Making a Shell Crochet Infant Hat

March 8, 2016

Shell Crochet Infant HatI wanted to make a hat for a gift and needed a larger infant size. I googled on the internet for patterns and found this one. It is suppose to fit infants 6-12 months. The shell detail would show much better with yarn that isn't fuzzy. The yarn is very soft and fun. The video said this pattern takes just under a half hour, it took me an hour.
