This really sweet baby hat - worked in the round and finished with a knotted I-Cord makes a great gift for new parents. I designed this simple hat for my tie-dyed yarn, Cotton Candy, available in my Etsy Shop: ShainaBilowDesigns
It would be very adorable in any other sport weight, though I don’t know if the colors would pool the same way!
