Hello friends, in today’s blog, I have brought a lovely and stylish baby visor hat knitting pattern for beginners.

You can make this visor or brim hat for everyone from children to adults. This knitted visor hat looks good on people of all ages. After making this hat with a brim, it looks exactly like the hat available in the market. For boys, you can make it in this simple way and for girls, you can make it by putting flowers on the sides.

This knitted visor hat is also very easy to make and the entire hat is completed with only knit & purl stitches. I have also attached Visor Hat Knitting Video Tutorials below the post which will help you in knitting this hat, so let’s start knitting the stylist baby visor hat.

Knitting Back Side Border

First of all, we will make the border of the hat. We have started knitting this hat from the back side, so we will first make the back side border. The border is made in a 1×1 Rib stitch.

We have to fold the border, so we will make the length of the border a little more. Here I have made a border of 2.5 inches. The pattern of the border is as follows.

Row 1 ( RS ) – K1, P1, K1, P1 ……………………

Row 2 ( WS ) – Knit in knit & Purl in purl ( K1, P1, K1, P1 …………. )

Repeat rows 1 & 2 and knit a 2.5-inch border.

Knitting Body of Hat

After the border is completed, we will put the design in the hat. You can put any design of your choice in the hat. The design I have included here is an easy Knit & Purl pattern. This pattern gives a very classy look and is also very easy to knit.

This pattern is of 8 rows & we have to complete the length of the hat by repeating these 8 rows. Keep in mind that the hat is being made from back to front and will be stitched by pulling it from both sides, so we have to keep its length a little more.

The pattern of the baby visor hat is given below.

Row 1 ( RS ) – Purl all sts

Row 2 ( WS ) – Knit all sts

Row 3 ( RS ) – Purl all sts

Row 4 ( WS ) – Knit all sts ……………. last sts P1

Row 5 ( RS ) – Knit all sts

Row 6 ( WS ) – Purl all sts

Row 7 ( RS ) – Knit all sts

Row 8 ( WS ) – Purl all sts ……………….. last sts K1

Now repeat rows 1 to 8 and make 20 purl stripes from the right side.

Knitting Front Side Border

After completing the length of the cap, we will knit the border of the front side.

We have to knit the border in a 1×1 rib stitch, but the length of the front border will be half of the back side border because we have to fold the back border. The pattern of the front border is given below

Row 1 ( RS ) – K1, P1, K1, P1 ……………..        

Row 2 ( WS ) – Knit in knit & Purl in purl ( K1, P1, K1, P1 …………… )

Continue knitting & knit 1 inch border.

Knitting Brim for Hat

Lastly, we will knit the brim of the hat, this will make our hat look stylish. The pattern for knitting Brim is given below.

Row 1 ( RS ) – Purl all sts

Row 2 ( WS ) – Knit all sts

Row 3 ( RS ) – Knit all sts …………… last 2 sts slip then turn the work

Row 4 ( WS ) – Purl all sts ………….. last 2 sts slip then turn the work

Row 5 ( RS ) – Knit all sts ………….. last 4 sts slip then turn the work

Row 6 ( WS ) – Purl all sts …………. last 4 sts slip then turn the work

Continue knitting until we have the middle 28 stitches left.

Row 1 ( RS ) – K28, K2 then turn the work

Row 2 ( WS ) – P30, P2 then turn the work

Row 3 ( RS ) – K32, K2 then turn the work

Row 4 ( WS ) – P34, P2 then turn the work

Continue knitting until we knit all stitches from both sides.

Now that the brim of the hat is completed, we will proceed to bind off the stitches.

Right Side – Knit wise bind off all sts

Sew the Hat

Finally, we have to sew the cap. To sew, first of all, we will sew the open part of the brim with the border.

After this, we will fold the back side border and sew it. Then we will attach the front and back borders from both sides.

Then, turn the cap right side up, leaving a half-inch gap from the side edge, and pick up every purl stitch from the side edge.

Secure it tightly by pulling. In the same way, we need to sew the other side as well.

Now baby visor hat is ready to be worn.
