Summary

Knit 20 sweet and quirky baby hats!

Hats are a timeless must-have baby item – so what could be better than making one yourself? The book features a range of hats, with design styles that will appeal to every knitter. The proposed designs fall into four categories: basic simple beanies (with a pompom, a rainbow stripe, a top knot, a fair isle pattern and a bow); animal hats (fox, panda, bear); food hats (apple, watermelon, pumpkin) and quirky hats (elf-style, square with tassels, bonnet, cat ears and a pixie bonnet).  

As babies vary so much in size, the book will give the patterns in three different sizes, which would fit (approximately) newborn to 6 months, 6-12 months and then 12-24 months, offering a great range of sizes, and good value for money. 

The yarns used are all hypo-allergenic, washable and with some elasticity, to help the hats keep their shape. The hats use relatively small amounts of yarn so are ideal for quick, portable projects.
