Original pattern notes:

After recently knitting Kelly Herdich’s In Threes Baby Cardigan for my soon-to-be-born granddaughter, I wanted to knit a little beanie to match! The quick and easy 1-2-3 Baby Beanie is what I came up with!

Why 1-2-3?

This wee beanie can be knit in sizes 0-3, 3-6, or 6-12 months with either 1, 2, or 3 sections of garter stitch striping; it’s up to you. :)

I’m really pleased with how it turned out; it’s cute, it’s easy to knit, and it works up quickly with worsted weight yarn. Of course, you don’t have to knit an In Threes Baby Cardi to make one for the special baby in your life; this pattern should match nicely with just about any baby knit that uses garter stitch rows or edging!
