Use this crochet pattern to make your own Santa Baby Hat in 3 sizes from newborn to 1 year old.

This is the first piece in my new 3 part Santa Baby Set of crochet patterns. Stay tuned for the booties pattern and diaper cover pattern coming in the next few weeks. This set would make a lovely baby shower gift, or a gift for any occasion with the variety of sizes available.

With lots of photos and easy to understand instructions, a crocheter of any skill level could complete this project.
