“I have to buy a hat with a teddy bear ears” I remember myself when I was shopping for my little one. Who knows why? Simply because the babies look so cute in this type of hats and beanies.
I made this hat up just yesterday. Honestly. I had something different on my mind. Something more like a beret. But I frogged and changed the idea so many times that I ended up with this hat. And now I am happy to share this pattern with you.
