Spiral Baby Hat
Use the Spiral Baby Hat crochet pattern for a warm and snuggly hat. The pattern is suitable for both baby boys and baby girls. The simple baby hat crochet pattern uses bulky yarn for a hat that works up super fast. Try it in Lion Brand Scarfie or Red Heart Soft Essentials or another bulky weight yarn. The beginner-friendly pattern is easy to master. The crochet hat pattern is adjustable. Instructions are included for both a newborn and 3-6 months size. The pattern avoids gaps that can occur with bulky yarn by working the stitches in the back loop. Change it up and reverse the hat if you want the spiral pattern to appear only at the brim.
