A dear friend of mine wanted a hat that looked like a cupcake for a baby gift, so after some playing with textures and colors, the Cupcake Puff Hat was born! This hat is a super sweet, super soft little beanie that is adorable for babies, toddlers and children alike! Different color pallets will give the hat a whole new look.

This pattern contains SIX size options! There are separate pages in the pattern for:

~ Newborn
~ 3-6 months
~ 9-12 months
~ Toddler (1-3 years) and
~ Child (3-10 years)
~ Adult

With instructions on how to make the hat bigger or smaller. I strongly suggest measuring your work as you go to make sure that your hat will fit your little (or big!) one. If it is working up larger, work less rows. If it is working up small, work more. :)

You can use any #4 Worsted yarn for this project, but in my opinion, the soft yarns are SO much nicer. You will end up with a coarser, more rigid hat (possibly larger) otherwise. Note: that the puffs are a bit of a yarn eater!

I have also included a quick tutorial on how to make your own labels/tags (separate download from the pattern).

As always, you are free to sell and gift your finished product as much as you’d like, but please do not copy, rewrite, or resell my pattern.

Because this is a digital file, there will be no refunds given. BUT I am more than happy to help you succeed with this pattern, so please contact me if you run into trouble! :)
