Candy Corn Hat Pattern for Toddlers/Children

Since my Candy Corn Hat design was such a hit.  I decided to release my children's size pattern on here to share.  So here it is!!

Candy Corn Hat Pattern 

(Toddler/ Child size)

Shown above is the toddler size, which you can get by using a hook smaller than the ones used in the pattern below.

Materials:

Hooks I & H (or for the toddler hat use hooks H & G)
Yarn: white, orange, yellow (I used Red Heart)

Note:  The chain 2's at the beginnings of the rows DO NOT count as 1 dc.  instead you will dc 1 or 2 times in the same st to start each row.

With I hook (or H hook for toddler size) and white yarn, Ch 4 (or magic circle) join with 1st ch to form a loop.  Ch 2.

Rnd 1: work 12 dc into loop.  (remember not counting as a dc) join. (12 dc)

Rnd 2: ch 2, dc in each st. join. (12)

Rnd 3: ch 2, 2 dc in each st. join (24)

Rnd 4-5: ch 2, dc in each st, join (24)

Rnd 6: ch 2, *2 dc in next st, dc in st, rep from *. join (36)

Change to orange.

Rnd 7: ch 2, 2 dc in next st, dc in next 2 st, rep from *, join (48)

Rnd 8: ch 2, *2 dc in next st, dc in next 3 st, rep from *, join (60)

Rnd 9-13: ch 2, dc in each st around. join. (60)

Change to yellow yarn and H hook (or G hook for Toddler size)

Rnd 14: ch 1, sc in each dc space around. join. (60)

Rnd 15-18: ch 1, sc in each st around. (60)

Fasten off.

Ear Flaps

Right Flap

Holding hat like this:

Count 8 stitches left from where you tied it off.  In the 9th st, join yellow yarn (H hook for Kids, G hook for toddlers) with a ss.

Row 1: in same st as ss, sc 1. sc 11 more across. (12 sc total) Ch 1 turn.

Row 2-4: sc across (12 sc) ch 1, turn.

Row 5: sc 2 tog, sc in next 8 st, sc 2 tog (10) ch 1, turn.

Row 6: sc 2 tog, sc in next 6 st, sc 2 tog (8) ch 1, turn.

Row 7:  sc 2 tog, sc in next 4 st, sc 2 tog (6) ch 1, turn.

Row 8:  sc 2 tog, sc in next 2 st, sc 2 tog (4) ch 1, turn.

Row 9: sc 2 tog, sc 2 tog (2) ch 1, turn.

Row 10: sc 2 tog (1) tie off.

Left Ear Flap

Holding hat the same way as above, count 19 stitches to the right from the tie off of the hat. In 20th st, join yarn with a ss.

Follow same ear flap directions as above, but DO NOT TIE OFF!!!

To finish of the hat, sc down the ear flap and around the hat, doing 3 sc in the tips of the ear flaps.  Fasten off.

Add tassel ties and braid.

And there you go!!  My fun little Candy Corn Hat for Fall fun!

Candy Corn Hat Giveaway!

Last Halloween, this was my best selling item.  There wasn't a lot of choices on Etsy, then, this year the Candy Corn Hat has exploded and there are many more options for people to buy.  I am okay with it, mainly because my shop has been closed the last few weeks due to having my tonsils out and I was in recovery mode... not exactly in the mood to be taking hat orders.

My original plan was to give away one of these cuties that I already had made up, but then as I thought about it today, I realized I didn't want to limit my readers that way.  So whoever wins this hat, you will get to choose between the sizes newborn through child (That includes all baby and toddler sizes as well).  This is NOT an adult hat.  But I will customize it to the size you need for your little one.

PS -- the great thing about the Candy Corn Hat, is that isn't just a Halloween thing... it's a FALL thing too :)
