Hallo, yes this is fine if you have added your variations to your blog in Dutch. Your little hats look lovely: On the 23rd, 24th, 25th May we are hosting "Beanie Affair" in Castlemaine. Would you allow me to make some of these cuties to sell. Maybe you'd like to enter some of your sensational beanies Hello Nat, I'm glad you like the pattern: Thank you for sharing such a terrific pattern! I love finding patterns that are well written and work up just the way they are suppose to I have found many that don't! I also really appreciate you taking the time to include the US terms inside the pattern, it makes it so much easier to keep track while working I tend to get "in the zone" and just do what's written, and forget the change in terms.

I was wondering if you would allow me to post photos and potentially sell my finished product on my online store with credit given of course. Thank you so much for your consideration!

Shara Lambeth Designs: Pixie Bonnet Pattern

I'm happy for you to post photos or your finished hats and for you to sell the hats you make in your online shop: I've been looking for an easy bonnet pattern for a while now and this one was super easy and it's just adorable. I have an etsy shop that I recently opened up and would love to be able to sell the finished bonnet there and have a link to your blog or ravelry page at the bottom to give credit.

Also wondering if it would be okay to send a few to a photographer to use as her props when she shoots newborns. If not, I completely understand. Still a beautiful hat! Thanks so much Jess CrochetForMaddie. And congratulations on opening up your Etsy store, it's a wonderful adventure!! Hi I came across your pixie bonnet pattern and wanted to make some for my shop to sell in different styles and colors I read your rules and was wondering if you would give me permission. Thank you Jessi maxwell Ps I will be sending some overseas as well to a orphanage for the babies there.

The bit about creating the hdc is confusing me a bit.

I would love to have the opportunity to sell these adorable hats and will gladly spread ur name to others if u will allow it! Hello Misty, Thank you for your message: All I ask is that if you are selling them online Etsy, Ebay, Facebook, etc that you add a quick note to the item description letting people know where the pattern is from: Thank you for creating this beautiful pattern!! I was wondering if you'd give me permission to sell the hats giving you full credit for the pattern.

To help off set the cost of the yarn I use to make these blankets. If not, that's ok too. Please continue to create these fabulous patterns!! All I ask is that if you sell them via any online venue Etsy, eBay, Craftsy, Facebook, etc that you add a quick note to the item description saying where the pattern is from.

I realise it's a little difficult to label items as such when you're selling at a market or fair, so there's no need to do it in these circumstances: Hi, I love your pattern! I was wondering if you would mind if I sell a couple hats I've made with this pattern at a local craft fair. I fully intend to give you full credit for the pattern design. Thanks again for sharing such a fun, easy pattern!

All I ask is that if you decide to sell them via an online venue that you add a quick note in the item description letting people know where the pattern is from. I realise it's a bit difficult to label items as such when selling at a craft fair, so it's not necessary I'm these circumstances: Hi Shara, I really love this bonnet, it's so sweet.

I would like to make one in a size mths,do you have a pattern for this size? Thanks so much for sharing this pattern, I love it! I've been making it using chunky yarn and a larger hook for my 10 month old daughter and a couple of her baby friends! I'm new to your blog and am really enjoying it, I'm planning to try a couple of your other patterns too!

Love the pattern, just made the first one fory daughter. Would you mind if I sold a couple I'm my shop? I'll be sure to include where the pattern came from. Hello Terri, that sounds like a very sweet set for Christmas: Thank you for such a lovely pattern! Could I sell the finished bonnets on etsy please? Hi, first off, I love your pattern I made one for a friend, who also loved it!! It would only be through my Facebook page!! Would that be okay?

Hello Fluff Girl, thank you for your lovely message: I do it with all the patterns I make, credit where it's due! I plan on making a bigger one for my own daughter, would have to be in pink for her as apparently no other colour exists! I've just started it up over the weekend, so is still a work in progress! I was wonderin if you could help me figure out how to make this bigger for a 1 year old? One is to use a thicker yarn and larger hook. And the other way is to add a few extra stitches in the beginning chain and do several more rows. This might take a little bit of experimentation.

What a lovely bonnet!! Also you are very generous letting people to sell them. I may be mistaken, as your pattern seems very popular and nobody has commented anything about it, but I think there is a mistake in row 7. Shouldn't it be 1tr in each of next 22 sts instead of 21? Thank you for taking the time to write and leave feedback: When you do the 2ch at the beginning if the row this counts at your first hdc, so the final stitch count includes this as a stitch: Sorry for the delayed reply, I'm not sure how I missed your comment!

I have been asked to make some hats as props for a photographer, this pattern is perfect, i usually design my own crochet patterns but I'm a bit all hatted out at the moment and no matter what I do I just can't get mine to go right. May i have permission to sell the finished hat. I probably won't make anymore than 6 and I would love to sing your praises as the designer. Thanks Shara, when i get my finger out i'll get my facebook and etsy shop up and running.

