Garden party was calling and my little one did not have any hat for this festive occasion.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
With a very limited time I had to make “something” to meet my expectation: sun protection and breathable. So I made this simple baby hat suitable for any beginners. The original piece is made of a Czech Yarn VlnaHep Perla (60%bamboo\/40%cotton). This yarn is certified for kids under three years of age, very soft, has a natural look and it is nice to work with. It is sold in 50 g skeins and has 125 metres. If you pick similar yarn (50g\/125 m OR 100g\/250 m) and 4 mm hook, you should end up with the same size. Otherwise you need to alternate the pattern a little bit. Even if the video is not in English, please watch tricky parts for smooth work. So let\u00b4s start!<\/p>\n
