A little beanie hat for that sweet baby sprout in your life. The Little Bean Hat is a beginner pattern that’s knit
with mini skeins of fingering weight yarn. A single mini skein makes one newborn hat, but you can choose to
pair multiple minis for striped or contrasting brim versions. With a 2x2 ribbed brim and stockinette stitch, the
Little Bean Hat works up quickly, so you can make plenty for your little newborn.
Welcome to the world, little bean!
