Crochet Pattern Baby Chin Strap Hat

I suppose it's time to start thinking about fall, and cooler weather.  I thought I would post my pattern for this adorable little strap hat.  Use your imagination and mix up the colors.  I think this would be really cute done in gray and maroon...or even oranges and pinks for a little girl.  Enjoy and let me know how it turns out!   If your not into crochet or strapped for time, feel free to purchase completed hat in my Etsy Shop:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/70599576/crochet-strap-hat-for-baby-boys-or-girls

  1. I'm REALLY wanting to make this but wondering what size hook you used! Please, could you add that? It's SUCH a cute lil' hat & I have TWO new great grandbabies on the way so I intend to make each of them one of these hats! THANK YOU!!!
