This pattern is for a little cloche for babies - newborn (16 inch circ), 6 months (18 inch circ) and 12 months (20 inch circ). The hat makes a brilliant gift because it works up very quickly and because of the open mesh crocheting will fit baby for several months as he or she grows! It is a light weight hat, more suitable for spring and autumn.
