Crochet baby hats - my favorite patterns

Crochet baby hat

I've crochet a lot of baby hats and I can tell you that they are very easy to crochet. All you need is a little attention to the pattern and the right crochet hook.
You will see that some of the patterns will tell you to finish the row in a certain place, so pay attention to that, otherwise your seam will be very visible.
Another thing is you need to take in consideration the material you work with, because some patterns might make your hat look to big when using a type of hook. Just switch to a smaller hook and everything will be just fine.

A crochet hat is the perfect gift, especially if you crochet some booties also and make it a set. You can create so many models and combinations!
