Sweet Baby Cap

I’ve been asked to translate the pattern for the baby cap. Here it is. English understanding people – I hope you will enjoy it and I hope to see a lot of nice caps around! Thanks to Theresa. She made the traslation. 

Gauge: 28 stitches = 10 cm

Yarn: 50 grams of light and dark pink yarn, baby weight.

Sizes:  6 mo (1) 2 yr

CO 121 (125) 131 stitches with 2.5 mm circular needle, join then knit 7 rounds in garter stitch (purl one round, then knit one round) then change to 3 mm needles and knit in stockinette stitch, changing colors every 2 rows. 
 
On the next round, increase and decrease as follows:
k1, M1, k18 (18) 19, slip 1 – knit 2 tog tbl – ­ psso, k 18 (19) 20, M1, k1, M1
k 18 (19) 20, slip 1 – knit 2 tog tbl – psso, k 18 (19) 20, M1, k1, M1, k 18
(19) 20, slip 1 – knit 2 tog tbl – psso, k 18 (18) 19, M1, k1
 
Repeat these increases and decreases every other round for 8 (9) 10 more rounds. Then do only the decreases every other round until there are 7 (11) 11 stitches left. Then k2tog until only one stitch is left, break yarn and thread through remaining stitches.

Steam block the cap from the inside with a damp cloth over. Attach crocheted or I-cord ribbon in each side.

The pattern is available in norwegian too
