One of my favorite things I have knit for the baby is this sweet little aviator style hat.
This is from the free pattern, Aviatrix, and it's knit using Blue Sky Alpacas Sport.
It's hard to capture the hat's unbelievable cuteness with it just laying flat like this... It seriously needs to be modeled for the full effect. Unfortunately, there were no teddy bears around with the appropriate head size, so we'll just have to wait until baby arrives to get the perfect shot.
I know this hat will be warm and cozy and I love how it buttons around the chin. If I had more time, I would love to make this in every size and in many different yarn and button combinations.
Did you know that this pattern actually comes in 7 different sizes with options for 3 different yarn weights?!? Amazing, right?
