Crochet Blues Clues Hat Pattern

Crochet Blues Clues Hat 

My daughter loves watching Blues Clues! I made her this Blues Clues Dog Crochet hat for her and she loves wearing it!


If you tell others about my work, please only link back to my blog, but don't copy my pattern to your site. Also you can sell anything you make from my patterns, but don't sell the free pattern. Thank you!


Newborn Bulky Hat, instead of a D hook, Use a J hook with this pattern: http://www.amyscrochetpatterns.com/2015/01/crochet-baby-0-3-months-football-hat.html, when the increase stops, then continue the pattern as written in this pattern with the J hook.

Light Blue, dark blue, white, and blue yarn
H hook, G hook, Yarn needle

Abbreviations: 
dc=double crochet
sc=single crochet 
sl st=slip stitch 
ch=chain
hdc=half double crochet

Made this for a toddler-preschooler (12 months-3 yrs), 18"-20" head cir., hat length=7" =G hook
