This preemie pattern is designed with some special touches just for the boys! A modified grit stitch section gives the hat some much needed texture, while a reverse single crochet edging gives a little rope like detailing to the bottom.

I have named this hat for my nephew Colin, who along with his twin sister, Shelby, was born quite premature. He is now an almost 6 year old full of life and vigor, for that my family is eternally grateful!
