Oh my, I discovered this post in draft mode and realized that I never posted it last year! What a sweet little trip down memory lane. My baby is now a toddler and keeping me busy as he climbs up chairs, tables, and attempts to scale the countertops as well! Anyways, without further adieu: the 10 minute Knit Baby Hat Tutorial.

One thing that I didn't even think of until we got home from the hospital was picking up a little that for Mac. It really wasn't cold here until the week that he was born. The day I went into labor it was 75 degrees out! Then a storm came in and by the time we heard hospital it was in the high 40's. That might not seem cold to most of you, but for us in the Sacramento area, that's cold!

Pinterest to the rescue! I found a quick tutorial with printable pattern from How Does She? and whipped up two hats in a matter of minutes. I love the added detail of the knot on the top. It comes in both newborn and 0-3 month sizes.

These would be great to give as baby shower gift! Make a few in different patterns with a package of long sleeved onesies. Perfect for fall and winter babies!
