About the patterns
Really any baby patterns are fine, and you can knit in any wool you like, all sizes and shapes welcome!
But, please use acrylic wool, as the hats will have to be washed at very high temperatures.
The patterns below are either for knitting in the round (using 2.5mm DPNs) or on a pair of 2.5mm knitting needles then sewn together. Simply choose the pattern you wish to use. Crochet patterns are also available separately.
Your support is really appreciated.

TENSION – is not important as long as you have used the stated size of needle and wool. If you wish to use double knit and 4.0mm needles then feel free to do so, though your hat will be bigger
