Your choice of yarn. For my crochet baby beanie I chose soft acrylic yarn blend. How much yardage, or how many grams, of yarn you use is going to vary. Preemie Beanie: 30 to 50 yards Newborn Beanie: 50 to 70 yards Baby Beanie: 60 to 80 yards Crochet Hook: This crochet baby hat beanie is a “no gauge” project. Choose a crochet hook that works well with your yarn. If you’re not sure, check the yarn label. Large manufacturers will print the recommended hook size near the care instructions on every yarn wrapper. For the crochet sample beanie I used a size 4,5mm crochet hook paired with my bulky weight yarn. Before you go on, make sure you are familiar with the following stitches: chain stitch, double crochet and slip stitch.

A square is worked in rounds. Working in rounds is a little bit different from working in rows, though you use the same basic stitches for both. When I say "working in rounds" I am talking about where you start in the middle and your piece grows outward, getting larger, until it is the size you need.
This is a very good method to use if you need a crochet square to be a particular size or if you plan to use different colors
