UmmTwins2:
eeerm I really need to go understand this crochet /knitting language n stop doing shortcut I appreciate ur help, ma'am. I didn't mean how to do d top edge design o, I can make that....i meant d band, how/where does the band close up to size d head? Dnt even know if i'm making sense
I can make d top edge design. Made this baby shawl 2yrs ago when I was pregnant with my son

Measure around the head you are making the crown for then.......


make a chain that is that length or maybe sightly shorter - no more than 1/2" shorter to cater for stretch ( this is quite key if your hand is
"loose" , if your hand is a bit tight the you may want to stick to the actual measurement, , then join with a slip stitch and work in the rounds from there to form your base ring

OR

Make a chain to the required length and then work like a rectangle when you finish you join the short ends to make a ring.

Beautiful people, very homely thread.
I wish you all well....

Thanks

@ ummtwins I think u should measure the circumference of the babys head then work with that.crochet up to the length and close/finish up
I would even crochet more than the usual length and use a smock thread to finish the base of the crown.the part that looks like headband. Thread a needle with a smock thread and pass it vertically/straight up through the stitches of the headband part all the way around.that way it can stretch and fit perfectly

@ madam ynnk here is my version of the peter pan collar
Lol I call it my version cos I made lots of mistakes but u know in fashion most mistakes turn out to be styles

Vertically or horizontally

@Tatacherie, wow! It looks great! I can't see the mistakes though.

@UmmTwins2, Tochex101, welcome on board. Many thanks for the compliment.

@UmmTwins2, join your foundation chain with slip st to form a ring that is exactly the circumference of the child's head. Then work the rest of the crown in the round.

UmmTwins2 weldone mah cos for a self taught, u have gone far oh. learning basic stitches in crochet helped me catch up fast but I have a cheat sheet *** covers face** wetin we go do now, we must crochet noni. LOL
