This is a pattern for a crochet preemie hat made with super fine (category 1), 100% acrylic yarn and size E/4 (3.50 mm) hook.

Note that this pattern is available only in one size: preemie (premature baby). You can use a slightly heavier yarn and a bigger size hook to achieve a larger size baby hat.

The finished hat measures about 10 inches in circumference and 4 inches in height.

The skill level is advanced beginner. If you know how to make front post and back post double crochets, this pattern will be a breeze for you. The finished hat has a very soft and delicate texture. It will be perfect for hospital donations.

The pattern is written using US crochet terminology. This is a very detailed pattern, and includes the stitch count for each round.

This pattern cannot be redistributed. However, you have the permission to sell finished items made from this pattern.
