Notes:

• ·        Sizes are named based on average sizes for age. For best results make the size which best correlates with the desired finished circumference (if known).

• ·        Use a removable stitch marker during the first couple rounds in order to keep track of the beginning of the round.

• ·        This pattern includes an optional flower. Details are on the last page. You will need a ½” or ¾” button.

• ·        The flower pattern can be found here: http://www.action-hero.net/blog/2004/09/crocheted-flower-pattern.html

• ·        The pattern starts using the magic loop. I good tutorial for this technique can be found here: http://www.crochet-world.com/blog/?p=7618

Newborn

Rnd 1: 6 sc inside magic loop (6 sc)

Rnd 2: *2 sc in each sc* around (12 sc)

Rnd 3: *sc in next sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (18 sc)

Rnd 4: *sc in next 2 sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (24 sc)

Rnd 5: *sc in next 3 sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (30 sc)

Rnd 6: *sc in next 4 sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (36 sc)

Rnd 7: *sc in next 5 sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (42 sc)

Rnd 8: *sc in next 6 sc, 2 sc in next sc* around (48 sc)

Rnd 9: ch 3 (counts as dc), sk next 2 sc, (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in next sc, sk next 2 sc, *dc in next sc, sk next 2 sc, (2dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in next sc, sk next 2 sc* repeat from * to * around sl st to 3rd ch of beg ch 3

Rnd 10: ch 1 sc in same st and each dc and ch-1 space around, sl st to join (48 sc)

Rnd 11: sl st to sc above the next ch-1 space (that should be 3 sl st), ch 3 (counts as dc), sk next 2 sc, (2 dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in next sc, sk next 2 sc, *dc in next sc, sk next 2 sc, (2dc, ch 1, 2 dc) in next sc, sk next 2 sc* repeat from * to * around sl st to 3rd ch of beg ch 3

Rnd 12-16: alternate repeating rnd 10 and rnd 11 (last repeat ends on rnd 10)

Rnd 17: sc in each sc around, sl st to join (48 sc)

Finish off and weave in ends.

To add the optional flower, sew a ½” or ¾” button at the desired location. The link to the flower pattern can be found in the Notes section of this pattern. I started with a ch 6 loop so that it fit over the larger size button.
