Have fun knitting these quick little triangles with no seaming! Triangular earflaps will keep little ears warm, and stretchy garter stitch construction will let baby wear your handiwork as she continues to grow. A winning baby gift!

This pattern consists of 4 pages and is appropriate for an intermediate knitter. As always, the pattern has been professionally tech edited, and also test knit, to be clear and free of errors.
