Crochet Baby Hats are on my hook. The weather is warming up and it’s time to get ready. I am preparing by crocheting these cute little baby hats. This hat fits babies up to 1 year (depending on baby of course). Crocheting baby hats is fast and fun. These baby hats are easy to make and use simple single crochet stitches. The smaller brim is ideal for baby boys. Embellish with flowers, birdies, etc., or leave plain. Using cotton yarn makes this hat cooler to wear in hot days as the fabric can breathe. Using a sc stitch ensures better protection from sun for baby. If you are making for a baby girl you can always add a scalloped edge.
