The Children’s Miracle Network is a foundation that benefits all Children’s Hospitals nationwide. I am so proud and happy to partner with them today to help raise funds for children in need. The love and support from children’s hospitals can make a real difference when you are faced with a crisis.
I have designed this Crochet Reversible Miracle Hat, and am giving the pattern to the Children’s Miracle Network in hopes that we can help raise funds for this wonderful charity.
How this works is when you choose to donate to the Children’s Miracle Network, you’ll receive an email with a link to the pattern as a printable PDF with the written instructions plus a link to the full YouTube tutorial for extra help.
The pattern can be made any size with a 4-weight yarn. I used Caron Simply Soft and an H-5mm hook. A size chart with sizes newborn to large adult is included to help you make the size you need if you choose different yarn.
The stitch used is half double crochet with variations as to which loop you will be working through. This hat is made in a rectangle, folded in half, slip-stitched, and then gathered at the top. The child size includes instruction for the fun fringe, the adult size needs a pom pom with a snap or left plain. This hat is beginner-friendly if you know how to half double crochet and slip stitch.

I can’t believe it is already twelve years to the day that my youngest daughter Annie received life-changing surgery at Phoenix Children’s Hospital. Annie suffered from uncontrollable seizures starting at age 9. She was subsequently diagnosed with epilepsy.
She and I spent an incredible amount of time at Phoenix Children’s Hospital for doctor and therapy appointments. This would be the time in my life when I brought my crochet along with me to pass the time and the beginnings of this website.
Annie’s brain surgery to remove a lesion in her left temporal lobe, hippocampus, and amygdala, saved her from having severe seizures. Still, it did require many more years of cognitive therapy to help her heal. We are so grateful for the entire team of professionals at PCH helping her to recover fully. She is now a PGA Golf Associate, teaching pro and training to hopefully play on the LPGA one day.
During this time, I also spent time at PCH with my daughter Haley who needed foot surgery. I was there so much and the staff and child life services were so helpful. I made so many hats sitting in waiting rooms and recovery rooms. I just can’t believe I now have the ability to give back.
I can’t thank you all enough for being my crochet friends and creating this opportunity for me to be able to have the platform large enough to share about charitable causes. Crocheters are the most generous people on the planet and I’m grateful to be associated with good people like you.
Please reach out to me in an email (tiffany@daisyfarmcrafts.com) if you have any trouble downloading the pattern, or any questions at all. I will be here to help!
Of course I made these hats for my grandbabies! Jack and Kate were so good to let me take pictures of them. I also had Annie and Elizabeth helping out as well. I really hope you’ll enjoy the pattern. They really turn out so well!
The two different textures are really subtle, but if you look closely at the purple hat, you can see a line of braids, where in the cream hat they don’t show. Those are the two options. I explain it and you can see it more clearly in the video tutorial that comes with the donation of the hat pattern.
Thank you again for your donation if you choose to get the hat pattern. It really means a lot and I hope we can meet the goal of 30k that The Children’s Miracle Network has set for us. (I bet we can!)
All my love to you, Tiffany
