knitted new ones; it takes very little time and money. And for those who have just picked up knitting needles, it will be useful to consider several options for knitted hats for newborns, with descriptions.

Newborn babies need to be protected from drafts, wind, and scorching sun, so a knitted hat for a newborn will definitely come in handy at any time of the year.

How to choose a yarn

Hats for newborns are better to connect from natural, soft, hypoallergenic yarn, for example:

wool. We knit warm winter hats from merino yarn or alpaca, as they are very soft and will not irritate the baby’s delicate skin;
Wool + acrylic fiber. Acrylic in the composition makes the yarn softer and more pleasant to wear;
acrylic. Despite the fact that this is an artificial material, high-quality acrylic is suitable for children's things. It does not cause allergies and irritation. It will make a great spring hat;
cotton. Ideal for tying a summer hat;
viscose;
linen;
bamboo;
silk.

Not suitable for children's things:

mohair;
angora;
polyamide;
Lurex.

We knit a bonnet

Chepchik tightly encircles the baby's head, goodKeeps by means of strings, and protects ears from drafts. Let's try to connect the double-sided cap with knitting needles. This is a very simple model, from which even a novice needlewoman can cope.

To work, you will need yarn of two colors. Choose the composition based on seasonality: soft wool for winter or cotton for summer.
There is no need for a pattern for this model; knitting is done by alternating stripes of front and back stitch. Abbreviations will be used in the description:

P is a series;
n - loop;
Ipt - the back loop;
Ln - the front loop;
Ig - the purest surface;
Лг - the facial smooth surface;
Ц1 - a thread of one color;
Ц2 - a thread of a different color.

Now knit as follows:

Dial 70 loops;
1 Р (Ц1) - ЛП - ИП - LP - ИП (elastic 1х1);
2 Р (Ц1) - we continue to knit an elastic band ИП - ЛП - ИП - ЛП;
3 Р (Ц2) - a thread of a different color ЛП - ИП - ЛП - ИП;
4 Р (Ц2) - ИП - ЛП - ИП - ЛП;
5, 6 Р - two more Р elastic bands Ц1.

Next, Ts1 will always be tied with facial smoothing (facial P - knit LP, purl - IP), and Ts2 - with purl face (faces, R - IP, purl - LP):

7, 8 P (Q2) - IG;
9, 10 Р (Ц1) - ЛГ;
11, 12 P (L2) - IG;
13, 14 P (U1) - LH;
15, 16 Р (Ц2) - ИГ. Break off the thread;
17 Р (Ц1) - ИП. We break off the thread.

We turn over the working cloth and divide the loops intoTwo spokes, 45 П on the left and 25 on the right 18 Р (Ц1) - 19 ЛП - 2 П simultaneously ИП. We turn the working cloth 19 Р (Ц1) - 20 ИП - 2 П simultaneously ИП. The work is inverted.

Continue knitting the middle 20 stitches untilthere will be no three P left on the sides. Next, in each P, knit 2 P together on each side in the central part, not forgetting to decrease from the sides. When 7 stitches remain on the knitting needle, close them. All that remains is to tie the strings. This can be done with crochet.

Depending on the yarn chosen, a knitted hat for a newborn can be not only warm in winter, but also light in spring.

Hat with ear flaps

Consider a master class on a warm hat with ear-flaps for toddlers. This is a winter cap, so yarn is better to take Merino, or wool + acrylic 50/50:

cast on 70 loops;
We knit six R with an elastic band 3x2;
Further, one row - IP;
From the next P cap we knit N, we can apply the pattern "Rice";
After tying in 10 cm, we begin to loosen the loops, by tying each 7 and 8 П simultaneously;
When 12-14 stitches remain on the spoke, thread the thread through them, and cut. Leave a thread longer, so that you can make a seam;
Go to the stage of knitting "ears". On the sides of the cap we type 15 P;
We will connect 6 Р elastic band 2x3;
From the next P begin to decrease, tying 2 II at the same time at the end of each P. Until there is left 1 P;
Also we knit the second "eyelet";
Using the hook, you can tie the strings.

Fishnet cap

A summer openwork cap for a newborn with knitting needles, is knitted from cotton yarn in this way:

dial 73 P;
1 P - only LP;
2 Р - only ИП;
3 Р - накид - 2 together ЛП - накид - 2 LP at the same time. In the resulting "windows" you can insert a tape, contrasting or close to the yarn, color;
4 R - IP;
5 R - LP;
6 p-Sm 3 P;
With 7 P you will need a pattern of openwork pattern;
Having tied 12 cm, begin the reduction to 56 P. To do this, close 17. P by tying two П together through an equal number П;
When there are 56 П, it is necessary to connect РЛ ЛП, and one Р - ИП;
Further, we must again uniformly add 17 П, untying two from one П;
Four P face surface;
The next P see 3P;
Two P - LH;
Close the canvas and sew. We make a lapel along the second R "windows" and fix it. Through the first F "windows" we pass the ribbon and pull off the cap. It turns out summer openwork cap with knitting needles.
