2. The Textured Half Double Crochet Ribbed Hat

If you want a hat that looks store-bought, try a ribbed texture. By working your stitches into the back loop only (BLO), you create a stretchy, knit-look fabric that hugs a baby’s head comfortably. This style is unisex and makes an incredible foundation for adding a top knot or faux fur pom-pom.
