Baby Cherub Hat is a classic Scandinavian “baby devil’s hat” - but with a twist. It has 3 small “points” across the forehead instead of 1 big one. The pattern includes instructions to make a number of different edges and ties. The hat is worked in the round bottom up and requires (almost) no finishing and it has no seams that might bother a little baby’s head.
