Thanks for checking out my patterns!

This is my basic beanie that stays on quite well in the hospital after birth. It’s great for newborn photography, a quick new baby gift, and can easily be whipped up in an hour or two. Any worsted weight yarn will do.

I use this for charitable knitting for my local hospitals as well and I can usually get 4-5 hats out of one skein of Berroco Vintage. Any yarn can be substituted and you can size up by increasing stitches by a factor of 8.
