The little bit of elastic in Fixation knits up into the perfect little baby hat. The fabric’s stretch hugs the head nice and snug. There are several choices of mixed colorways in both pinks and blues for the traditional-minded newborn. The solid colors are fine too. If you are looking for a baby gift you can have ready before you go to bed tonight, this is it! This is a free pattern!
