Little girls love love-hearts!
This pretty little heart beanie with its pixie top could be her absolute favourite hat.

These picture knits are worked flat and seamed for easy intarsia knitting. If you are a new knitter and not quite ready to work in intarsia this time, you can turn this pattern into a simple project by Swiss darning (duplicate stitching) the little hearts onto your beanie after knitting.

This knitting pattern has instructions for the following sizes:
6-8lbs (0-3m, 3-6m, 6-12m, 1-2 yrs, 3-5 years)

Choose any 4 Ply yarn / or sport yarn that knits on 3.25mm (US3) needles to the tension listed below. The little beanie shown here was knitted in Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino

If you are printing this pattern, just print out the size you are knitting along with the ‘All Sizes’ pages to save on ink.

All pages are clearly numbered and indexed.

I do recommend knitting this beanie flat and seamed with intarsia pictures, but if you only work in the round you could convert this pattern for DPNs and duplicate stitch (swiss darn) the hearts once you have completed the beanie. Each size would need to be 2 stitches less, (you would need to omit the first and last stitch of each row).
