It seems like every day a customer comes into the store looking for a quick baby knit. We usually recommend a sweater, but why not a hat? They’re great for protecting little heads from the sun and for keeping warm in the air conditioning.
Kathy came up with three adorable hat patterns using a wonderful baby yarn, Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino. Each hat has a different brim and crown–you could make just one, or present the new parents with a set. Click here to download the pattern.
These hats are a great addition to your baby pattern repertoire, especially if you’re looking for a last-minute gift!

Where can I buy some of these? I am looking to get some for some studio portrait sessions I have coming up!
They are adorable!
I started on my first hat last night and it’s already looking cute! Thanks for the pattern, Kathy!
i would like to make this hat in a bigger baby size than newborn? can you tell me how to change the pattern to size it up?
thanks!
The hats are adorable. My daughter has been asking for a striped hat and I wanted to use the baby cashmerino I had on hand.
I also would like to know how to size up this hat (see Judi’s comment). I would be interested in a size for 5 yr old. Many thanks.
LOVE these hats! One question. Are they knit on circular or dpns? I’m more comfortable with circ. needles. Thanks!
We started with a circular and switched to double points. If you don’t like dpn’s, you could use 2 circ’s or the magic loop technique.
