For the Tiniest

This is a hat pattern sized for all the tiniest babies, including 4 different preemie sizes (2-3 pounds, 3-4 pounds, 4-5 pounds, 5-6 pounds) and a newborn size. Recipients of these hats have often told me how grateful they are to have hats that fit their babies so well. The hat is knit in the round from the bottom up. Fingering weight yarn is used to make a perfect fabric for tiny babies. Two finish options are provided: either a knot or a loop at the top of the hat. Skills needed: • Knitting in the round, using either double-pointed needles or the magic loop method • I-cord, used at the top of the hat to make either a loop or a knot The pattern includes a helpful chart with head circumference and other measurements for each size.
