Here is a pretty little lacy baby beanie

I made this pattern as an experiment, to see how things worked out with different yarns, using the same pattern and the same hook.

The results, although fairly predictable, were as written. The lighter yarn produces a newborn size. The slightly heavier yarn produced one size larger. I like the variation, and I like how the yarns change the look of the stitches in the very same design.

For the newborn, you will need about 75 yards of light worsted (dk/8ply); for 3-6 months, you will need about 100 yards of worsted weight (aran/10ply); a 4mm hook for both; a yarn needle, and some sort of embellishment if you wish, like a tiny ribbon or button.

It’s been a fun project, I hope you enjoy the result.
