Since we noticed there are not too many hats for newborn babies, this is a good one to start with! What a cutie the baby will be with the little perky “ears” at top of hat! Uses baby yarn, US # 4 needles. Work back and forth, no double pointeds needed. Ears are sized just right to add “ cuteness” without being in the way! Make these to donate to the local hospital too. Fits up to 3 months, and some preemie babies.
