Today is the second day of our 31 Days of Knitted Gifts! To see our previous project, go here. This little apple hat is adorable for newborn photos or family fall pictures!
I love to see babies in hats! Well, babies are always adorable but when you put one in a hat they are overwhelmingly cute. So cute that women will have to make some sound when they see them. Either “awww”, or “oh my!” or the ever popular high pitch squeal. I hope this apple hat will bring your babies lots of compliments. Be sure to bookmark this tutorial to share with them when they ask where you got it…because trust me, your little one will be so cute, they’ll have to ask!
Pattern: Both patterns used in this project are from Ravelry.com and were free! The apple hat pattern can be found here and the leaf pattern here.
Notes:
I only own two 12” circular needles: size 4 and 8. I prefer these over DPN so I used the 4’s for the ribbing and 8’s for the rest. Switched to DPNs when I had to. Used a little scrap of cascade 220 for the stem and scrap of lettuce malabrigo for the leaf. This hat took less than 3 hours total to make. Even on size 8’s it seems tiny. I hope it fits her!
If you like this hat, please pin it so others can find it.
