Every preemie baby needs a sweet hat. This basic free baby hat is a quick one-size knit that will impress any tiny newborn, and washable Wooly Worsted superwash merino is oh so soft. It only takes two small amounts of yarn, so it’s a great stash buster and an easy gift to make for a hospital or a new arrival.

Who it’s for: Level 1-2, First Stitches to Finding Your Rhythm. If you can knit and purl and you’re still looking things up, you have what you need. It’s worked in the round on double-pointed needles, so it’s a nice way to practice them. Stuck? Our Knitting Knowledge tutorials are here to help.
