To make a crocheted handmade beanie cap, you must know the basics in crochet like making single or double loops. There are not much materials needed in making this handmade cap.
A ball of worsted-weight yarn, G-hook, tapestry needle and scissors are all you need to make your baby a handmade beanie cap. If you want the beanie cap to have two or more contrasting colors, you will need several ball of worsted-weight yarn instead of one. Since this handmade cap is designed for your baby, approximate the number of yarn balls to the size of your baby's head.
In making the handmade cap, you start by making a chain of 4 stitches. Form a ring with the stitches by making a slip stitch at the start of the chain. Make 12 stitches of double loops into the ring and close the ring by slip stitching into the first chain's top. Make another round of stitches by making 3 stitches. Do not forget to slip stitch at the end of each round and make 3 stitches at the start of each round.
For round 2 of your handmade beanie cap, follow these steps. Below the chain #3, make a double loop. Then make 2 more double loops towards the stitch. End round #2 by slip stitching then begin with round #3.
Start the 3rd round by making two double crochets next to chain #3. In the succeeding stitch, make another double crochet. Until the end of round #3, make one then two double crochet alternately.
It is now time to begin the 4th round of your handmade cap. Again, begin with making 2 double crochets next to the #3 chain. In the following 2 stitches, make double crochet on each the 2 double crochets on the next.
Alternately make double stitches in 2 stitches and on the 3rd stitch and thereafter, make 2 double crochets.
