both stitches on the top and bottom and in holes on the sides of the rows. Tie off. Sew in ends.
Center: Take end of yarn from skein and wrap around
the center of the bow, adjusting the shape of the bow as you go. After about 20
wraps (or desired amount), cut the yarn and tie a couple knots between the two
yarn ends in the back of the bow (make sure the ends are long because you will
use them to attach the bow).
Attaching the Bow: Send the two ends from tying off
the center of the bow through the white row on the hat, in your desired spot
(mine is off centered on the right side). Tie a few knots on the inside of the
hat to attach it. With the long ends, sew one end up and back down the right
side of the bow to stabilize the bow. Repeat this on the left side with the
other long end. Tie off. Sew in ends.
Ta-Da! You're done! Below are the hat patterns for 6 and 12 month hats. You can use the same bow size for these hats or make a little larger of a bow by increasing the chains at the beginning and crocheting more rows.
