This pattern is a baby version similar to my popular adult hats Spruce and Where the Forest Meets the sky. If you knit this version and post as a project, I’ll also send you those for free.

The hat can be made with regular stranded knitting or ladderback jackard; the latter gives great results for high contrast wool, but requires a bit more work.

I have included a plain chart and a chart detailing the ladderback jackard stitches.

If you’re unsure about Ladderback Jackard, this video is the best I’ve seen for detailing the technique:
