Crochet hats for children occur onthe principle of a napkin. The beginning is either a ring of air loops, or a self-tightening ring, if you do not want to have a hole in the top of the panama. This cunning trick is often used in knitting headgear. The tip of the thread is wound on a finger of 1.5-2 turns, then a loop is inserted into the formed loop and 6-8 sticks without a crochet are tied. After this, you need to pull the tail - and the loop will be tightened. Further knitting continues either with a sirloin grid, or according to the scheme of any napkin you like. The flat part (the bottom of the panama) should be about 15-20 centimeters in diameter. To more accurately determine this value, measure the circumference of the baby's head and divide the resulting number by 3.14.
