Pink Bunny Ears Hat
This baby beanie is made in sizes 0-3 months, 3-6 months and 6-9 months.
The hat has a rolled brim that can be kept into place with a stitch or two.
The floppy ears are knit flat, then seamed and stitched into place on top of the hat.
Newborn Bunny Hat
The bunny hat was knit with soft cotton from Rico yarns, called Rico Creative Cotton Aran.
I chose the colour pink in the shade of rose (00) for the hat, but they have a good range of pinks and other colours.
I stitched the face on in the same yarn, in the colour pearl grey (52).
