Lily Garden Crochet Hat Pattern Topped With A Flower

" The Lily Garden hat is a sweet crochet beanie pattern for babies and toddlers to welcome in the spring, and is quick and easy to make for your fresh-faced little one. I recommend using Red Heart With Love, or Red Heart Super Saver because it is durable and holds up well, making it popular for baby hats. What I like best about this hat is how versatile and customizable it is--it looks absolutely stunning with or without leaves."

Notes–**Beads pose a choking hazard** This hat should NOT be used as a toy. The baby should not be left unattended while wearing it.
