This sweet little baby hat features charming kitten ears on top, making it an irresistible accessory for tiny heads. The ears are decorated with optional sequins, which are sewn on at the end for a playful sparkle.
The brim is worked in a textured stitch similar to twisted rib, giving the hat a snug yet decorative finish. This quick and easy project is perfect for knitting a cozy beanie for babies aged 0–3 months.
The hat is worked bottom-up and knit in the round using double-pointed needles (DPNs). Alternatively, it can also be worked on long circular needles using the magic loop method.
