Baby Hat Crochet Patterns



I get so excited whenever I find out someone is having a baby… especially when it means I get to be an Aunt to that new bundle of cuteness!  My sister-in-law Bethany is expecting in about a month so I knew it was time to start making homemade baby presents.  I like to do handmade gifts anyway, but since my husband just got laid off it is the ONLY option right now.  Fortunately for me I believe in not only keeping a fully stocked pantry, but a fully stocked craft room!

Anyway, I digress…. so back to my new niece.  This will be their 3rd baby so they have all of the necessities already.  (Check out this list of baby items you can’t live without)  Which means I just get to do fun stuff.  I decided to start with a baby hat and go from there, which gave me a great opportunity to redo my baby hat crochet pattern post by adding a video with step by step instructions on how to make this hat.   Since my niece hasn’t been born yet, you’ll have to settle for a picture of my baby boy wearing this hat last year, although in the video I’m using pink and brown to make the little baby girl version!
