I love this adorable little beanie! Thankfully, the author has included instructions for various sizes of preemies right on up to newborns. I donate hats to our local mothering center, and its always nice to have a variety of sizes as well as patterns. I make other animal patterns, and those neat little ears would work perfectly with a monkey hat Ive created. Thanks for posting this!
