To crochet a hat, make a slip stitch and chain six stitches. Take the last stitch and attach it to the first stitch to create a circle. Chain one stitch and begin making one single crochet into each stich in the circle, attaching each round at the end as before. Continue in this manner for six inches, and bind off.

In order to learn how to crochet a hat, I would recomend a trip to a fabric store, and asking for a beginner's crochet kit, or a free beginner's class.

Start by chaining 3. Complete 12 half double crochets in third chain from hook. Work in rounds, increasing each round to keep piece smooth until it's large enough for the childs head. Continue to crochet around until the circle is long enough to fit over childs ears with a brim.
