Premature to newborn baby ribbed hat

Babies that arrive a little earlier than planned need some extra special love and attention. Premature babies can lose heat quickly so these hats are a perfect start to creating something practical as well as beautiful. Each hat is knitted in the round to avoid seams which can be uncomfortable for the delicate skin of tiny babies. They use the softest 4ply acrylic yarn – acrylic in case any babies are allergic to wool, in addition to being machine washable. The hats come in 4 sizes, allowing you to knit the perfect size for your preemie, or alternatively knit all 4 sizes for donating to your local NICU. With every stitch you will be wishing the baby well, as well as bringing a smile to the worried parents. The ribbed stitch brim can be folded to suit the baby wearing it, showing a very delicate little lace border. The rib is a good stretchy fabric that will hold on to baby's head securely. The largest size will stretch to fit a full term baby too!
