Ribbed Baby Turban (Free Crochet Pattern)


Dear fellow crocheters,

I'm excited to share with you this adorable Ribbed Baby Turban hat pattern!

This sweet newborn beanie comes with a cute bow, which I added after being inspired by top knot headwraps that are totally trending right now.  I think it's a true fashion statement but at the same time, super practical, comfortable, and keeps your baby girl's head warm!  It's easy to put on and wear, and it's the perfect accessory for the stylish, little diva in your life.  

It's also soooo simple and quick to crochet, and you can easily finish this project in one sitting!  With a 5.00mm crochet hook and medium weight yarn, you'll whip it up in no time.  Which also leads me to add -- using acrylic yarn allows some nice stitch definition and really shows off the pleats and ribbing in the body of the hat well!


This turban looks adorable without a bow, too!

My pattern comes in the newborn 0-3 month size and makes a perfect handmade gift for baby showers, craft fairs, and the like!  You can also easily adjust this pattern to fit larger heads by adding additional increase rows to the crown.  I'll be adding a toddler, child, and possibly adult size in the future!

I even have a video tutorial available for the Baby Turban too~

If you're looking to use some velvet yarn, I highly recommend checking out the Velvet Baby Turban pattern!  It is nearly identical to this hat.  The crown of both hats are entirely the same, and the body of the hats are different: the Velvet Baby Turban is worked in BLO, whereas the Ribbed Baby Turban is worked in alternating BLO and FLO.


Want to make this in ALL SIZES?

Since I've gotten a lot of inquiry about this pattern in other sizes, I've decided to add on all sizes for this pattern!  This includes: newborn (0-3 months), baby (6-12 months), toddler, child, teen, and adult.  Click HERE or the image below to get to the pattern page, where you can find the download links.

~ FINISHING INSTRUCTIONS~

  1. Pick up the bow portion that you have crocheted.  Pinch the center o the rectangle to form a crease, and wrap the long yarn tail tightly around the middle.  Wrap many times before securing it in the back.
  2. Sew the bow onto the pinched fold of the turban, and you are done!
