Newborn Girl Sweet Alabama Fan hat

This is a hat I made for some friends who are Alabama fans and having a baby girl.  The hardest thing to find is the houndstooth ribbon made popular by coach Bear Bryant.  We finally found some at Hobby Lobby.  This is a simple pattern and could be adapted for a narrower ribbon by changing the 11th row to DC.  For all you Alabama fans out there, Roll Tide!!

For this hat I used a size I/5.5mm hook
Bernat Satin yarn in Flamingo
and 5/8 inch houndstooth ribbon from Hobby Lobby

Round 1:  10 DC in the loop, join together at the top of the first DC and ch 2.
Round 2:  2 DC in each st around (20 DC), join together at the top of the first DC, ch 2.
Round 3:  2 DC in the first st 1 DC in the next, repeat around (30 DC), join together at the top of the first DC, ch 2.
Round 4:  2 DC in the first st 1 DC in the next 4 sts, repeat around (36 DC), join together at the top of the first DC, ch 2.
Round 5:  2 DC in the first st 1 DC in the next 5 sts, repeat around (42 DC), join together at the top of the first DC, ch 2.
Rounds 6-10: 1 DC in each st around (42 DC), join together at the top of the first DC, ch 2.
At the end of round 10 ch 3.
Round 11:  1 TC in each st around (42 TC), join together at the top of the first TC, ch 1.
Round 12: is done in a shell stitch, to start SC in the same st as the ch 1 then sk the next two sts and make 5 DC in the next st, sk the next two sts and SC in the next st.  Repeat the shell (sk the next two sts, 5 DC in the next st, sk the next two sts and SC in the next st) around the base of the hat making 7 shells total, tie off and weave in end.  

Weave the ribbon in the TC row and tie a bow on the side of the hat.  I pulled up two stitches and left 4 behind the ribbon for a pattern.
