The “ABIGAIL” hat - a great first hat for the Spring newborn.

Knit in the round in simple stockinette, the white petals are knit separately and sewn on later to form the flower on top. A length of knitted i-cord is threaded through holes created in the brim and tied to help keep it on tiny heads. A fun pom pom tops it off.
