Bee Stitch Hat
This sweet little hat is a fantastic addition to any baby’s wardrobe! Knit in the round, with a very easy stitch pattern, this hat is a fun, quick project to make! There is only one end to weave in, and a jumbo pom-pom gives it that “awwwww!!!” factor. This hat was designed with no ease. To have a snug hat, go down a size. For slouchier, go up one size. Remember to knit to your original lengths, though!