At present its just private sales. I'm more than happy to promote your patterns. Hey Shara, Thank you so much for this incredibly easy and fun pattern! Would it be okay if I sell a few of these on my little etsy shop? I will add a link to your blog on it. My son loves this hat. He is actually sitting next to me right now chewing on the strands! I will get a cute pic and post the link to it a little later on! Awwwwww, Jessica that picture is SO sweet!!!

Thank you so much for sharing it: Hey I was wondering if you could help me figure out how to make it big enough to fit my 2 yr old I haven't tried to make it yet: Your starting chain needs to be an even number. When adding extra rows to add depth to the hat add them on the plain rows that don't have shaping at the beginning and end of the row, and you will need to add these extra rows before you start the pixie peak shaping in the centre of the rows to make the point on top of the hat otherwise you will end up with a VERY big "point" on the top of the hat and it might look a bit odd instead of cute: Ahh I'll try again lol may I sell any hats I make?

And do you think it may be too big the measurements I got were 17cm for the point, 15cm for the front and 14cm deep across? If you are selling them via an online venue Etsy, Ebay, Facebook, etc all I ask is that you add a quick note letting people know where the pattern is from: Love how easy this pattern is! I made one with a thinner yarn so it ended up smaller then I thought it should be but I know how to fix that: Would it be OK to sell these once I get the sizing down?

Thank you for your awesome pattern! The only thing I ask is that if you're selling them online Etsy, eBay, Facebook, etc you add a quick note in the item description letting people know where the pattern is from: I was also asked by a photographer to make your pixie hat. She just loves the long point.

Would it be okay with you if I sell the finished product that I make using your pattern? I also have an Etsy shop and if I do end up selling it there, I'd be happy to post a link back to your site. Thank you so much for your kind consideration. All I ask is that if you decide to sell them in an online venue such as Etsy, eBay, Facebook, etc, that you add a note to the item description letting people know where the pattern is from: Love this pixie hat!

Pixie Bonnet

I was wondering if you would give me permission to sell completed items I have made using your pattern. All I ask is that if you're selling them online that you add a quick note to the item description letting people know where the pattern is from. Hi Shara, thanks for the pattern! Mine didnt turn out so pointy at the top for some reason, but otherwise good. Did you ever end up making patterns for bigger sizes? Or do you have any ideas of how I would go about adjusting the pattern to make for kids and adults?

Hi, what a fab pattern! I've just made it for a friend who is due next week, I think she'll love it! Would it be ok to make another one for my etsy shop? Obviously I'll credit the pattern back to yourself and thanks again for a great hat pattern. Shara I forgot to request a notification.

I love your designs.

I wrote this pattern up in a month size, but you can easily adapt it by increasing the width of your hat. Your hat will still be awesome no matter what. I think woodland elf hats should be made of earthy colors. The furry trim gives this hat the knuckle-biting cuteness factor.

    Anyway, use whatever you can find. When you reach the end of each row, ch1, turn, hdc into the same st, hdc into each st, etc. Your gauge might be different than mine and you might need more or less rows. Basically you want a rectangle that folds in half into an exact square. I test by folding in half, then folding the square s into a triangle to see if the edges line up.

    When you reach your desired length, fold the hat in half. Insert your hook into the last st on the folded side, wrap yarn over, and draw yarn through all loops sl st. Matching up remaining stitches, insert hook into front st, then back st. Wrap yarn around, and pull through all loops sl st. Repeat for remaining stitches. You might have a stitch left over at the end where the fold is — thankfully crochet is forgiving and you can just sew around it.

    Fasten off yarn and weave in ends. Turn hat right side out. When I first did it, I sc into each st and the brim of the hat flared out a little. Since I am picky, I went with a larger hook and skipped every other sc for the hat in these photos. You can do whatever you want to get the nice fluffy look of your dreams.

    To create a nice finished look, I like to sc around the bottom border of the hat. You can do a chainless foundation of dc about st long , or I liked mine a bit more tightly woven, so I just ch18, 1 hdc in each st down one side, 5 hdc into the end, hdc down the other side, 4 hdc into the end and fastened off. Leave a tail at the beginning and the end so you can sew one end to the hat, and use the other tail to sew the button onto the strap.

    Sew button to strap, sew strap to hat, weave in all ends, place on baby head and admire adorable woodland elf cuteness. Follow along with the project gallery on Ravelry! If I increase the size a bit, you say to increase the width? By this do you mean increase the number of rows before finishing it off OR increase the row length? Thanks SO much for your generous feedback and comments! If you want to increase the size, I would increase the stitch count row width , which would also increase the number of rows before finishing it off.

    If you want a specific size, look for it later this week.

    It would be more easy to adjust to my yarn if i knew the measures instead of the numbers of stiches. Thank you for your question! Good luck and let me know if you have other questions! Love the pattern so cute. I was wondering if you mind if the hat made from this pattern is sold with all pattern credit given to you with link back to your blog and pattern.

    What a cute project! I love it so much that I decided to feature it in our roundup of cozy handmade hats! Check it out here:
