We offered the Ripple Hat for baby, but some are asking for the little mittens pattern. Will you point us to the link for the pattern. Thank you for the hat pattern. Lyn is a very good friend of mine and is a moderator in our Angels4Preemies group. Today is January 4, 2010.

The mittens were just made up as I went…it should be easy enough to reconstruct the pattern, though. I’ll work on it!

I’d love to know the brand of yarn and colorway to make this hat. It’s adorable.

Can I use this pattern to sell make hats to sell…I don’t see anything and while I could do it and not ask I prefer to ask it’s only right

I put the labels somewhere where I wouldn’t lose them, which of course guarantees that now I can’t find them. They’ll turn up sooner or later, though, and I’ll post the yarns that I used when they do.

Of course, Tonya. I don’t feel any need to control the use of the pattern. I hope it’s profitable for you! (Thanks for asking!)

I have been looking for a ripple hat pattern for a long time. I love it! I’m probably going to sell a couple of these in my Etsy shop. I will gladly give you credit for the beautiful pattern! Thanks so much for doing this!!!!!

They are adorable. I make baby hats for a hospital near me and I’m going to use your pattern for the next couple I make. Thank you for sharing your pattern. I like them.

Could you give me a gauge on this or a finished size? I made one and its adorable but it looks big. Maybe i need to use a different size needle. Thank You.

Thank you for this pattern. I would like to make these for gifts. I have 6 grandchildren, but they are too big for these now, but it would be nice for charity gifts also. Thanks again.

Hi I am also a s RN that works in a Academy/Residential that exists to help troubled girls. I have instructed and mentored many of them to crochet. One of the therapists claims that crochet and other types of repetitive hand movement type crafts helps as a coping skill and helps reprogram the brain. I have done many types of things to help the girls. I have done massage therapy with deep tendon release of the arms, shoulders and such. We had management changes and now I am highly limited and /or forebiden to do massages at this time. I am always looking for cheep yarn and supplies to give the girls and have bought a lot out of my own money. I am always looking for creative things to do with the girls. I do weekly nurse led topics for health and include many things in my teaching 1 of which has been crochet, spa, relaxation, infection control, car safety, med safety and on and on. If anyone has ideas or yarn or hooks they want to give pls contact me. I have had guest speakers come and share parts of their stories of survival and career posibilities also. I currently live in noth IL

Thank you for this pattern, it is so cute. I made it a little smaller because I was using Simply soft yarn. (don’t have any baby weight at the moment) I am going to get some baby weight yarn because I want to get the size of it with that weight. I work for a hospital(several actually) and I would like to make some of these for our baby units.

Just love the pattern and have made several for charity! While making these adorable little hats, I revised the directions for the beginning of rounds 4-16. I would like to recommend this pattern on Ravelry with the revised changes. I will be happy to email you the revisions with pics so that other interested crocheters can refer to your site for this adorable pattern.

Round 2: Ch 3, DC in starting st, Ch 2, 2 DC in next st, *2 DC in next st, Ch2, 2 DC in nxt st* (V-stitch), 5 more times. Join at 3rd ch of starting Ch3. (7 V-stitches)

Round 3: Sl St in nxt st and in first V-stitch space, Ch 3, DC-Ch2-2DC in same space. *2DC-Ch2-2DC in next V-stitch space* six times; join at 3rd ch of starting Ch3.

Round 4: Sl St to st before V-stitch, Ch 3, 2DC-Ch2-2DC in V-space, DC in next st, *skip 2 st, DC in next st, 2DC-Ch2-2DC in V-space, DC in next st* six times; join at 3rd ch of starting Ch 3.

Round 5: Sl St in first st, Ch 3, DC in next st, 2DC-Ch2-2DC in V-space, DC in next 2 st, *skip 2 st, DC in next 2 st, 2DC-Ch2-2DC in V-space, DC in next 2 st* six times; join at 3rd ch of starting Ch3.
