The Baby Bunny Hat is perfect for a bunny-themed photoshoot featuring your favorite little one! I was asked by a dear friend if I could create such a hat for her newborn rainbow baby. Of course, I jumped at the opportunity and the Baby Bunny Hat came to be! This hat knits up so quick and is delightfully squashy in a DK yarn.

The hat comes in sizes Newborn, 0-3 Months, 6 Months, 9-12 Months, 1-3 Years, 4-6 Years, and 7-10 Years. The hat is knit first in the round, with instructions written for the Magic Loop Method. Then, each inner ear and outer ear is knit flat, seamed, and finally attached to the hat where purl stitches mark the placement.

IMPORTANT NOTE: I cannot give pattern support in relation to seaming on this pattern. This is an intermediate pattern and you should be comfortable with seaming prior to knitting it. Thank you for understanding!
