The pattern is perfect for anyone knitting their first baby hat and felting (fulling) for the first time as instructions are given to help control the process.

These beanies were knitted in Noro Kureyon in an adult size and then hand fulled (the correct term for felted knit fabrics) in controlled conditions to a 0-6mths size. It was my very first attempt at felting to a specific dimension and it worked perfectly. All that is needed is a free day in which to fiddle and felt in stages. Rushing the job might ruin your work so relax and have fun with it.
