My cousin, Brandi, is having "A Muggle Baby Shower" this weekend so I thought something Harry Potter was certainly fitting to make for their baby.
Being a huge Harry Potter fan, this was fun to make in the House of Griffindor colors. Of course, I had to appliqué Harry's glasses and scar onto the Bib.
This was fun and fairly quick to make. I used worsted weight yarn and a 6.0mm hook. I used less than half a skein of each color.
Difficulty Level: Easy
Size: Newborn - 6 months
Materials:
--6.0mm hook for Hat and Bib
--5.0mm hook for Diaper Cover
--#4 worsted weight yarn (I used gold and cardinal; and a very small amount of black yarn for appliqué )
--1/2" button for bib
--1" button for diaper cover
--tapestry needle for weaving
U.S. Stitch Abbreviations:
Ch: chain
Sl st: slip stitch
St: stitch(es)
SC: single crochet
HDC: half double crochet

2. Attach to top center.
Bow:
1. With Gold yarn, 6 DC into MR. Sl st into MR. 6 DC into MR. Sl st into MR. Pull tail to tighten center. Wrap Yarn around the center 8-10 times. FO. Leave tail for attaching to hat.
To make the hat bigger:
Newborn - 3 months:
1. After Round 4, you will complete 1 more increase Round. 2 HDC in first st, 1 HDC in next 3 st. Sl st join and Ch1. This will make the hat 4.5" diameter which will fit 14" head circumference. Then just complete pattern same as above, alternating colors as you desire. You will work 2 extra Rounds of HDC stitches plus the final Round of SC stitches for a total of 13 Rounds.
3 months - 6 months:
1. After Round 4, you will complete 2 more increase Rounds. 2 HDC in first st, 1 HDC in next 3 st. Sl st join and Ch1. And, then 2 HDC in first st, 1 HDC in next 4 st. Sl st join and Ch1.

You will work 2 extra Rounds of HDC stitches plus the final Round of SC stitches for a total of 13 Rounds.
For the bow on the bigger hat, I completed as above, except I used TC stitches instead of D.C. Stitches.
B. Bib:
For the Bib, I used my Paisley Bib pattern. It can be found here. The only changes I made were:
1. I used a 6.0mm hook;
2. I did not include the final border of picot stitches.
For the appliqué:
Glasses:
1. Using black yarn, Ch15. Sl st to first ch. Ch4. Place stitch marker in 4th ch. Ch14. Sl st into the 4th ch that has the stitch marker. FO. Leave long enough tail for attaching.
Scar:

C. Diaper Cover:
0 - 6 months:
This Adjustable Diaper Cover is not my pattern. You can find the pattern for this simple cover here.
