Classic French Baby Cap
This beautiful little baby cap is knit in a thick garter stitch to keep tiny ears toasty. Knit with two needles and thick yarn, the cap is finished in no time at all. The special reduction steps creates a beautiful spiral pinwheel pattern on the crown of baby’s head. Based on a classic French baby cap, the pattern was created by a knitwear designer in Lyon, France.
Caps can be knit in sizes 0-3 months, 3-6 months, or 6-12 months. You will need to know how to cast on stitches, knit stitches, knit two stitches together, cast off, seam the finished work and knit in ends of the finished work – skill level beginner. A hat, for an average skilled knitter, should take approximately three hours to complete.
