Fair Isle Baby Hat
"This crochet baby hat is created using the waistcoat stitch and fair isle and is a fun and easy hat to make for a little one. If you haven’t tried the Waistcoat stitch before, I hope you will give it a try. It looks a lot like a knit stitch – but it is crochet! It works well for things in the round. This little hat works up quickly and will fit a baby from about 6-18 months, depending on how big the baby is.
