Baby Hat

One of the last gifts I made for my little neice before she was born was a darling little crocheted hat.  I have made many of these in adult sizes, but never for an infant before.  I had a pattern for it and was dying to try it.

I had a tadbit of yellow baby yarn left, just enough to make the hat.  It took an hour or two and I was very, very pleased with the result.


And then...my neice was born!  The hat fit her perfectly...and she makes it absolutely ADORABLE!



If you want to make this hat...here's the pattern:

Hook size: F

Chain 6, connect for ring.
Crochet 8 double crochet on ring.
Crochet 2 double crochets in each loop.
Continue until you have a 3 inch circle.
Crochet 1 double crochet in each loop until about 5-6 inches long.
Crochet a few single crochet to end.
Weave ends in.
